About Your Trip

On this extraordinary offshore fishing experience in Miami, FL, you'll head into the blue water of the Gulf of Mexico to chase species include Blackfin Tuna, Sailfish, Wahoo, Yellowtail Snapper, and more! You'll be in the expert hands of Captain Eric, a seasoned angler and captain with a passion for adventure on the high seas. You won't find another fishing charter quite like this one, where you'll be cruising aboard a sleek and speedy 39' Midnight Express center console that's the envy of all other boats on the water.

This vessel—purpose-built for offshore fishing—combines some of the best attributes of sportfishers and center consoles, with a sleek hull design, 360º of fishing space, and a large t-top to provide shade. But it's not just the boat; Captain Eric is a master of his craft, with a wealth of knowledge and experience that he's eager to share with you. He'll take you to the best fishing spots and provide expert guidance on everything from trolling techniques to reeling in your catch.

And what a catch it will be! The waters off the coast of Miami are teeming with a variety of game fish, from majestic sailfish to hard-fighting tuna, snapper, and grouper. Whether you're an experienced angler looking for a trophy catch or a novice hoping to hook your first fish, Captain Eric will tailor the experience to your skill level and interests.

As you bask in the warmth of the Miami sun and the thrill of the open sea, you'll know that you're on a fishing charter that's truly one-of-a-kind. So come aboard, cast your line, and let the adventure begin!
