Gear Up and Cast Out

On this trip, we're all about versatility. We'll be using a mix of techniques to maximize your chances of a great catch. Expect to do some bottom fishing for those tasty grouper and snapper, and we might break out the trolling gear if we spot some pelagics cruising by. We provide all the gear you'll need – top-notch rods, reels, and bait. Just bring your game face and maybe a snack or two. Oh, and don't forget the camera – you'll want proof when you're telling your buddies about the monster you landed!

Species You'll Want to Hook

Tarpon: Known as the "Silver King," these prehistoric powerhouses are the stuff of fishing legend. Tarpon can grow over 6 feet long and put up a fight that'll have your arms burning. They're catch-and-release only, but the thrill of landing one is a memory you'll never forget. Spring and early summer are prime tarpon time in Miami, when they show up in big numbers to spawn.

King Mackerel: These speedsters are like the sports cars of the sea. King mackerel, or "kingfish" as we call 'em, can hit speeds of up to 60 mph when they're chasing bait. They're known for their smoking runs and acrobatic leaps. We typically find them in the cooler months, from fall through spring, and they're a blast to catch on light tackle.

Mahi Mahi: Also known as dorado or dolphinfish (though they're not related to dolphins), mahi mahi are some of the most beautiful fish in the ocean. With their vibrant blues, greens, and golds, they're a sight to behold. But they're not just pretty – they're delicious too. Mahi are hard fighters and great jumpers, making them a favorite among anglers. We see them most often in the warmer months, from late spring through early fall.

Crevalle Jack: These bruisers might not win any beauty contests, but what they lack in looks, they make up for in pure muscle. Crevalle jacks are notorious for their powerful runs and never-say-die attitude. They're around pretty much year-round, but we see the biggest ones in the fall and winter. When a big jack grabs your bait, hold on tight!

Black Grouper: If you're looking for a fish to fill your cooler (and your belly), black grouper is hard to beat. These bottom-dwellers are prized for their firm, white flesh and mild flavor. They're ambush predators, using their large mouths to inhale their prey. Catching them requires finesse and patience, as you need to coax them out of their rocky hideouts. We find them year-round, but the bigger ones tend to move to deeper water in the summer.
