Deep Sea Fishing Charters

Wahoo Fishing Charters
49 lb wahoo caught on an afternoon deep sea fishing charter during the end of September 2022!

Our deep sea fishing charters have been seeing an increase of good fishing since the passage of Hurricane Ian. The storm left backwards currents offshore in its wake, which have flushed in a steady supply of bait with Mahi mahi, kingfish, barracuda, sailfish, and wahoo in tow! We have been finding plenty of action with all of these Bluewater species within 3 miles of the beach. Our most consistent action has come from trolling with dead baits, but live bait drifting has also been productive for bottom fishing species such as yellowtail snapper. Now that cold fronts have started sweeping through the area, we expect the consistent Fall migration of pelagic species to continue.

Inshore Fishing Charters

Snook Fishing Charters
24″ snook landed in a back canal during one of our inshore charters in September 2022!

Our inshore fishing has really picked up with the onset of the Fall baitfish migration along the intracoastal waterway. Mullet are the primary forage species, and they have been migrating through our area whenever winds clock out of the North or Northeast. Following these schools of mullet are hungry snook, tarpon, jacks, sharks, and snapper looking for an easy meal. The mullet run is one of the most exciting times to go inshore fishing during the Fall months, even when the fish aren’t biting. We target these species during the mullet run by using cut bait fished near the bottom around the massive baitfish schools. Delray and Boynton Beach are especially productive areas during the Fall mullet run in 2022.

01/31/20 Fishing Report: 72″ Broadbill Swordfish Landed Off Boca Raton

Here is the video from our second swordfish charter of 2020! Please subscribe to our YouTube Channel “This Is Fishing” for exciting weekly reports.
150 Lb Swordfish

150 Lb Swordfish landed during late afternoon charter

We left the dock at 1pm out of Boynton Beach Inlet and headed Southeast to the offshore canyons 20 miles away. Choppy seas slowed us down, but we made it to the swordfish canyons around 3pm, and the wind just died and the conditions were perfect. We baited up a bonito strip and dropped it to the bottom in 1500ft of water and immediately hooked a nice fish. After a 20 minute battle we had a fat 72″ broadbill swordfish in the boat! We made 1 more drop on the same spot but never got another bite. We were very happy with our fish in the boat, and we decided to call it a day early. Ran back to the dock by 6pm to fillet the big fish. Another successful swordfish charter in the books! Bring it on 2020!

12/15/19 Fishing Report: Mahi, Tuna, Barracuda, Bonito

Delray Beach Fishing Charter

On Sunday we had great action with mahi mahi and tuna on a current edge that ran from Boca Raton To Boynton Beach about 3 miles off the coastline. This time of year is a great time to target both these species close to shore. Our by catch included a few big barracuda and bonito as well as a puppy shark. Hopefully the fish stick around for our deep sea charters this week before the weather conditions get nasty on Thursday. Call us to book your trip today we have a few dates available still this Winter….Also, check out the video below from highlights of Sunday’s afternoon Deep Sea Fishing Charter!
