Spend the day with Big Scale Fishing and get hooked on fishing in Miami! Captain Marcos will be your guide, which allows you to benefit from years of angling experience.

These waters are known for Snook, Tarpon, Jack Crevalle, Pink Snapper, Spotted Seatrout, and more – with any luck, you’ll find out for yourself!

During the trip you might be spinning, trolling, drifting, jigging, bottom fishing, or maybe something more specialized in this area. Capt. Marcos can also have you kite fishing.

Trips with Big Scale Fishing are great for kids, so get ‘em offline and onto the water! Be sure to ask if child-sized life vests are available, otherwise you should bring your own. Snacks are permitted onboard — bring your favorites to maintain your energy throughout the trip!

Capt. Marcos will bring you aboard a 22’ Center console with capacity for 3 passengers. It has and everything else you need for a productive day on the water.

Your captain will provide rods and reels, 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 a good time! Have in mind that some fish may have harvest limits or closed seasons. Simply ask and your captain can tell you more.

Don’t leave home without sunglasses, sunscreen (non-spray), bottled water, and a hat. If you’d like to bring other drinks, just ask. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but you should avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

If you have any questions about fishing with Big Scale Fishing, you can send Capt. Marcos a message down below.

1/2 Night Trip (Inshore) on June 7, 20253 adults
Captain Marcos was a great guy to have as a guide through all the flats and channels. Very calm and cool guy. Super observant of his surroundings and seems to have a vast knowledge of the water and fishing. He’s made a life out of being on a boat and knows where the fish are. He tirelessly worked whether we were trolling, drifting, or motoring from spot to spot. He gave us multiple opportunities at different species and different live bate/lures. Can’t go wrong with Captain Marcos!

On the Big Scale!
on September 20, 2024
From inshore fishing for big snooks, tarpon, trout, permit, and other exotic species to offshore fishing for billfish, groupers & snappers to even swords. This south Florida born and raised native knows the waters like the back of his hand equalling a fun memorable fishing experience. Be sure to check him out if you’re in the Miami area! 🤙🏾
