Come enjoy the adventurous South Florida fishing lifestyle aboard the Wahoo Fishing Charters! Located in beautiful Pompano Beach, the trips offered here are available year round. Captain Mike is a third-generation fisherman, who’s been fishing since he was a kid. He gained lots of experience catching fish in Florida, including the Everglades, but also traveling to the Bahamas.

Spent a day aboard Capt. Mike’s 34’ SeaVee, that’s powered by a 500 HP Cummins engine. This powerful engine does wonders when you’re after offshore fishing spots and cuts down the travel time. The boat comes with the latest navigational equipment from Garmin Marine and a JL audio sound system. There’s enough room for 6 guests to fish in comfort.

Whether you are looking to land a trophy Sailfish or battle a Swordfish, look no further! There’s a special trip that targets these toughest fish and you can also go after other big game species, such as Wahoo, Tuna, and Mahi Mahi. If you’re more at the beginner’s end of spectrum, you can stay closer to the shore and target Kingfish, Cobia, Tilefish, and all kinds of Snappers.

Capt. Mike provides top of the line fishing equipment. Just bring your sunglasses and smiles for a fun day of fishing. There are soft drinks on the boat but feel free to bring your drinks and snacks on board.

Wahoo Fishing Charters will put you on the fish so you can experience what this lifestyle is all about!

Captain Mike is born and raised in South Florida, growing up on the water. He comes from a long line of well-experienced fishermen. His Grandfather and father were both able to pass on their vast knowledge of everything from tying flies, scouting for bait, fly fishing and more. Capt. Mike grew up fishing & free diving locally and in the Bahamas. He started working at a local tackle shop at a young age. He has been both a Captain and mate on many fishing boats in the area as well as running a Commercial Swordfishing boat for over 10 years. Capt. Mike's love for all things water is what attracted him to become a boat Captain. In his time off he continues to feed his passion in the vast waterways of Florida, including the Everglades, and traveling to the Bahamas.
