Our captains have been fishing the area for over 35 years and have caught every saltwater species in the area. Captain Scott Thompson is a local fishing expert that will put you on fish and enrich you with years of knowledge of Amelia Island.
Captain Scott had the pleasure of fishing with a wonderful family this month. Amauri, his brother Marcos, his son Marcos and his son Marco along with two young ladies came out to explore what offshore fishing had to offer. They were traveling from Brazil to spend some time at this beautiful destination. While here, they had to get out in the deep blue sea.
They adventured out on a two day fishing charter out of Amelia Island. The weather conditions were great on both days. Sea conditions were not as great on the first day creating an opportunity to fish closer to shore. While fishing there, they caught several species of fish. The main catch was migrating and spawning Redfish. Most of the catches of redfish weighed in at 20-50 pounds.
Sea conditions laid down and allowed them to go offshore the second day. Bottom fishing was what they wanted to do while offshore fishing. Captain Scott took them 25 miles offshore to one of his productive bottom fishing spots. After several drops, they started hooking into big red snapper. Cut bait was the magic on this fishing trip. 
This awesome group got to experience many different catches. They had a grouper on as well but you have to know how to fish for them. When grouper get hooked into, they want to run and dig into the rocks. Once this happens, you are most likely going to lose the fish.
Some additional species caught were sea bass. Sea bass can be caught on the bottom as well. Interesting enough, the reef they were fishing also was holding barracuda. This group really enjoyed landing a 5 foot barracuda.
Captain Scott really enjoyed fishing with these clients. It is always nice to be able to share something you love with travelers and visitors. Captain Scott holds Amelia Island close to his heart and would love to show you what is so magical about this destination. He looks forward to seeing you on the water next time.

Take a break from the beautiful beaches and resorts and hop on board for what could be the adventure of your lifetime! Let’s get you hooked up and we are looking forward to getting you out on the water.

Miami Pelagic Fishing Charter
Miami is a premier destination for outdoor activities. Whether you are visiting the heart of downtown or South Beach, you can access endless fun. If you are tired of sitting on the beach or shopping around town, hop on board our fishing vessels and head offshore. Offshore fishing or Deep Sea Fishing is a great way to soak up some sun and experience the fight of your lifetime. Our Miami pelagic fishing charter can show you the amazing fishing experience you can have.
Offshore fishing can be accessed quite quickly when fishing out of Miami. South Florida is a prime location for offshore fishing because of its access to the Gulf Stream. The Gulf Stream is a large stream of water that moves water, bait and fish from one destination to the other. You can catch some of the biggest fish you can find right along this incredible water highway. It is not too often that you get the chance to go offshore so when you do, you want to be with a local expert.
Our fishing charters are run by highly professional and knowledgeable experts that will put you on fish the whole trip. Sit back and enjoy the ride while your captain takes you to promising fishing grounds. As a result, you will have the time of your life with friends and family. Captain John Barker is an excellent fishing captain that will work endlessly to get you on your dream fish.
When you are adventuring offshore in Miami, you will be leaving out of Bayside Marina. If you get the opportunity to fish with Captain Barker, you will be fishing on a 45’ Hatteras sport fishing boat. This boat comes equipped with everything you need for offshore fishing along. Due to the size of this boat, you also get comfort and luxary. Enjoy the air condition and comfortable sitting inside your cabin when you get too warm. 
Miami Offshore Fishing is absolutely incredible this time of year. Captain Barker had the pleasure of fishing with Pablo Sierra and a group of his friends. The boat was loaded and these gentlemen were looking to get into some quality pelagic species. Luckily, they were in store for an excellent day on the water. If you are looking for a wide variety of species, you have to come visit South Florida and more specifically Miami.
Beautiful weather and perfect fishing conditions led to a strong bite right off the bat. Pablo and his friends reeled in numbers of fish of each species. Adventuring offshore is like adventuring into the unknown. You never know what is going to bite the line. Pablo and his crew got the chance to experience some of the best species to catch. They started out with the bonito then they caught a barracuda. These fish were just getting their arms warm for what was to come. After these species were caught, schools of black fin tuna came up and they started putting them in the boat as well. It was not long after this that the Mahi-Mahi showed up. They did not catch a bull but put several quality fish in the boat. After trolling live bait and ballyhoo, they slowed down their fishing tactics and landed some bottom fish including snapper.

