About Your Trip

Experience the thrill of Day fishing in Miami with Captain Anthony, where the open waters create the perfect setting for an unforgettable adventure. With trips ranging from 4 to 8 hours, you’ll fish anywhere from a mile inshore to over 10 miles offshore, depending on the conditions and the species you’re after. Whether you’re dropping lines over local reefs, exploring deep wrecks, or chasing down Mahi Mahi, Captain Anthony’s knowledge of Miami’s waters ensures you’ll always have the best chance at success.

On these trips, we use a variety of techniques, including bottom fishing, trolling, and live baiting, to target an impressive array of species. Depending on the season and conditions, you’ll have the chance to reel in Mangrove Snapper, Yellowtail Snapper, Mutton Snapper, Grouper, Tarpon, Sharks, Mackerel, Mahi, Tuna, Cobia, Sailfish, Snook, and more. Whether you’re chasing a prized catch or simply looking for non-stop action, the thrill of daytime fishing makes for an unforgettable experience.

Aboard a fully equipped fishing vessel, you’ll find everything you need for a comfortable and productive trip. The boat is outfitted with top-quality rods, reels, tackle, and bait, as well as state-of-the-art electronics to locate fish, and deck lighting for seamless fishing after dark. Fishing licenses and cleaning are included, so all you need to bring are your favorite snacks and drinks. Families are welcome, and this trip is a fantastic way to introduce kids to the fun and excitement of fishing in a safe and memorable way.

My son and I had a great time inshore fishing with captain Anthony. He immediately put us on a few epic tarpon, wow what an amazing experience!! He knows all the great spots to fish. We caught Jack Crevalle, snapper, shark, tarpon and a few others. Anthony is super friendly and ensures you are well taken care of and have a great time. I highly recommend using him as your Miami fishing guide. I will...

We went out with Captain Anthony last night and had a wonderful time. A native Miamian, he knew the area and knewvwhere the fish were. We had my 12 year old nephew with us and Anthony was great with him. He took the time to instruct the young lad in proper technique and made sure his rig was baited up and in the water as much as possible. The result? My little nephew outfished us all and he was thrilled. The only problem is we cant shut him up. He is still going on about the adventure declaring it his "best fishing trip ever". We tied into several tarpon that bested us novice tarpon fisherman, but came home with a nice mess of large mangrove snapper that we a lot of fun to catch and are now being breaded, fried and served up with slaw, hushpuppies and fries for a real southern lunch. The big ones are going on the grill whole to be deboned table-side with garlic lemon butter and served with mushroom risotto and ceasar salad. Plenty for the whole family. I heartily recommend a trip out with Captain Anthony for a good time, good eats and memories for a lifetime. Thank you Captain!
