Fort Lauderdale Sport Fishing: Great Sport Fishing Resources Around Fort Lauderdale
Custom Search
Planning a Fort Lauderdale sport fishing expedition? The city and its surrounding areas can offer fishers both deep sea saltwater fishing and freshwater fishing. So, whether you want to go bottom or drift-boat fishing or take a deep sea charter, the city and surrounding area has something for everyone.
The area is teeming with fishing charter companies and crews that can change every year. For the best experience, check out the resources below to find up-to-date referrals and fishing information.
The International Game Fish Association World Fishing Center
The World Fishing Center, run by the IGFA (International Game Fish Association) is an incredible 3-acre park, museum and library that's also home to a virtual reality sport fishing simulator. Anglers can practice reeling in a computer-generated catch, browse the library resources or even find a list of recommended local guides and charter companies.
You can reach the IGFA headquarters at 1-954-927-2628 or contact the World Fishing Center directly at 1-954-922-4212 or online at http://www.igfa.org. The library and museum are open daily from 10 am to 6 pm.
The Hall of Fame Marina
Located on Seabreeze Boulevard, the Hall of Fame Marina is packed with charter fishing boat companies, offering a range of choice and packages for your Fort Lauderdale sport fishing experience. It's possible to book ahead with your hotel or ask at the IGFA for a recommended company.
Pier 66 Marina
Like the Hall of Fame Marina, the Pier 66 Marina is another hot spot for some of Fort Lauderdale's biggest and best fishing charter companies. The marina can be found on SE 17th Street or by phone at 954-525-6666. Again, ask your hotel concierge or the IGFA for a recommended boat and captain.
Hillsboro Inlet Charter Fleet
Actually located in Pompano Beach, Hillsboro Charters are recommended by both Fodor's Florida guide and Frommer's. The company operates over a dozen charter vessels and tracks marlin, shark, sailfish and pompano. You can contact them by phone at 954-943-8222 to make a reservation.
Average Prices and Charter Rates
For bottom fishing, most boats charge about $40 per person for a 4-hour trip and will typically include reel, rod and bait. For private charters, expect to pay around $350 for a six-person, half-day trip and about $600 for a full day adventure.
Nearby cities and municipalities like Dania Beach, Pompano Beach, Lauderdale by the Sea and Deerfield Beach also offer free or very reasonably priced fishing piers for anglers that prefer a more relaxed, Fort Lauderdale sport fishing experience. Most also offer visitors rod-and-reel rentals for less than $10 a day.