Finally, we get to the catch of the day. Pablo and his friends landed a beautiful sailfish while fishing with live bait. The bait of choice was a google-eye. They also love to eat pilchards and blue runners. Whatever live bait you can get your hands on will provide you the best chance to catch that trophy fish. As a result, you have much great success putting a wide variety of species in the boat. Sailfish put up an excellent fight truly worth experiencing.
Certainly, this amazing group of men had a fantastic time cruising offshore. The ability to relax, sit back and enjoy a couple cold ones while reeling in fish is what life is all about. Bring your family and friends on a fishing adventure of a lifetime. You never know what you will catch and every fishing trip is a new adventure. 
Furthermore, one of the many benefits of fishing out of Bayside Marketplace Marina is that you can come back and enjoy downtown Miami after your trip. Give your captain some time after the trip to clean your fish and you can take it to the local restaurant to have them cook it up. There is no better way to end a day of fishing then relaxing with your friends, enjoying the Miami views and eating your fresh catch. Tradewinds restaurant is the perfect place to do so!
Captain Barker is looking forward to the next opportunity to take out Pablo and his crew. They were awesome to fish with and they absolutely had a blast.
Miami is one of the best locations to come visit. Don’t miss out on the endless fishing adventures that are available to you. Bring your family along on an adventure that can change your life. Relax and enjoy while your professional captain take you to the prime fishing grounds for your desired catch. We look forward to seeing you on the water next time!

Miami Offshore Fishing Report
Miami, FL is one of the most sought after fishing destinations in the world. You can experience some of the best fishing during the fall season. When you visit Miami, you are opening yourself up for a fishing adventure of a lifetime. Here is a Miami Offshore Fishing Report which consists of some clues to what is going to be biting during these times.
You may be drawn to Florida for beautiful weather, great beaches and exciting night life but don’t count of the exceptional fishing opportunities. If you are planning a vacation from September through November to Miami, you will be visiting during the prime offshore fishing months. Every offshore angler dreams about hunting down some of their favorite catches or to take a fish off their bucket list but you have to know your fish first!
September is a great month to continue to search for that bull dolphin or mahi-mahi. The Gulf Stream is still bringing them through Miami and provides potentials for you to catch great numbers of them. You can also troll some wrecks for king fish during the month of September. Both species enjoy big baits. Stop by your local tackle shop and pick up some ballyhoo. We would also advise to never travel offshore without live bait. You can find schools of pilchards along the beaches or you can also pick up a dozen or two from your local tackle shop. Live bait comes in handy when you come across a large school of fish and want to load the boat quickly. Run out to the largest weed line or structure you can find and hold on for the fight of your life.
October through November bring about the first cold snaps of the year. When this occurs, it will change the way we approach and fish especially offshore. Colder waters and temperatures bring in the sailfish. Live bait is most certainly the most effective method in catching this bill fish. Fly a kite and get ready to have some fun as you watch a sailfish circle your live pilchard or goggle-eye. Get out on the water and determine which depth and location these sailfish are moving in. Keep an eye out for action in shallow depths and jumping sailfish. Don’t count out the king fish from sky-rocketing through the water to chase or eat your live bait.
Swordfish Fishing is also going to be excellent during these months. Whether you want to catch them during the daytime or nighttime is your preference but make sure you know the different techniques in order to do so. Each situation will call for different depths and equipment. Hop on board with a local expert and we can show you how to catch them in either day or night. 
Don’t count out bottom fishing throughout these months. Your local reefs and wrecks will have endless species that you can catch. The main species would be snapper. Not only are they incredible fun to catch but they are most certainly a treat. Snapper is one of the most delicious bottom fish you can catch. Throw out a chicken rig with some deep or live bait and hold on for a great bite.
Your adventure starts when visiting Miami! Offshore fishing is going to be spectacular for an abundance of species. Don’t miss out on the action and take a break from the beaches and enjoy some beautiful weather in the deep blue sea. Feel free to contact us with any questions and we would be glad to help! We can get you in touch with our local experts.

