Miami & South Florida Fishing Charters
Miami, and South Florida in general, offer great charter fishing opportunities. Although Miami is one of the nation's major metropolitan areas, the Gulfstream waters bordering South Florida remain as productive as ever. Like the climate, Miami sailfishing can get HOT! During peak times, I can be argued that Miami has the best sailfish fishery in the world. Swordfish also abound in South Florida waters. So, if you are looking to catch your first, or 100th billfish, there is no need to go any farther than Miami.

A small portion of your charter will be spent in pursuit of bait. If you would
rather buy bait, instead of catching your own, we can order bait for the day.
Call for details.
What To Bring
It is recommended that you bring sunglasses, sunscreen, camera, extra clothes (depending on the weather), whatever food and drink you want for the day, and a cooler to keep your fish filets cold. How about that favorite fishing rod you want to try out on the big ones.
Departure Location & Directions
Charters depart from one of two Miami-Dade county marinas - either Matheson Hammock Marina or Black Point Marina (see below for directions and maps).
Directions to Matheson Hammock
From the North: Take I-95 south until it ends and turns into US-I (just past the Key Biscayne exit) continue south approximately 4 miles until you come to the traffic light at Le June Road, (SW 42 Ave.), turn left, and go approx. 2 miles until you come to a traffic circle (no light), continue through or ½ way around the circle, (the road is now called Old Cutler Road) and at the second traffic light after the circle, turn left, this is the entrance to Matheson Hammock Park and Marina (there will be a big sign). Once inside the park you will come to a tollbooth. After the tollbooth bear right and go over a small bridge. The entrance to the boat ramp is on the left at the base of the bridge. Look for the boat at one of the piers. Click map above for a larger version.
