Hey there, fellow anglers! Ready for a day of non-stop action on the water? Our full-day offshore trip out of Miami Beach is your ticket to some of the best fishing Florida has to offer. We're talking sailfish, mahi-mahi, kingfish, and more—all waiting for you just beyond the shoreline. Whether you're a seasoned pro or it's your first time wetting a line, our expert crew will make sure you're in on the action from start to finish.
Picture this: You're cruising out of Miami Beach as the sun rises, the skyline fading behind you as we hit the deep blue. Our 6-person charter means plenty of elbow room and personalized attention from the crew. We'll get you set up with top-notch gear—rods, reels, tackle, you name it. And don't sweat the license; we've got you covered there too. As we reach the fishing grounds, keep your eyes peeled for diving birds and ripples on the surface—telltale signs that the fish are feeding. When we find the honey hole, it's game on!
Out here, we're all about versatility. We might start the day trolling for sailfish and mahi, dragging a spread of ballyhoo and artificial lures. If the bite's hot, we could switch it up and do some live baiting for kings or even deep dropping for swordfish. Our crew knows these waters like the back of their hand, and they're always watching for that perfect rip or weedline where the big ones hang out. We've got everything from light tackle for speedy mackerel to heavy-duty setups for when a monster decides to crash the party. Just listen to the captain, and you'll be hooked up in no time.
"The bite was consistent all day! We brought in mahi-mahi, kingfish, sailfish, and barracuda. Definitely planning another trip with this awesome crew." - Victor
"Both guys on the boat were fully committed to making sure we caught fish. We spent two days out with them and had great success each day. Truly an excellent charter experience in Miami!" - Eric
"Captain Dan and his mate were fantastic—especially with my grandson. They put in the effort to make sure he had a great experience, and he ended up catching plenty of fish! We stayed closer to shore and in the bay because the ocean was a bit rough that day, but it didn't take away from the fun. Even with a full-day booking, the time flew by. I'd definitely recommend them, especially for anyone new to fishing!" - Royce
Sailfish: The crown jewel of Miami's offshore scene. These acrobatic fighters are known for their blistering runs and spectacular aerial displays. Peak season is winter through early spring, but you can find them year-round. Hooking into a sail is like hitting the jackpot—it's a rush you won't forget.
Mahi Mahi: Also known as dorado or dolphinfish, these neon-colored speedsters are a blast to catch and even better to eat. They travel in schools, so when you find one, get ready for non-stop action. Summer is prime time, but we see good numbers from spring through fall. Nothing beats watching a bull mahi light up electric blue as it charges your bait.
King Mackerel: These toothy predators are all about the chase. We often troll for kings, and when they hit, hang on tight! They're known for scorching runs that'll make your reel scream. Fall and winter are peak seasons, but you can catch them year-round. Smoked kingfish dip is a local delicacy you've got to try.
Spanish Mackerel: Smaller cousins to the kings, these guys make up for size with pure speed. Light tackle is the way to go here—it's like trying to reel in a torpedo. They show up in big numbers during their spring and fall migrations. Perfect for anglers who want fast-paced action and tasty fillets.
Cero Mackerel: Often overlooked but a real treat to catch. These sleek predators are like Spanish mackerel on steroids. They're less common than their cousins but put up a heck of a fight when hooked. Look for them around reefs and wrecks, especially in the warmer months.
Swordfish: The gladiators of the deep. Swordfishing is a whole different ballgame—we're talking serious depth and serious muscle. These nighttime feeders can be targeted during the day with specialized deep-drop techniques. It's a test of patience and strength, but landing a broadbill is the ultimate offshore trophy.
Listen, folks, Miami's offshore fishing is world-class for a reason. Whether you're chasing that bucket list sailfish or looking to fill the cooler with mahi and mackerel, we've got you covered. Our full-day trip gives you the time and flexibility to really get after it. And with our experienced crew, top-notch gear, and intimate knowledge of these waters, you're in for one heck of a day.
Remember to pack the essentials—sunscreen, hat, snacks, and maybe some motion sickness meds if you're prone to it. We'll take care of the rest, including cleaning and filleting your catch. So what are you waiting for? The fish are biting, and your spot on the boat is calling. Give us a shout to check availability and get ready for the offshore adventure of a lifetime. Trust me, once you feel that first reel screaming, you'll be hooked for good!

