Ready for the fishing trip of a lifetime? Our 10-hour private swordfish expedition off the coast of Miami is calling your name. We're talking about battling monsters from the deep that can tip the scales at over 1,000 pounds. This isn't your average day on the water – it's a test of skill, patience, and pure grit that'll have you hooked from the moment we leave the dock.
Picture this: You're 30 miles offshore, the Miami skyline a distant memory. The deep blue Atlantic stretches in every direction. Your crew's dialed in, ready to put you on the fish of your dreams. We're targeting swordfish using cutting-edge deep-drop techniques that'll challenge even seasoned anglers. But here's the kicker – while we're hunting for broadbills, there's a good chance we'll tangle with other deep-sea beasts like escolar, pomfret, or even a massive bluefin tuna. It's a full-day affair, so come prepared for an adrenaline-packed 10 hours that'll fly by faster than you can say "Fish on!"
Daytime swordfishing isn't for the faint of heart. We're dropping baits way down – sometimes over 1,500 feet – using electric reels to get to where the big boys hang out. Once that bait hits the strike zone, it's game on. You'll be watching that rod tip like a hawk, waiting for that telltale thump that signals a swordfish has found your offering. When it happens, hold on tight. The fight can last hours, with these gladiators of the deep known for their acrobatic jumps and dogged determination. We've got top-of-the-line gear to give you the edge, but in the end, it's just you versus one of the ocean's most legendary fighters.

Swordfish: The star of the show, these behemoths can grow over 1,000 pounds. They're known for their intelligence and fighting spirit, often putting on aerial displays that'll leave you slack-jawed. While we can target them year-round in Miami, fall and winter tend to see the biggest specimens. Landing one of these is a true badge of honor in the fishing world.
Mahi Mahi (Dolphinfish): These neon-colored speedsters are a blast to catch and even better to eat. They travel in schools, so when you find them, it's often non-stop action. Mahi can grow up to 60 pounds, but even the smaller "schoolies" put up a great fight. Peak season is late spring through summer, but we see them year-round in Miami's warm waters.
Wahoo: If you're looking for speed, wahoo is your fish. These streamlined predators can hit speeds of 60 mph and strike with incredible force. They're most common in the summer months, but can be caught year-round. Wahoo meat is prized for its delicate flavor and firm texture – it's like the filet mignon of the sea.
Blackfin Tuna: Don't let their smaller size fool you – blackfin tuna punch way above their weight class. These footballs with fins are found year-round in Miami, but really heat up in the fall. They school up and can create epic topwater feeding frenzies. Plus, they make for some of the best sashimi you'll ever taste.
Look, if you're itching for a fishing trip that'll give you stories for years to come, this is it. We're talking about the chance to battle fish that most anglers only dream about. Our crew's got the know-how to put you on the fish, and the passion to make sure you have a blast doing it. Whether you're a seasoned pro or it's your first time offshore, we've got you covered. So what are you waiting for? Grab your spot on the boat, and let's go make some fishing history together. The swordfish are waiting, and trust me, you don't want to miss this.

Blackfin tuna are the smallest tuna species, but what they lack in size they make up for in numbers and fight. Most are 15-25 pounds, topping out around 40. You'll find them in big schools from the surface down to about 800 feet. They love structure, so we target them around wrecks, reefs, and floating debris. Blackfin are here year-round, but fishing is best in fall and winter. They're lightning fast and will test your stamina on light tackle. The meat is dark red and delicious - great for sashimi. To catch them, we'll often chum heavily to get a feeding frenzy going. Then it's as simple as dropping a small live bait into the mix. When the bite is on, it's non-stop action that'll wear you out quick.
Mahi Mahi are real beauties - electric blue and green when alive, fading to yellow after being caught. They're usually 3-5 feet long and 15-30 pounds, but can get over 80 pounds. You'll find them near floating debris and weed lines in warm offshore waters. They're fast swimmers and incredible jumpers when hooked. Peak season is summer through fall off Miami. Anglers love targeting mahi for their acrobatic fights and tasty white meat. To catch 'em, troll rigged ballyhoo or squid near floating structure. Pro tip: once you hook one, keep the boat in gear - there's often a whole school following. Mahi are one of the best-eating fish out there, so be ready for some excellent fish tacos after your trip.
Swordfish are the gladiators of the deep - big, powerful, and armed with that distinctive bill. They average 200-400 pounds but can top 1,000. We target them in waters 1,200-1,800 feet deep, using special techniques to reach those depths. Swordfish feed mostly at night, so that's traditionally the best time to catch them. But daytime deep-dropping has become popular too. They put up an epic battle - fights can last hours. The meat is excellent, with a firm texture perfect for grilling. When rigging baits, I like to use two chemical lights - one near the hook and one about 15 feet up the leader. That extra flash really seems to attract bites in the dark depths. Swordfishing isn't easy, but landing one of these giants is an angler's dream.
Wahoo are sleek, torpedo-shaped fish with striking blue stripes. They're built for speed, clocking in at 60 mph, making them one of the fastest fish in the ocean. You'll find wahoo in deep blue waters, often near drop-offs or underwater structures. They average 3-5 feet but can reach over 8 feet and 180 pounds. Wahoo are a prized catch for their blistering runs and delicious, firm white meat. Peak season here is July through November. To target them, we'll troll at high speeds with wire leaders - their razor sharp teeth will slice through mono. My go-to lure is a purple and black Ilander with a ballyhoo. When you hook one, hang on tight and get ready for the fight of your life.
