trip description for Miami Beach Fishing Adventure in Miami Beach

It takes around 15 minutes to reach the ocean from Captain Maurice's dock and most of the fish you'll catch are within two miles offshore. Miami's warm Gulf Stream waters produce fish all year round, including Sailfish, Wahoo, Dolphin, Kingfish, Tuna, Amberjack, Barracuda and Sharks. Miami is unique because you don't have to commit to a full day adventure to chase after these big pelagic species, and though you may have better chances at bigger fish on longer adventures, the possibility (for big fish) is always there on the 4 hour as well! Captain Maurice will provide all the necessary gear for your adventure! All he recommends you bring are your favorite snacks and drinks, and your sun protection. He'll take care of the rest.

START TIME DISCLAIMER: 4hr trip start at 8am and 12pm. 6hr trips start at 8am and 1pm. 8hr trips start at 8am only! The all-day trip is my favorite trip, it gives us a lot of time to try a bunch of different tactics to make the day as productive as possible. We can run offshore and look for birds and debris chasing mahi mahi, troll on the edge of the reef for wahoo sailfish and tuna, drop on wrecks for snappers and groupers. I usually will talk to the customers and put a game plan together to make there fishing experience as memorable as possible. In the 3/4 day trip, it allows us to do more than the half day trip. That includes trolling, live bait, kite fishing, bottom fishing, deep dropping, or shark fishing. Our fishery in south Florida changes throughout the year so we can run offshore for mahi or bottom fish for snappers or groupers. We usually like to talk to the customers about what they would like to target and what is in season and make a game plan from that. We like to fish hard and have fun doing it! In our half day trips depending on time of year or target species. We will troll, live bait, bottom fish, shark fish, or Kite fish. We will usually stay within 2 miles of the beach where most of the bait fish and bottom fish are. But we usually like to target whatever fish that are biting that time of year or whatever the customer would like to catch. Read More

What is cobia fishing in Pompano Beach all about?

Cobia, also known as ling or lemonfish, are a highly sought-after species among anglers in Pompano Beach, Florida. These large and powerful fish are known for their impressive size, strong fighting abilities, and delicious flesh, making them a favorite target for both recreational and sport fishermen. Cobia can be found in a variety of habitats, including nearshore waters, offshore reefs, wrecks, and around buoys. Their migratory patterns often bring them close to the coast of Pompano Beach, providing anglers with ample opportunities to target them throughout the year.

Cobia fishing in Pompano Beach is most productive during the warmer months, typically from late spring through early fall, when water temperatures are higher and cobia are more active. During this time, cobia migrate along the coastline in search of food, following baitfish schools and warmer waters. Anglers targeting cobia in Pompano Beach often use a variety of techniques, including sight fishing, trolling, and bottom fishing with live bait or artificial lures. Their aggressive nature and willingness to strike make cobia a thrilling species to pursue, offering anglers exciting battles and memorable catches.

In addition to their sport fishing appeal, cobia are also prized for their culinary qualities. Their firm, white flesh is mild and flavorful, making them a popular choice for seafood enthusiasts. Cobia can be prepared in various ways, including grilling, baking, frying, or even raw as sushi or sashimi. Many anglers in Pompano Beach enjoy not only the thrill of catching cobia but also the satisfaction of preparing and enjoying a delicious meal from their fresh catch. Overall, targeting cobia in Pompano Beach offers anglers a rewarding and unforgettable fishing experience in the rich waters of the Atlantic Ocean.

What are the most popular months to fish for cobia fishing in Pompano Beach?

Cobia seasons in Pompano Beach, Florida, are influenced by various factors such as water temperature, migration patterns, and spawning behavior. Generally, the prime seasons for targeting cobia coincide with the warmer months, from late spring through early fall. During this time, water temperatures rise, triggering cobia to migrate along the coastlines in search of food and suitable spawning grounds. Anglers in Pompano Beach can anticipate increased cobia activity and more opportunities for successful catches during these peak seasons.

Late spring and summer are particularly productive seasons for cobia fishing in Pompano Beach. As water temperatures climb, cobia become more active and move into shallower waters, making them more accessible to anglers. During this time, cobia can often be found near reefs, wrecks, buoys, and other underwater structures where they congregate to feed and spawn. Anglers targeting cobia during these seasons often use a variety of techniques, including sight fishing, trolling, and bottom fishing with live bait or artificial lures.

While cobia can be caught year-round in Pompano Beach, their numbers may fluctuate depending on seasonal variations and migration patterns. During the cooler months, cobia may move to deeper offshore waters or migrate southward in search of warmer temperatures. Anglers targeting cobia should monitor water conditions and stay informed about seasonal changes to maximize their chances of success. By timing their trips to coincide with peak cobia seasons, anglers in Pompano Beach can enjoy thrilling fishing experiences and the opportunity to reel in these prized game fish.

