Explore the waters on a florida fishing charter.

When you choose a Florida fishing charter, you can enjoy the water in style while you explore all of the fantastic fishing opportunities. If you love the water and hot weather, there is no state that is better for you than Florida. With a long and gorgeous coastline, plenty of lakes, dozens of navigable rivers, and fascinating swampland areas, there is something for all kinds of boaters in Florida. Take a look at some of the best places to go and some of the fish you can expect to catch along the way.

Fishing in Florida

Here are three of the most popular Florida fishing experiences to try.

Fishing in Florida's St. Johns River

If you are into fishing, this river is full of bass, catfish and crappie, among other species. If you sail north, we recommend reserving your boat in Vero Beach and making your way up the coast. If you sail south, we recommend securing your fishing charter in Jacksonville.

Daytona Beach fishing charter

You can have easy access to so many amazing events on the water if you decide to charter a boat in Daytona Beach. A Daytona Beach fishing charter gives you the chance to enjoy fishing in the ocean as well as further inland.

Fish the reefs in the Keys

The Reef Crawl Florida Keys is a four-day event that usually takes place during late August. Guide your Florida fishing charter to Key Largo and make your way down the coast to Islamorada on a mission to fish all of the bountiful reefs, wrecks, mangroves and other ecosystems of the Upper Florida Keys.

Best places to fish in Florida

These are three of the best places to fish in Florida.

St. Johns River

Fish the St. John River from your Florida fishing charter for several types of sport fish. You will find rainbow trout, brown trout, bass, and sturgeon living in the river.

Daytona Beach

The Daytona Beach area boasts some of the best fishing in the world. When you surf fish in Daytona Beach from your Florida fishing charter, you might hook a whiting, pompano, flounder, bluefish, or drum.

Florida Keys

The Florida Keys are so long and the fishing varies from location to location. But you can be sure to hook lots of fish all the way from Key Largo to Key West from your Florida fishing charter.

How to fish in Florida

Because there are so many different bodies of water in Florida, the fishing conditions can vary greatly. Here are three tips to get you started.

Type of fishing

Think about the type of fishing you want to do. This will help you get the correct tackle, as well as maps or a guide to lead you to the best fishing holes.

Fishing location

Choose the location you want to fish. For example, the Florida panhandle gulf coast is better for catching cobia, redfish, Spanish and king mackerel, and pompano, while the Florida Keys offer nearby inshore waters with good snook fishing.

Bait and tackle

Once you have considered the type of fishing you plan on doing, get the bait and tackle you will need. You can get more information from local bait and tackle shops, or look for other help online.

Types of fish in Florida

With all the different bodies of water in Florida come a wide variety of fish species. Here are just three of the types of fish you will be most likely to catch.

The best time to catch amberjack is November through April and also during the months of June and July.

A barracuda is a large, predatory ray-finned fish with a fearsome appearance. Just be aware that they are reported to be declining in Florida, and there might be catch limits imposed by the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission.

Cobia are large, long fish with a dark stripe running along the sides of the body. They can be found in Florida's open waters from spring through autumn.

Top types of fishing in Florida

Florida has so many different types of environment which make the area ideal for many styles of fishing. Here are three of the styles you might want to try.

Deep-sea fishing from the boat

Whether you are on a catamaran, a center console, or a pontoon, nothing beats lounging on the deck and tossing a few lines into the water to see what might be down in the ocean depths below.

Fishing the Intracoastal Waterway

With mile after mile of fresh, brackish and marine water, the Intracoastal Waterway in Florida can be a real angler's paradise. Try for some flounder or seabass, as well as crab and shrimp.

Freshwater or saltwater

For more options, explore the many rivers and lakes in addition to the ocean. If you are angling for a specific species, save some money and get either the freshwater or saltwater license and throw back any species the permit does not cover.

Florida fishing seasons

If you have decided to charter a boat in Florida, there really is no bad time to go. Take a look at the conditions you might expect from month to month.