August Destin Offshore Fishing
August is the month and time of year to come to explore what Destin, Florida has to offer. Destin is the ULTIMATE Florida fishing destination with an abundance to offer you. When you are planning your visit to Florida this month, make sure you keep in mind what you can experience on an August Destin offshore fishing charter.
Destin is located along the Emerald Coast of Florida in the Panhandles. Tucked away and hidden from the rest of the state, you can find some of the BEST beaches in Florida. Along with the beautiful scenery, you can also experience some of the most productive offshore fishing especially in the month of August. They aren’t known to be the Luckiest Fishing Village for no reason and iOutdoor can show you what they are all about.
When you are looking for an awesome outdoor activity to substitute your vacation stay on the beach, hop on board one of our offshore fishing vessels. You will have the opportunity to cruise through the Gulf of Mexico to local fishing grounds for large tasty catches. If you love to catch-and-cook while you are traveling and on vacation, this is the perfect opportunity to do so.
August starts one of the best seasons to come fishing in Destin, Florida. Destin Offshore Fishing action picks up strong for Trigger Fish and Amber Jack. Now until October 31st you can catch and harvest an Amberjack. Make sure you check and are familiar with all the FWC rules and regulations before harvesting them. Our local expert offshore fishing captains know all the information you will need in order to have a successful day on the water.
Knowledge is power and leads to success when it comes to offshore fishing. Our professional captains have years of experience catching the offshore species you are after. They will take you out to the closest fishing grounds and best spots in Destin. You can reach highly productive waters within 10 miles of the shore. The best spots are between 4-10 miles.
When you are traveling offshore, make sure you find your sweet zone between 60-90 feet of water. The big amberjacks and triggerfish are holding on the bottom within these depths. Large wrecks, reefs, and barges will produce the best bite. These fish need structure to live and feed. If you are looking for big fish make sure you set up on the largest wreck you can find and throw big baits.

Bottom Fishing in the Gulf of Mexico is the only way to go. It happens to be the best method in catching the Amberjack and Trigger Fish. When in search for a large triggerfish, make sure you throw on some cut bait on a chicken rig and put it on the bottom. This will entice a quick bite, so be ready to reel them in.
Amber jacks are a fun fish to catch. Their size and strength will have you fighting like no other. If you are looking to catch a big Amberjack make sure you put on some big baits. Live bait happens to be the most effective method especially if you use Blue Runners or Pin Fish. Hook them onto a Knocker or Carolina rig and get ready for that fight you have been waiting for.
After reeling in one of these awesome fish, make sure you grab a cold drink to keep yourself hydrated in the summer sun here in Florida. Once your fishing adventure and charter are done make sure you give your captain plenty of time to clean your catch. August Destin Offshore Fishing will provide a thrill worth remembering and repeating again.
Come enjoy a day on the water while reeling in some BIG fish with Captain Wayne Alexander. Amberjacks are some of the strongest fighting saltwater species. Triggerfish and Amberjack both are incredibly delicious fish to cook up and eat. There is nothing like getting off the water and either having a local restaurant cook up your catch.
Don’t miss out on your August Destin Offshore Fishing Charter next time visiting Florida’s Panhandle. You won’t regret a day of fishing or early morning on the water. You can squeeze in a quick trip to the local reef and then hit the beach right after. Let’s get you hooked up and we most certainly look forward to fishing with you next time on the water!!
