The exceptional Party Boat Fishing, run by Captain Stu offers unrivaled reef and nearshore trips. A family business, Capt. Stu is the fourth generation of fishermen in his family and is committed to providing a fun, productive time to all aboard.

The Drift My Boat is a 85' party fishing boat, designed to carry up to 60 passengers, all of whom will fish off the side of the boat. This party boat runs tours every single day in the prolific waters out of Fort Lauderdale.

Everything you'll need in order to fish will be provided by Capt. Stu, including rods, reels, and bait. He'll also be happy to clean and fillet your catch so you can take it home and taste the fruits of your labor.

On this boat, you'll go bottom fishing for Snapper, Grouper, Porgy, Grunt, and other small to medium-sized bottom fish. Most fish caught are in the 1-2 pound range and they are good eating fish. Some trips even catch bigger game fish such as sharks.

You will be accompanied by an experienced captain and mate, who will guide you and take you about one mile offshore to the Fort Lauderdale reef.

Feel free to bring your kids and turn this into an educational experience. You'll spend some quality family time while making some great memories together! All you need to bring is some food and drinks for your refreshment, and you're all set.

Please know, there is a risk of seasickness. Should you be prone to seasickness please take medication prior to the trip.

With Party Boat Fishing, you'll get a fantastic fishing experience for next to nothing, and you may even make some new friends. Hop aboard!

Overall great bang for your buck

Party Boat Fishing - 1:30 PM on March 8, 2026 • 2 adults

My husband and I are fishermen from Northern Ontario and wanted to try something different down in Florida. My husband caught one Strawberry Grouper, and I didn't catch anything. We got many bites throughout the process, and the crew was very helpful to give us tips and tricks to help increase our chances of catching fish. Other people were pulling in fish which was cool to witness. I would recommend this excursion as a great introductory experience into deep sea fishing. It was a great bang for the buck. 

I am prone to motion sickness, and even though I took all the medication before hand, I still got sick. Beware of this. Still had a great overall experience.

Amazing fishing and great crew

Party Boat Fishing on March 30, 2026 • 1 adult

Its amazing how the crew on this boat took care of the customers. The day i went out it was 6-8 foot seas with the occasional 10 footer and mostly everyone was over the sude the entire trip. The crew knew exactly what to do and gave them tips on how to feel better. Im pretty sure everyone caught a fish that day but with the elements it made it kinda hard for the beginners. I got myself 2 nice mutton snapper and a bubch of triggerfish. Amazing trip would 100% recommend to anyone trying to get out on the water with family for a low cost. Just check the weather beforehand.

Great boat and crew. Lots of fun!

Party Boat Fishing – Night on April 8, 2026 • 4 adults

So fun spending a few hours out fishing with friends and family.  Even if you don't catch any fish, it's great to get out on the water to relax.  Captain and crew were great... very friendly and attentive!  I was not aware of the parking fee, and the recommended tips per crew member that they pushed seemed a bit much, so the trip ended up costing a bit more than expected, but all in all a very enjoyable outing!  I would recommend to anyone interesting in a fun group outing.

Party Boat Fishing – Night on May 1, 2026 • 2 adults

We showed up a little later than expected due to the drawbridge but the whole team was super understanding. even gave us a courtesy call. Prepare for Los Olas bridge opening on the 15 and 45. Brian and Nadim were awesome. Crew were there to help with a moments notice but were not overbearing or condescending at any point. Loved that Brian would take interesting fish around the boat and give some facts and shout out to Nadim for sending us some photos while our hands were bait-y. Would reccomend bringing your own hand sanitizer or a bottle of wash-water as theres no water in the heads other than the toilet.

Amazing experience!

Party Boat Fishing on August 13, 2025 • 2 adults

Amazing experience! I’ll start by saying just make sure you have the right expectation going in (which they set very well in their description prior to booking the trip). If you want to catch a trophy fish and stock your freezer for a year, this probably isn’t the trip for you. If you want to get out on the water while you’re in the area and have some fun, this trip PERFECT! Very reasonably priced, and the captain and crew were very knowledgeable and helpful. Our first mate Josh was by himself because of a coworker cancelation but he did a wonderful job and was very attentive to everybody, despite being very busy. Overall, I highly recommend this trip!