The weather is really cold in the rest of the country, but Florida is usually very mild. There is good bottom fishing for Snappers offshore or you can try for species like Redfish or Trout.

The water is still a little cold in February and bottom fishing for reef fish and Amberjack is the way to go.

Temperatures start climbing and Florida's abundant fish come out of hibernation. Reef fish come closer to shore and fish like Cobia start to make an appearance.

April in Florida is one of the most pleasant months. The weather is great and the fishing can be spectacular. Cobia fishing is especially excellent during this month.

May is the best month to start offshore fishing in Florida. You can get some trophy catches of Groupers and other pelagic fish.

June is when Florida starts getting the busiest. School’s out, the weather is hot, and the fishing is very good. Book early for outings, because most Florida attractions fill up quickly.

July is the hottest month, with average temperatures peaking above 90. Demand for boats is high, Red Snappers are everywhere, and Tarpon are biting.

Florida's tourist season continues in August, with offshore fishing for pelagics still great and plenty of Groupers and Snappers still in season.

September is when the weather is cooler and the crowds are smaller. Trolling and surface fishing are popular during this month, with Blackfin Tuna and Sailfish just a few miles from shore.

Inshore fishing is just as good in October in Florida. Join a bunch of other anglers and enjoy the quieter fishing holes!

Fishing in Florida is still amazing in November. It is still possible to troll for most pelagics, as well as do some bay and bottom fishing.

Temperatures can sometimes drop into the fifties in Florida in December, but that still isn't bad compared to the rest of the country. Get out on the boat and do some fishing!

Florida Yacht Charter Guide

Florida yacht charters have a spectacular array of unique destinations for both sailing yachts and motor yachts, mega yachts and crewed boats; from Miami, Hollywood and Fort Lauderdale to the scattered islands of the Florida Keys and the Bahamas where fishing and snorkelling spots are myriad.

Bordered by the Atlantic Ocean and the Gulf of Mexico, there are also 30,000 lakes within the state and both locals and businesses have a strong attachment to hobbies involving the water: Jet skis, water skis and kite surfers are familiar sights along the beaches while Scuba diving schools use the gentle Gulf Stream currents to teach beginners drift diving. Florida yacht charterer itineraries can follow the inter-coastal highway and select from numerous seaside towns, great secluded anchorages, excellent marina facilities and pristine beaches that stretch for miles.

To the northeast Jacksonville and Daytona Beach are both popular areas for fishing and whale watching, with the latter also home to the Daytona 500 NASCAR race with free concerts throughout the summer.

Miami is a desirable cosmopolitan destination where guests can spend hours in luxury boutiques, galleries and museums, savouring first-class fine dining or unwinding on the soft sandy beaches that stretch up the coast past Hollywood. Find your own secluded fishing and sunbathing spot among the Florida Keys, which boast a wide variety of fish in crystal clear water.

Dolphins are often observed within the warm waters around St. Petersburg, which offers quiet cruising in protected areas and at night the city has a thriving nightlife with restaurants, bars and live music. Sunsets over the ocean in Florida are often a powerful event that attracts many people to the shoreline.

The Florida Yachting Season:

Florida is ideal for yacht charters year round, however from late July to early October the east coast of America and the Bahamas can be prone to hurricanes and therefore late spring/early summer or the winter holidays prove popular times to visit. As one of the largest yacht charter grounds, there is a massive assortment of yacht charters available in Florida, including motor yachts, sailing yachts, crewed yachts, luxury catamarans and of course superyacht charters. Find a luxury charter to suit you and your group and contact CharterWorld.

The Cost to Charter a Yacht in Florida:

The price of a yacht charter in Florida varies from $24,500 USD per week plus expenses to more than $1,000,000 USD per week for a mega yacht, depending upon the size of yacht chosen and it’s on board facilities. Expenses such as fuel, food and drinks are paid in advance as an Advanced Provisioning Allowance (APA) which usually comes to 30% of the charter price depending on how much is spent. All-inclusive yacht charters are also available and cost between $ 20,000 USD and $ 50,000 USD per week. You can browse the latest Florida yacht charter special offers here , see a price list for American yachts here , or contact the expert brokers at CharterWorld directly for more information.

