Trip Summary

Fishing For Sailfish off the coast of Fort Lauderdale Well the last couple of weeks has been a reel up and down roller coaster fishing for these sail fish. Last couple of weeks we’ve had some days where we were catching 3 to 5 sails a day than out of no where current shifted and went from north current to south current and bam just like that the bite slowed down. Don’t get me wrong one here and one there but not in the numbers we were catching. THAN north current again and bam now more sails being caught. But luckily there have been a few black fin tunas as well as a few bonitos to fill in some of the slow gaps. But catches like in these photos shows you YEP it is worth fishing here with a good chance of catching a fish of a lifetime. So yes it is worth the small price to remember days like these for a lifetime. So contact Fishing Booker and have them set you up with the right boat for you and your family or guests and remember here on the Taco Hooked Up boat FREIE LIVE BAIT and just a 6 min ride till we are in the ocean so less travel time and more fishing time.

OCT FISHING OFF FORT LAUDERDALE WOW
OCT FISHING OFF FORT LAUDERDALE WOW
October 1, 2025
• Fort Lauderdale Deep Sea Fishing Report – October Wow, wow, wow — what a month for fishing in Fort Lauderdale! The mahi mahi showed up a little late this year, but when they did, they came in thick and hungry. We’ve been catching beautiful gaffer-size mahi, ranging from 8 to 15 pounds — an unexpected pleasure for this time of year. The sailfish are starting to show up strong too, mostly in 170 to 200 feet of water. Lately, we’ve even been spotting them chasing ballyhoo in the shallows — a great sign that sailfish season in Fort Lauderdale is just getting started. Even more exciting, we found mahi mahi feeding in under 100 feet of water! Casting live bait to them in the shallows has made for some incredible light-tackle action and unforgettable fishing days. The weather has been absolutely gorgeous — calm seas, clear blue water, and air temperatures between 67° and 75°F. No hurricanes for us this year, but it looks like the storms that passed through the Caribbean pushed plenty of fish our way. All in all, October was a fantastic month for deep sea fishing off Fort Lauderdale. Looking ahead, November should bring red-hot sailfishing and a good shot at wahoo as well. The water temps and conditions are lining up perfectly for an amazing winter bite. If you’re ready to experience the action, come fish with us aboard Hooked Up, one of the top-rated Fort Lauderdale fishing charters. Whether you’re after mahi mahi, sailfish, wahoo, or just a great day on the water, we’ll make sure you have an unforgettable trip.
