Fort Lauderdale's Premier Sport Fishing Charter
Hey there, anglers! Ready to hit the high seas for some serious fishing action? You're in for a treat with It's Never Enough Sport Fishing here in Fort Lauderdale. We're talking about a 3 to 6-hour private charter that'll have you reeling in the big ones before you can say "fish on!" Whether you're a seasoned pro or just getting your feet wet, our warm Florida waters are teeming with gamefish that'll give you the fight of your life.
What to Expect on the Water
Picture this: You're cruising out of Fort Lauderdale's picturesque harbor, the sun's rising, and the anticipation's building. Our top-notch boat's rigged and ready with all the gear you need. We'll head to the hotspots where the fish are biting, and before you know it, you'll be battling everything from speedy wahoo to high-flying sailfish. With a max of 6 guests, you'll get plenty of personal attention from our expert crew. Just remember, the ocean's got a mind of its own, so come prepared for a real adventure!
Fishing Techniques & Gear
We don't mess around when it comes to putting you on fish. We'll be using a mix of trolling and live bait fishing to maximize your chances. Seven lines out when we're trolling means more hooks in the water and more chances for a strike. When the conditions are right, we'll switch it up to kite fishing, which is a sight to behold – imagine live bait skipping across the surface, ready to entice a monster from the deep. Our gear is top-of-the-line, and we'll show you the ropes if you're new to these techniques. Trust me, there's nothing quite like the rush of a big pelagic hitting a live bait under a kite!
What Anglers Are Saying
"I highly recommend Never Enough Sport Fishing! From start to finish Jessica and Captain Anthony were extremely responsive, informative, flexible, understanding, knowledgeable, and professional. Captain Anthony took us out for our first Father/Son Fishing charter and it could not have been any better. We had the best time and it's something my son and I will remember for years to come. Thanks for such a great experience. We will definitely be back!" - William
"We ended up having a slow morning, catching two sharks and one Bonita. But captain Anthony did his best to give us a full experience. We fished until the very last minute of our trip. We are very happy and we highly recommend booking with Never Enough Sport Fishing Charters. Thank you!!!!!" - Marie
"10/10 would recommend to anyone looking for a private charter, captain anthony is a great guy who knows his stuff. My wife and I went on the 3 hour morning charter and showed up a couple minutes early and he was there with the boat in the water waiting for us. We went out and the first thing he said was the morning fishing won't be too great because of the full moon yet he still put us on a couple fish. He then took us to a ship wreck and hooked us on a "grandpa barracuda". With our time coming to an end, captain Anthony told us that we would troll on the way in and got my wife and I on a double header of wahoo!" - John
Species You'll Want to Hook
Greater Amberjack: These bruisers are the heavyweight champs of the reef. They love hanging around wrecks and rocky bottoms, and when you hook one, get ready for a serious workout. Amberjacks can grow over 100 pounds, and they fight like their lives depend on it. Spring and fall are prime times to tangle with these powerhouses. Anglers love 'em because they're a true test of strength and stamina.
Wahoo: Speed demons of the sea, wahoo are like the sports cars of the fish world. They're sleek, fast, and when they hit, hold on tight! These streamlined predators can swim up to 60 mph and make blistering runs that'll have your reel smoking. Late summer to early fall is the best time to target them. Catching a wahoo is all about the thrill of the chase and the explosive strike.
Great Barracuda: With a mouthful of razor-sharp teeth and a bad attitude, 'cudas are the punks of the ocean. They're ambush predators that'll hit lures and live bait with incredible ferocity. You can find them year-round, but they're especially active in warmer months. Anglers get a kick out of their aggressive nature and the challenge of avoiding those teeth when unhooking!
Blackfin Tuna: These compact powerhouses are like the marathon runners of the sea. They never seem to run out of energy. Blackfins school up and can create frenzied feeding action at the surface. Spring and fall are excellent for targeting these tasty fighters. Folks love 'em not just for the fight, but also for the sushi-grade meat they provide.
Atlantic Sailfish: The stars of the show, sailfish are what dreams are made of for many anglers. With their distinctive sail-like dorsal fin and acrobatic jumps, they're a sight to behold. Winter and early spring are prime sailfish seasons here. Landing one of these beauties is often a bucket-list item, and the photo ops are unbeatable. Plus, they're a catch-and-release favorite, adding to the excitement of the fight knowing you'll set them free.
Time to Book Your Spot
Alright, folks, let's cut to the chase – this isn't just another day of fishing, it's a chance to make some serious angling memories. With It's Never Enough Sport Fishing, you're getting top-notch gear, expert guides who know these waters like the back of their hand, and a shot at some of the most exciting fish in the Atlantic. Whether you're looking to tick off a bucket-list catch or just want to spend a few hours battling it out with some hard-fighting fish, we've got you covered. Don't let this opportunity slip through your fingers like a loose line. Spots fill up fast, especially during peak seasons, so grab your crew, pick a date, and let's get you out on the water. Trust me, the only thing you'll regret is not booking sooner. See you on the boat!