10 of the Best Florida Yacht Charter Destinations

When the Caribbean and Bahamas are so close Florida can be overlooked as a luxury yacht charter destination, yet the region is home to many exemplary fishing grounds while turtles, dolphins and manatees swim close to the pristine beaches.

Fort Lauderdale and Miami have both established themselves among the yachting community and those in the know don't need to stray far from the mainland for a tropical paradise or high-end shopping opportunities. Read on to discover 10 fantastic locations to visit within the Florida charter grounds that are easy to incorporate into a charter itinerary designed for everyone in your group.

1. Fort Lauderdale

Incredible beaches, impressive art galleries and the top-rated marina and yachting club draw luxury yacht charter groups year after year to Fort Lauderdale. Located directly west of the Bahamas, the airport also provides quick and efficient connections to international flights. Visitors can easily fill a day indulging in high-end shopping, savouring the high quality cuisine or sitting out in the sunshine and fishing in the bay.

If you visit in late October/early November, head to the Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show to see the industry's latest innovations and stunning superyachts.

The silky coast along South Beach is the place to be for sunbathing and people-watching, playing horse polo, jetting along on your motorised water toys or partying the night away.

The coastal clubs and bars cater to all tastes, from upbeat and noisy to laid back and sophisticated, with romantic art deco architecture along the streets. Holidaymakers should stop by at the famous Nikki Beach Club to experience for themselves the food, drinks and atmosphere that gives this place such a stellar reputation.

3. Key West

Among the Florida Keys, Key West has an abundance of islands to explore and the shallow water around the beaches and archipelagos is perfect for younger children to practise their snorkelling and kayaking. A visit on land is a must to see the Earnest Hemingway Home and Museum, the Audubon House & Tropical Gardens and the winter home of President Harry S. Truman, set within the picturesque and verdant town.

4. Key Largo

Key Largo is excellent for Scuba divers for all ability levels with gentle drift diving in the Gulf Stream for beginners, and wreck dives and sites such as Christ of the Abyss for the more experienced. Snorkelers also have the opportunity to see and swim with sea turtles, manatees and whales at such locations as the Key Largo Undersee Park.

5. Ten Thousand Islands

Only Marco Island is inhabited amongst the Ten Thousand Islands at the south-western tip of Florida, leaving an abundance of untouched verdant isles to discover by paddleboard or kayak. Snorkel with dolphins and manatee within this national wildlife refuge, then use the fine grain beaches to rest and recuperate before a romantic sunset meal at your secluded retreat.

6. Clearwater

The powder-soft white sand beach of Clearwater might be where you want to spend your whole holiday, but the area has a myriad more sights and activities to explore: Swim with dolphins, windsurf or learn how to jet ski in the crystal clear waters, then join the parties in the local bars or host your own aboard your superyacht.

Fishing is particularly good in the Gulf Stream off the coast, and charter guests can take an afternoon to laze in the sunshine while catching lunch.

7. Sarasota

The gentle waves and shallow water at Lido Key Beach make this stretch of coast a hit with young families, while those looking for more privacy for a romantic candlelit meal have Passage Key and Egmont Key State Park. Snorkel, Scuba dive and kayak through mangroves and watch schools of fish swimming beneath your group.

As a town with a burgeoning artists' community, a visit to Sarasota will be filled with crafts and opportunities to find statement pieces for your home and that memorable souvenir of your trip.

8. Sanibel Island

Nature lovers will feel reinvigorated on Sanibel Island, where the J.N. "Ding" Darling National Wildlife Refuge covers half of the land and children will be enthralled by the 250 different kinds of shells washed ashore at Sanibel Beach.

