What types of hammerhead shark fishing charters are common?

Deep Sea fishing is the most popular type of fishing for hammerhead shark as well as nearshore fishing, inshore fishing, and jetty fishing.

The most common fishing techniques are heavy tackle fishing, bottom fishing, and light tackle fishing but trolling and live bait fishing are popular as well.

How much do hammerhead shark fishing charters cost?

Prices for hammerhead shark can range anywhere from about $700 to $4,305, but the average price for a half day trip for hammerhead shark is $1,427. The average price for a full day trip for hammerhead shark is $2,834.

Is booking a fishing guide worth the money?

Hiring a guide provides a number of benefits and many choose to book a fishing guide for a combination of experience, local knowledge, convenience, and cost-effectiveness.

Working with experienced fishing guides who know the best local spots and techniques can dramatically increase your odds of a great day. Having someone who is on the water every day and knows the area like the back of their hand is going to give you the best chances of success.

Booking a guide is also more cost effective, especially if you only get out a handful of times per year. When you consider all of the costs you would incur on your own such as the price of a boat, maintenance, insurance, gas, high-quality gear and tackle, repairs, and more, you’ll find that DIY is sometimes not worth the expense.

Even if you’ve got a great setup already in your home waters, booking a guide also provides a great opportunity to experience new techniques, new locations, or even a chance at a new target species to knock off the bucket list.

    We had a great experience with Captain Bryan. He is knowledgeable and very personable. He has good stories and a friendly pup. It was my dream to catch a shark and boy did we get lucky! I will not forget that day!

    Great day of fishing with Steven! Very kind and worked his butt off to land us on the fish. Used drone with fly the bait out 500 yard from beach and drop in the sand bar.

    Trip: Beach Shark Fishing

  • ★★★★★
    Fernando & his assistant were nice. We went in December which was very cold and we didn’t see any action. It was not at all what I expected. When we got to the beach, the rigs were all set up and baits were taken by kayak by the guides about 300 yards out. My 10 year old was bored very quickly by sitting in chairs, in the cold & dark. There’s no instruction or casting, just sitting behind rods for 4 hours. I’m sure it’s extremely exciting if something is caught but there’s no action or interaction otherwise.

    Great time on the water yesterday. Had some friends with me from England who never fished. They had an amazing time. Nick our mate was awesome. Caught a few barracuda and we missed 2 big fish.

    Trip: Miami Offshore Trolling Fun!

  • ★★★★★
    Captain Brad and his first mate were great for our outing. Since my kids were new to ocean fishing, he kept us within a few miles of shore and knew some rocky pockets where we hauled in many fish. We had a blast. One reason I chose Capt Brad was the 33’ boat which was roomy to maneuver for our party of six. They are friendly and accommodating.

  • ★★★★★
    Captain Christian was awesome. We had an absolute blast with him. His knowledge of the area, fishing, history and all things maritime were unreal. Christian is the real deal. A fantastic captain, guide, comedian and terrific guy all round. I’d definitely fish with him again if I’m back in the area.

    Trip: Inshore Fishing Charter Daytona Beach

  • ★★★★★
    We had an outstanding day fishing with Rooster & Braxton on Christmas Eve Day. We limited out on red snappers in a hour with a 12 pound average. Would recommend Rooster as a captain because he is very knowledgeable & patient with novice anglers.

    Trip: Captain Daniel's Fish Frenzy

  • ★★★★★
    My family and I had an epic day with Taco! Taco and his mate were super welcoming as we jumped on board, and it was clear he runs a super clean and well maintained sportfish. We were on fish in no time with my brother-in-law fighting the fish of his life, a giant Amberjack! From there, we spread the kites and caught mahi, bonita, and a beautiful sailfish. Whole fam had a blast and Taco stole the show, we'll be back! – Jonathan with Captain Experiences

    My son and I had a great time fishing with Captain Tim. He's a great guy to fish with and was a lot of fun to fish with. While we caught many fish, it would have been better if the bigger ones cooperated.

    We had a great trip with Corey. In spite of strong winds forcing us to less productive areas, we caught 6 assorted keepers - including a couple of 25" reds - and released a bunch more. Corey was very friendly and accommodating, and his boat was very comfortable and well equipped.

All excited the food was good at the restaurant Danny’s group at the restaurant was perfect. Danny is the owner was really phenomenal, on his appreciation of our decision to do business with his Services offered.
