Charter Fishing in Fort Lauderdale

fort lauderdale fishing charters Nothing compares to the thrill of wrestling a huge marlin or amberjack onto the deck of a fishing boat. The feeling of success and the exhilaration of fighting a massive creature and winning is indescribable. Luckily, for us, there is a place where you can see exotic sights and fish for sharks, marlin, tuna, and many other fish without ever leaving the United States. This place is Fort Lauderdale, Florida. If you have not fished there, you have not fished.

There is probably no better way to relax with friends or entertain a potential or special business client than a fishing trip. Some charter companies offer half-day charters for those whose busy schedule cannot accommodate a whole day off, plus three quarter and whole day trips to give guests more time to enjoy the great Florida weather! Some companies provide night trips for shark and swordfish fishing, as well as multi-day packages to the Bahamas or the Florida Keys. Catered lunches and dinners are often included.

If you come to Fort Lauderdale in the fall, you will be able to catch the fall mullet run. These bait fish are followed into the beach areas by huge numbers of predator fish like sharks and amberjacks, making for excellent beach fishing at this time of year. If you see pelicans or sea gulls dropping out of the sky into the water, drop your line there. You may find barracuda or other game fish that these birds feed on. You can also find unusual game fish, like porcupine fish, which usually bite on flies instead of live bait. Renting a kayak and floating up the canals allows you to take advantage of the inlets and slower moving water to catch snooks and blue runners.

Deciding on the right charter or renting a boat to go it alone can be a tough decision. In a city like Fort Lauderdale, filled with good fishing opportunities, your best bet might be to do some of each! Whatever choice you make, you will find the fish are always biting in Fort Lauderdale. A day of fishing in Fort Lauderdale offers a tremendous amount of fun and excitement!