Shop at the scenic Periwinkle Place before returning to the coast to watch a captivating sunset, then party the night away on you sundeck and enjoy a cocktail under the stars.

9. Captiva Island

North of Sanibel Island, the western beaches continue and visitors can stroll along the sands for miles, snorkel with fish and other friendly sea creatures or zip through the water with the Seabobs and jet skis from the water toys collection on board. 

There is little to do but relax and play games with family and friends - a perfect escape for quality time together after visiting towns bursting with land-based attractions.

As the name suggests, this town takes its architectural inspiration from Italy and caters to the luxury lifestyle with high-end shops, golf courses and miles of white sand beach where the group can play games or take a stroll along the pier.

Fishing and dolphin-spotting are common pastimes, and attractions such as The Revs Institute for classic cars ensure that guests have something to do off their luxury yacht even on rainy days or during periods of intense heat.

WHAT TO EXPECT

Every trip we make sure that we’re at our best by providing a fun, safe trip with a helpful, hard-working crew with great attitudes. While our goal is to put you on fish, it is called “fishing” not “catching.” We want to make sure your expectations are realistic, so you can make an educated decision about spending your money. Fishing changes daily and fishing regulations have become stringent due to poor fisheries management. We have a lot of trips where everyone catches keeper fish. We also have a lot of trips where only a handful of people catch keeper fish. On rare occasions, we have trips where only a couple or possibly no one catches a keeper fish. Maybe if they changed the name to “catching” this will change but if the possibility of not catching fish will devastate you, you may want to rethink booking a trip. If you want to have a fun day on the water and enjoy everything it has to offer, fish or no fish, then we welcome you aboard and look forward to a fantastic trip!

SPECIAL TRIPS & EVENTS

We believe that every journey on the water should be an unforgettable experience. That’s why we’re proud to offer a range of special trips tailored to all anglers.

We offer a few different special trips:

• Full Moon Snapper Trips
• Grouper Trips
• Jigging Trips
• Take a Kid Fishing
• Sunday Private Charter Special

We also offer a Lady Anglers Club and would LOVE for YOU to join!

Father and son missing after boat capsizes on celebratory birthday fishing trip

ASTORIA, Ore. ( KPTV /Gray News) - A family of seven says they are mourning the loss of a father and son who were out on a fishing trip when their boat capsized.

The U.S. Coast Guard said 43-year-old Constantin Leahu was with his 11-year-old son, Andrei Leahu, when the boat they were on tipped over near Astoria on Saturday.

Rescue crews said they have been searching for the father and son where they were last seen in the water, but they have not yet been able to locate them.

“I don’t think we have a lot of hope to find them alive at this point,” Irina Negrean, a friend of the Leahu family, said. “So, we’re trying to figure out the next steps,”

Negrean said Constantin Leahu and his wife have four daughters and their son Andrei.

She said Andrei was a sweet and responsible boy, who was always ready to look after his sisters.

The family friend said Andrei took after his father, who was a family man and an avid fisherman.

She said Constantin Leahu had been planning last weekend’s boating adventure as it was Andrei’s first fishing trip to celebrate his 11th birthday, which was a day before.

“Andrei had wished to go with him for so long, so this was a dream come true to be out on a fishing boat with his dad,” Negrean said.

The father and son were fishing with three others when the boat capsized and sent the group into the water.

Officials said the Coast Guard was able to pull three people out of the ocean, but one of them died on the way to the hospital.

Rescue crews said they are continuing their search for Constantin Leahu and his son.

“Andrei’s birthday cake is still in the fridge, and it is just a monumental loss,” Negrean said. “It’s an unbelievable loss.”

Since the tragedy, she said the Romanian community at Saint Mary’s Romanian Orthodox Church in Portland has been doing everything they can to support the family.

Constantin Leahu is said to be the family’s sole provider.

“Our goal is to surround them with as much love and financial support as possible,” Negrean said.

The community has set up a GoFundMe on the family’s behalf.

