Our personal favorite trip. We will be running about 55-60 miles out to the gulfstream to troll with heavy tackle for Tuna, Wahoo, Mahi and Sailfish. This trip can be great year round and is also very good in the winter months for Wahoo and Tuna. We will also do a little bottom fishing on this trip if the trolling is slow.

This trip allows us to push out even farther in pursuit of pelagics and hard-pulling bottom fish. The range of this trip can vary from 10-30 miles depending on where the bite is. This trip allows for a greater likelihood of encountering Mahi Mahi on the troll and tasty bottom fish like Grouper and Snapper. During certain times of the year casting poppers, jigging, and live baiting around weed lines can be very productive as well.
