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.
