Fishing in South Florida

When it comes to fishing, there's hardly a better place to visit than Florida. Hop aboard a South Florida fishing charter, and you'll see just why. This untamed land is a force to be reckoned with and, as the sunniest part of the Sunshine State, it's magnificent throughout the year. Thanks to its tropical climate, it holds some of the most interesting fish species around.

Everything's in the cards when you're fishing in South Florida. The shallow saltwater will have you reeling in anything from Trout, Redfish, and Tarpon, to Permit, Bonefish, and Sheepshead. Fishing inland will yield prized Largemouth and Peacock Bass. Going on a half day trip is a great choice if you want to target these, and it's fun for the whole family!

The numerous reefs off the coast boast great numbers of Snapper, Grouper, and Amberjack, while the deep offshore waters hide some truly magnificent game fish. Marlin, Sailfish, Swordfish, Mahi Mahi, Tuna, Wahoo… the list goes on! Make sure to book a full day trip so you have enough time to head offshore and fill your bags.

South Florida is such a fishing haven, that you'll have no trouble finding a charter to take you out. Fishing is very much a way of life here, so you can't go wrong. The Everglades, the Keys, the Gulf, or the Atlantic coast – no matter where you go, South Florida will deliver!

Rules & Regulations

Saltwater fishing licenses are included on all charters, but freshwater licenses are your responsibility. Because fishing is so important in South Florida, making sure there's enough fish to go around is a priority. That's why there are specific regulations in place, and booking a trip with a reputable captain is the best way to make sure you're fishing within the law.
