Book a trip with Hot Shot Charters and experience the thrill of Miami deep-sea fishing! Owner and operator Captain Sig Ozols is committed to providing professional guidance and an exciting adventure for anglers of all skill levels. Join him in Miami, Florida, and come see what you’ll reel in next.

Capt. Sig’s 43’ custom Ricky Scarborough allows you to fish the sea with speed and comfort. This vessel is fitted with a range of navigational gear and marine electronics, including GPS and Fishfinder. A fighting chair will help you reel in the hardest fighting catch. Meanwhile, the air-conditioned salon and a private toilet ensure that you won’t sacrifice your comfort. An experienced crew is standing by to assist in any way you need.

Capt. Sig is passionate about all kinds of fishing techniques and strategies, from light tackle fishing inshore to big game fishing and saltwater fly fishing. Whether you are a seasoned angler or a novice, he is ready to help you try your hand at a variety of methods such as bottom fishing, trolling, and kite fishing. Capt. Sig provides top-of-the-line gear by Penn, Shimano, and Daiwa. 

Hot Shot Charters include a fishing license, gear, bottled water, and soft drinks. The boat is conveniently docked at Dinner Key Marina Pier 1 in Coconut Grove. You are welcome to take home any keeper fish you catch, and Capt. Sig will gladly clean and bag it for you.

Come aboard for a thrilling experience and a catch to remember!

This is far and away the best charter I’ve been on! Captain Sig knows his business like no one else out there and made sure everyone was on game start to finish. He knows the waters and techniques inside out and makes sure everything’s going just as it should. The mates Ray and John were fantastic, worked hard all day non-stop, and really great guys to chat with. Hot Shot is an awesome boat and they keep it in great condition, very clean, way better than other charters I’ve taken. Overall, it’s really obvious how much pride they take in their work. Got on great with everyone and next time I can be back in the area, hopefully late summer/early fall, no question Captain Sig’s the first guy I’m going to call. Can’t say enough good things about this charter - just a really great day all round and can’t wait to be back for the next one.

Great trip.

Capt. Zig and his first mate put us on the fish. Changed leaders, and spread set up to try and get bites anytime the bite felt like it was going cold. It’s nice only going out a few miles to be in trolling depth. We will use him again on our next trip.

Amazing!

Booked the trip for my husbands birthday. It was amazing! The captain was very prepared and friendly. They caught a lot of very tasty fish that we got to eat the same night. Will definitely do it again. It was a spectacular experience my husband won’t stop talking about, from the types of fish they saw to how knowledgeable the boat crew was. As I mentioned simply AMAZING.