I was hoping to catch some Mahi Mahi and Sailfish. I caught at least 8 Mahis - but lost count to be honest (two keepers) and 3 Barracudas (1 keeper). We followed the sea hawks, seen dolphins and flying fish. Perfect weather and lots of fishing action! Matt and Captain Daniel worked together like an oiled machine, they have been tremendously helpful and competitive to get me as much and big fish as possible. Matt even helped me setup for my subsequent Everglades tour :) Thank you guys for the incredible experience, hoping to be back in the winter!

Atlantic sailfish are the showstoppers of offshore fishing. These acrobatic fighters can top 7 feet long and 100 pounds, with that iconic sail-like dorsal fin. We find them in blue water 100-300 feet deep, often around weed lines or floating debris. Sailfish season here peaks late fall through early spring. They're lightning fast, hitting 70 mph as they slash through bait balls with their bills. The explosive strikes and aerial displays make them a favorite for sport fishing. Live bait like ballyhoo or goggle-eyes works well, slow-trolled or kite-fished. Light tackle in the 20-30 lb class maximizes the fun. The meat's good eating, but most anglers release them. Pro tip: When you see one, cast a bait right in front of it - they can't resist an easy meal.
Cero mackerel are the offshore cousins of Spanish macks. These sleek predators average 5-8 pounds but can hit 15+. You'll find them around reefs and wrecks in 30-100 feet of water. Ceros are here year-round, but spring and fall are best as bait moves through. They're fast and aggressive, chasing down schools of small fish and squid. Light tackle with 15-20 lb test gives you the best action. Try trolling small lures or live bait, or cast jigs and spoons when you spot them feeding on the surface. Ceros put up a great fight for their size, with blistering runs. The meat is excellent - firmer and milder than other mackerels. Local tip: Look for birds working over bait schools to find the fish.
King mackerel are the speedsters of nearshore waters. These sleek predators average 10-20 pounds but can top 50. Look for them from just off the beaches out to about 150 feet of water, often around reefs or wrecks. Kings are here year-round, but the big ones show up in fall and winter. They're built for speed, hitting 30 mph to chase down baitfish. Trolling with live bait like blue runners or slow-speed wire line are go-to tactics. Kings put up a great fight with blistering runs. Watch those razor-sharp teeth when you bring them in! The meat is good eating, especially when smoked. Local tip: Try slow-trolling a live bait behind the boat while bottom fishing - you might pick up a bonus king.
Mahi mahi are the perfect combo of beauty, acrobatics, and great eating. These colorful fighters average 15-30 pounds but can hit 50+. We find them in blue water 100-400 feet deep, often around floating debris or weed lines. Mahi are here year-round, but summer is peak season. They're aggressive feeders, hitting just about any bait or lure. The strikes are explosive, and they put on an aerial show. Light tackle in the 20-30 lb class is ideal for maximum fun. Trolling with ballyhoo or casting to fish you spot is effective. The meat is delicious - some of the best-eating fish in the ocean. Pro tip: When you hook one, leave it in the water. Others will often follow it to the boat, giving you shots at multiple fish.
Spanish mackerel are a blast to catch and great eating. These speedsters average 2-4 pounds but can hit 12. Look for them in coastal waters 10-40 feet deep, especially around inlets and beaches. They travel in big schools, so when you find them, the action can be non-stop. Spring and fall are prime seasons as they migrate. Spanish macks are aggressive feeders - they'll hit just about any small, shiny lure you toss their way. I like using light tackle with 10-15 lb test line for the best fight. Watch for birds diving on bait schools to find the fish. Once you locate them, troll or cast spoons, jigs, or live bait like pilchards. The meat is delicious grilled or smoked. Local tip: Try trolling two lines - one deeper, one on top - to cover more water.
Swordfish are some of the ocean's most impressive predators. These giants average 200-400 pounds but can top 1,000. You'll find them in deep, warm waters offshore, usually 1,500+ feet down. They're built for speed, hitting 60 mph to chase down squid and fish. Swordfish put up an epic fight - it's all about endurance. We target them at night when they come up to feed, using squid as bait. Drift fishing with deep-drop rigs and lots of glow sticks is the way to go. The meat is excellent eating too, firm and mild. Pro tip: Use circle hooks to improve catch rates and make release easier if you hook a small one. Swordfish season peaks here from fall through spring, but you can catch them year-round with the right techniques.
