Highly Migratory – Chesapeake 53'
Book your next trip with Highly Migratory and find out what makes fishing in North Miami Beach so amazing.
These waters are known for Swordfish, Sailfish, Wahoo, Blackfin Tuna, Mahi Mahi, King Mackerel, Mutton Snapper, Yellowtail Snapper, Cubera Snapper, Black Grouper, and many more species – with any luck, they’ll make your reel scream.
On these trips, you can use multiple fishing techniques depending on the season, weather, water conditions, and angler capabilities. From light tackle - Yellowtail snapper fishing for kids, to live-baiting for Mahi, jigging for Tuna, speed trolling for wahoo, or deep dropping for Swordfish, we are there for your next epic fishing adventures. Capt Matthew or Capt Remy can also show you kite fishing.
Highly Migratory is a child-friendly charter service, so the whole family can come and unplug for the day! They have child-sized and adult life vests and all required safety equipment on board. They provide drinking water and an ice box full of fresh ice for your trip.
Your vessel for the day is a Chesapeake 53’ Custom Performance fishing boat with space for 6 passengers. It has a Tuna tower, outriggers, two 80 gallons live wells, sonar, radar, fish mapping electronics, and a comfortable cabin with air conditioning and a toilet for your convenience.
You’ll have the help of a First Mate to put you on fish. Mates often work for tips and it’s customary to offer them a 10–20% tip. Your fishing license for the day is covered by the charter boat, so all you have to do is look forward to your trip! Be mindful that some species may have special rules or limited seasons. Your captain will help you follow regulations while you fish.
It’s recommended to bring rain gear, a hat, sunglasses, non-slip shoes, sunscreen (non-spray), drinks, and food of your choice. Alcohol is allowed in moderation.

4 Hour Trip – Offshore (AM) on August 31, 2024
This was my first deep sea fishing adventure. Remy and Danny made sure it was a true adventure. The weather could have been better but the experience could not have been better. They both kept us engaged on what we were doing and why. They took pride in showing us how. We learned more new things on that trip than we have in awhile. I think they were more excited than we were as we landed fish. Please let these guys take you out so you can as much fun and excitement as we did.

6 Hour Trip – Offshore on January 1, 2024
Ended up taking the 42 Freeman and that was such a great experience for my family. The weather was absolutely perfect all day and we caught some nice fish. The bite wasn’t hot most of the day but the captain and mate made up for it. These guys love to fish and it shows from the moment you arrive at the boat. No waiting around for them to go get fuel or bait, they are ready to rock and to put you on the fish. They want to know what you want to target that day and will go above and beyond to try and make that happen. For us it was our first mutton early on then we focused on finding the tuna. These guys even stayed late on the water on New Year’s Eve and that allowed my son to boat a beautiful blackfin tuna just before sunset. Hands down best charter trip we’ve been on. Absolutely recommend and can’t wait to fish with these guys again.