Negrean said Constantin Leahu was always positive and someone who had room at his table for anybody at any time.

“I’m trying to channel his energy and give back to his family as much as possible,” Negrean said. “I know that’s what he would have wanted.”

Charter Captains Say Sharks Are Out of Control and They’re Losing More Fish to the ‘Taxman’

By Bob McNally

Posted on Jul 16, 2024 2:59 PM EDT

7 minute read

Anyone who is more than just an occasional saltwater fisherman has almost assuredly met the “taxman.” This nickname is meant to describe any shark that steals a hooked fish (or part of it) off an angler’s line. And with shark populations on the rise in many areas , it seems like more and more saltwater anglers across the East Coast are getting taxed.

Although sharks exist on all major coastlines, they’ve become especially problematic in the Atlantic and Gulf Coast, where many charter captains say they’re losing more fish than ever before. More than a few striped bass have fallen victim to sharks in Chesapeake Bay and the greater New England area, while anglers in the Gulf are often pushed out of their best spots by the sharp-toothed predators.

The warm waters of the South seem to be a particularly troublesome region for fish-stealing sharks, and I’ve experienced this myself on at least a few occasions over the years. I can remember one recent trip on the Mississippi coast, which is a great wade fishing area but one of the most shark-infested places I’ve ever fished. Six of us were in chest deep water, catching one speckled trout after another. Soon a school of sharks showed up, their fins cutting through the surface and sending trout fleeing in every direction.

The gang worked closer and, when the 4- to 6-foot-long sharks started slamming our hooked trout mere feet from our rod tips, we finally gave up and retreated to a beach. That’s when we looked down at the stringers attached to our wade belts and saw that only the trouts’ heads were left. Those fish were devoured within arm’s reach and we never even felt it.

Prowling the Shallows, Patrolling the Depths

Nearly every charter captain working in the Gulf of Mexico has a story like mine. Captain Mike Frenette fishes around Venice, Louisiana, where the rich waters at the mouth of the Mississippi river draw tremendous schools of shrimp and baitfish, along with a wide assortment of gamefish, including cobia, tuna, dolphin, wahoo, and marlin. This also brings a staggering number of sharks to the area, and Frenette says he’s seeing more of them now than ever before.

“Over the past 10 years I’ve seen a tremendous increase in many shark species,” Frenette tells Outdoor Life . “They’re not only in deep water at the mouth of the Mississippi River, but throughout the shallow waters of the Delta.”

Frenette says he’s seen bull sharks ravaging redfish in water as shallow as two feet. And when he’s fishing for bigger bull reds and tuna in deeper water, encounters with sharks are almost a given.

“There are places at the mouth of the Mississippi where giant dusky, bull, and silky sharks attack maybe 80 percent of the yellowfin [tuna] we hook,” Frenette says. “I’ve never seen the number of sharks that we now have in coastal and offshore waters around Louisiana.”

Captains in other states throughout the coastal South will tell you the same. Offshore crews encounter taxmen on a daily basis, and the Florida Keys have about as many sharks as anywhere else in the country. Sharks there see plenty of anglers, so it doesn’t take them long to associate fishing boats with free meals.

“The sharks roaming ledges and reefs are trained to come to fishing boats and hang there waiting for an easy meal,” says Capt. Joel Brandenburg, who runs Ana Banana Charter Fishing in Marathon, Florida. “Feeding sharks with the fish we hook is an everyday occurrence for me and just about every other charter captain I know in the Florida Keys.”

Spoiling Tournaments and Eating World Records

Sharks eating hooked gamefish is bad news whenever it occurs, but there are times when it’s especially problematic — both for anglers and the resource itself. On Friday, for example, Florida held a one-day season for Atlantic snapper, with a NOAA-dictated limit of one fish per angler due to the Fed’s concerns over fish populations.

Legions of sport anglers loaded their boats with fuel, ice, tackle, and friends, and then headed offshore in the hopes of landing a single large snapper per person. Fishing was exceptional by most accounts, but sharks took a murderous toll, according to many local anglers.

