Spend the day with The Way Sportfishing and find out what the fishing in Dania Beach is all about!

These waters are known for Amberjack, Great Barracuda, Sailfish, Bull Shark, Black Grouper, Mutton Snapper, Yellowtail Snapper, Blackfin Tuna, Bonito, Mahi Mahi, Wahoo, and more. On these trips, you can expect to troll and bottom fish using light or heavy tackle. Kids are welcome!

Your boat for the day is a 29' Center console with room for 6 passengers. It comes with downriggers and all the essentials. You'll find rods, reels, and tackle waiting for you, along with lures. Live bait is on offer, but you should ask the captain whether you'll be catching it yourself. There's no need to buy a fishing license, just show up ready for some fishing!

It's recommended to bring snacks, sunglasses, and sunscreen. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but avoid hard liquor and glass bottles. Keep in mind that some fish may have harvest limits or closed seasons. Your captain will help you follow regulations while you fish.

Your trip with The Way Sportfishing is just a click away, so why not make it happen?

Fantastic trip.
Half Day Offshore - 1:05 PM on March 16, 20262 adults
my son and I went fishing, and had an amazing time. Highly skilled captain who loves fishing and knows his local waters. We had high winds but he was able to get us off shore where we landed a large King fish. He then rolled out the Kite and we locked on to a gorgeous sail fish. It fought for over 30 minutes, and when we brought it alongside the bost we took some pictures of it and realesed it. It was a gorgeous color and deserves to be live and free in the ocean. Overall an amazing trip, we’re definitely coming back. Thank you captain.

Great trip for the family with 10 to 15-year-old kids
Family Fun Catch & Release Special! on March 23, 20263 adults3 children
Our captain was phenomenal. We had a wonderful trip and caught 4 tuna. It was a perfect length for our family to do a short little excursion and catch some fish instead of just sitting at the beach all day. We will definitely do this again next time we’re in town.

Half Day Offshore - 1:05 PM on April 1, 20265 adults
We had a great day, unfortunately the fish weren’t biting. The weather was overcast and windy at times. We focused on sail fishing using kites. We also went for black tailed tuna using a similar method. We would definitely use him again.

Barracuda!
Half Day Offshore on April 1, 20263 adults
The captain was very knowledgeable and navigated the rough waters well. he was very good with communication and letting us know beforehand where to be etc. We didn' catch anything (not without Captain Jed trying!) on the open water but we did catch a barracuda on our way back! The day was good, the wind/waves were a little tough but it was a good experience.