What techniques are popular for catching cobia in Pompano Beach?

Cobia fishing in Pompano Beach, Florida, requires anglers to employ various techniques to maximize their chances of success. One popular method is sight fishing, which involves scanning the water's surface for cobia swimming near the surface or following larger marine animals such as rays, turtles, or sharks. Once spotted, anglers can cast live bait or artificial lures towards the cobia and entice them to strike. This technique is especially effective in shallow waters, near reefs, wrecks, or along the coastline.

Trolling is another effective technique for targeting cobia in Pompano Beach. Anglers can troll along the coastline or nearshore waters using lures or rigged baits to cover a large area and locate schools of cobia. Many anglers prefer to troll with large diving plugs, spoons, or skirted baits in various colors to mimic the baitfish that cobia feed on. By adjusting trolling speeds and depths, anglers can present their lures at the optimal depth to attract cobia and provoke strikes.

Bottom fishing with live bait is a popular technique for targeting cobia around reefs, wrecks, and underwater structures in Pompano Beach. Anglers can use live bait such as pinfish, mullet, or blue runners rigged on heavy-duty tackle to entice cobia from the depths. Dropping baits to the bottom and allowing them to drift naturally with the current can attract cobia lurking near the structure. Additionally, anglers can use chum bags to create a scent trail and attract cobia to their fishing location. With the right techniques and a bit of patience, anglers in Pompano Beach can enjoy successful cobia fishing outings throughout the year.

What other species are popular in Pompano Beach?

Aside from cobia, Pompano Beach offers anglers a rich diversity of fish species to target, providing a wide range of fishing opportunities for both novice and experienced fishermen. One popular species among anglers in the area is the king mackerel, also known as kingfish. These fast-swimming predators can be found in both nearshore and offshore waters around Pompano Beach, particularly near reefs, wrecks, and along the coastline. Anglers targeting king mackerel often use trolling techniques with rigged baits or artificial lures to entice strikes, making for thrilling battles and rewarding catches.

Another sought-after species in Pompano Beach is the snook, prized for its powerful runs and acrobatic leaps. Snook can be found in a variety of habitats, including estuaries, mangrove shorelines, and inlets. Anglers targeting snook often use live bait such as pilchards, mullet, or shrimp, as well as artificial lures like plugs, jigs, or soft plastics. Snook fishing in Pompano Beach can be productive year-round, with peak seasons typically occurring during the warmer months when water temperatures are higher and snook are more active.

Additionally, Pompano Beach offers opportunities to catch a variety of other species, including tarpon, redfish, grouper, snapper, tuna, wahoo, and mahi-mahi, among others. Whether fishing from a boat, kayak, or the shoreline, anglers visiting Pompano Beach can enjoy thrilling encounters with a diverse range of game fish, each providing its own unique challenges and rewards. With its abundance of fish species and picturesque coastal scenery, Pompano Beach remains a popular destination for anglers seeking memorable fishing experiences in the waters of the Atlantic Ocean.

    My son and I went on a 4 hour fishing trip from Pompano Beach through the Hillsboro Beach Inlet. Captain Dave and mate Tom crewed the boat. They were both professional and very friendly. They made us feel welcome immediately and Captain Dave in particular showed interest in my son who had not been on a deep sea trip previously. They both made the utmost efforts to find us fish. They told us that the morning trip had been pretty quite but they did a lot to find fish, which they did. We ended up landing 5 fish of different species and Tom was kind enough as well as skilled enough to clean the Mahi Mahi and Black Tuna for us to take with us. I would definitely go out with them again the next time we go.

    I've been out on charters many, many times mostly down the east coast but also in Cabo. I must say the trip out with captain Manny is one of the two best trips out I've ever experienced. Her out is on fish, Jordan (the mate) ensured the rods and basis were correct and ready to catch fish. This was just a half day trip but next trip I'm going full day. Wow, I highly recommend Captain Manny!!!!! The catch highlights have to include the 54" barracuda and a 7' shark (it took two of us tag teaming and over 30 minutes to bring the shark alongside the boat for measurement.

    Taylor was amazing! He knew exactly what he was doing; the spots to go to, which bait to use to catch certain fish, and how to set up each individual line. He also knew when each line would be hooked or something was biting, even when we couldn’t see it. We ended up with one big catch that broke the line as we spent what felt like hours fighting it. Even though we didn’t end up feeling anything in, it was still a great experience out on the water, talking about a range of topics with Taylor. We would definitely come back and book with Taylor and Wicked Cuda again!