“I’d bet my last dollar that everyone who fished off northeast Florida during that one-day snapper season had big trouble boating their hooked snapper, triggerfish, or grouper,” says Capt. Danny Patrick, a longtime offshore angler who fishes out of Jacksonville.    

It’s doubtful whether any of those stolen fish would have broken records, but that exact scenario played out in July 2023, when Florida charter captain Daniel Delph watched a client lose what could have been a world-record snapper to sharks . They were fishing near the Dry Tortugas, 75 miles off Key West, when the angler hooked a heavy fish some 300 feet down. Sharks got to the snapper immediately, and by the time the angler reeled in the fish, the only thing left was a massive red head.

“Our best guess was that fish whole and intact was about 55 pounds,” Delph says. “It likely would have been an IGFA all-tackle record for red snapper, which is just over 50 pounds.”

Delph says he remembers having troubles with sharks back in the 80s, 90s, and early aughts. But he explains that today, the problem is twice as bad as it was back then, and he’ll often have to move areas or target a different species when the taxmen move in.

“We work hard to avoid sharks,” he says. “We never anchor, and we never fish more than 10 or 15 minutes in one spot. We have to constantly move around to avoid them.”

Some anglers have even lost money to the pesky predators. Sharks are a constant presence at most fishing tournaments, and the 65 th annual Big Rock Blue Marlin tournament out of Morehead City, North Carolina, was no exception. In June 2023, a team of anglers competing in the tourney got the disappointment of their fishing lives when they weighed what would have been the largest marlin caught at the event.  

That 619.4-pound blue marlin would have brought them a $3.5 million payout. But tournament officials noticed a shark bite near the fish’s head, which automatically disqualified it .

Is It Time to Change Shark Management?

Sharks have inhabited the oceans for much longer than we’ve been fishing with rods and reels, and fishermen have always had to pay the taxman on occasion. But many of those anglers will tell you that the problem has gotten particularly bad in recent decades as several laws protecting sharks from harvest have been enacted.

These regulations were made, in part, to balance out the negative perceptions that people held about sharks, and to stem the demand for shark fins abroad. Now, some anglers believe the restrictions have gone too far by replacing scientific management with protectionist ideologies. They say that shark populations have gotten out of control in the absence of pressure, and they’d like to see increased of harvest of certain species — especially bull sharks, which are one of the three shark species most likely to attack a human, though attacks remain statistically rare.

“It doesn’t matter where you are, sharks are everywhere,” Delph says. “So many people think [all] sharks are endangered, but that’s not the case. It’s just so frustrating because it’s devastating to our marine fisheries.”

Sharks are notorious for eating hooked tarpon, another world-renowned game fish that’s a conservation priority in many states. As a result, these fish are almost always released, but that doesn’t mean they always swim way.

“The biggest threat to my charter fishing is when sharks attack tarpon [caught] my clients,” says Capt. Ray Markham, who fishes out of St. Petersburg and has a background in marine biology. “Every year sharks follow the northward tarpon migration. I see guys in waist deep water holding their tarpon for a photo. You won’t catch me in there because I’ve seen 15-foot sharks — hammerheads, bulls, and others — that’ll take a tarpon out of your hand when you’re trying to unhook and release the fish.”

Another longtime and respected Florida guide, Capt. Lenny Moffo remembers holding an estimated 100-pound tarpon boat side one time so his client could get a photo. Moffo pulled the tarpon’s head up as the picture was snapped, but as soon as he released the fish there was an explosion of water, blood, and scales as a shark devoured the trophy fish.

I can remember one outing near the mouth of Charlotte Harbor, when two friends and I experienced some of the best tarpon fishing of our lives, catching 13 tarpon that weighed between 50 to 150 pounds. After losing four of those huge tarpon to taxmen, we quit fishing for the day, not wanting to feed any more quality gamefish to the big hammerheads and bull sharks that were lying in wait.
