Sport Fishing in South Florida

Others take you fishing. We let you fish in South Florida.

Tired of those Ft. Lauderdale fishing charters where the mate rigs the baits, gets the lines out and sets the hook ... and all you get to do is pull in the fish?

Then come fish on the Conched Out, a tournament fishing boat based out of Hillsboro Inlet, in Pompano Beach FL just minutes from Ft. Lauderdale and Miami Beaches. On Conched Out, you will experience 360° of fishing excitement.

Watch surface striking sailfish, tuna or kingfish launch out of the water chasing after your kite bait. Drag screaming kingfish or wahoo as they smoke line off of your downrigger bait.

Fishing with Captain Ryan and Conched Out Sportfishing in Ft. Lauderdale will give you an interactive opportunity to learn how to fish the waters of South Florida and the Bahamas using live bait and other fishing styles.

On the Conched Out, you can participate in the rigging and set out the baits.

Or, if you prefer, we can do all the preparations and you can save your strength for the big catch. Either way, we strive to provide you with the best possible on the water experience.

South Florida has great year round fishing for all different species of fish including:

• Winter – (Sailfish, Wahoo, Grouper, Swordfish)
• Spring – (Tuna, Kingfish, Swordfish)
• Summer – (Tuna, Kingfish, Dolphin, Swordfish)
• Fall – (Kingfish, Wahoo, Swordfish)

If fishing is slow in our area, our Mercury powered tournament rigged CONCH27 center console fishing boat can be trailered to any location from St. Lucie to the Keys to put you on the hottest bite available.

We can target Sailfish, Swordfish, Blackfin Tuna, Wahoo, Dolphin, Kingfish, Grouper, Snappers, Snook, Tarpon, as well as many other fish on a given day. Depending on the conditions and seasons, we may use any of the following fishing techniques:

• Kite Fishing (Sailfish, Tuna, Kingfish, Dolphin) – Experience the most exciting, productive, and visual fishery
• Downriggers
  (Kingfish, Wahoo, Tuna) – Targeting deeper waters where fish may be more active
• Bottom Fishing (Grouper, Snapper)– Catch some hard pulling and great tasting fish
• Vertical Jigging/Butterfly Jigging (Amberjack, Grouper, Snapper) – Target bottom fish and pelagics on the wrecks and reefs
• Trolling Lures/Ballyhoo – Catch summer dolphin, winter wahoo and other species as we follow the weedlines down the coast.

Don’t be intimidated by your inexperience. If you are just learning how to fish, let Conched Out Sportfishing show you our techniques to catch more and bigger fish. We can teach you any of the above techniques as well many others.

We can even help you set up your own boat so that you can replicate the results of our days of charter fishing.