Unforgettable Catch

Sailfish Surprise
I booked the 3-hour sport fishing trip with start time of 7 AM for my brother and two young nephews who were visiting me from Seattle. The day started out stormy and we weren’t sure if our trip would go forward. The weather cleared about half an hour later and we set out around 7:30 AM. We are novices and were hoping for food fish like snapper, tuna, or maybe even a mahi mahi. Any catch would have delighted us. What we got instead was a total surprise, an 80-inch sailfish!!! My brother and I took turns reeling in the fish and were completely exhausted afterwards. We felt seasick but held up. It was totally worth it and we had a lot of fun. It later sank in that what we caught was a once-in-a-lifetime experience. We also caught a bonito and barracuda. Captain Anthony was very knowledgeable, fun and pleasant to be with. It only took us 20 minutes to get to our fishing area and all of our catches took place within the first hour. I will definitely book with Captain Anthony again in the future.

Fish Frenzy Delight
Awesome experience! Great boat, affordable prices, experienced captains and crew. Knowledgeable captains got us on the fish and took care of everything. Non stop action catching a variety of fish trolling with 7 lines at once. Switched over to kite fishing for a whole new experience, running 4 live lines at once. Captain and crew were very patient with a lot of knowledge to share so we could land the fish. 5/5 stars, would highly recommend to novice and experienced anglers.

Quick Catch Success
The boat ride to our fishing location took roughly 10-15 mins. Captain Anthony set up the rods and reels. The target fish was barracuda Within 10 mins of trolling, we hooked up on a barracuda. We had 4 people on his boat and we each caught a fish within the first hour. A rain storm rolled in and we had to cut the trip short. Captain Anthony was very reasonable with the price since we did not get to fish the full 4 hours. The next time I’m in the area I will book with him again.

Hooked on Adventure
My husband and I booked a 4 hour sport fishing trip with captain Anthony, and we loved our experience. From the minute we booked, the communications were fantastic. Very responsive and answered all of our questions. The boat and equipment were clean and organized. We had captain Jimmy with us on the lower deck getting things ready. He was very friendly and again, answered our many questions throughout the day. We ended up having a slow morning, catching two sharks and one Bonita. But captain Anthony did his best to give us a full experience. We fished until the very last minute of our trip. We are very happy and we highly recommend booking with Never Enough Sport Fishing Charters. Thank you!!!!!

Wahoo Wonderland
10/10 would recommend to anyone looking for a private charter, captain anthony is a great guy who knows his stuff. My wife and I went on the 3 hour morning charter and showed up a couple minutes early and he was there with the boat in the water waiting for us. We went out and the first thing he said was the morning fishing won’t be too great because of the full moon yet he still put us on a couple fish. He then took us to a ship wreck and hooked us on a “grandpa barracuda”. With our time coming to an end, captain Anthony told us that we would troll on the way in and got my wife and I on a double header of wahoo! After that we got some pictures at the dock and he gave us great recommendations of where to go for getting the fish mounted and which restaurants near by could cook our fresh catch. For the 3 hour trip and other charters next to us catching slim pickings it was a great experience and would do it again the next time I’m back in pompano beach!

Dream Fish Caught
Austin and I are more than pleased with this trip. Captain Tony greeted us right away and made us feel like friends from the very beginning. He was the perfect combination of laid back and very cautious of our surroundings and safety. We found so many things in common on the boat and had some pretty fun conversations. Great laughs and he answered every question we had. He has tons of fun facts to share and funny comments to make to make you feel more at ease. We caught our first fish within a half hour of being out there and didn’t stop. He let us basically request what size fish we were looking to catch. We started out catching a couple tuna and then caught some awesome king fish. Austin was then ready for the “big” one. Captain Tony knew exactly what to do and where to go and Austin caught one of his dream fish! A 46 inch barracuda! So amazing. With the help of captain Tony we are now getting the fish mounted and sent to us for forever memories. We will definitely never forget this fishing trip and will continue to rave about him. Best decision this trip!

Kingfish Bonanza
We went out early Saturday morning. Anthony was there as planned. We were quickly out of the inlet and had lines wet shortly thereafter. In 30 minutes from leaving the dock we had boated our second decent King Fish. In the next hour we caught two good size Bonitas. The rest of the morning we were catching Barracudas both trolling and the on a downrigger. The open fish Contender is great. No smell of diesel, built for fishing. Anthony did pretty much all the work except reeling in the fish. He really knew how to catch game fish. I have fished that same area with my own boat and never came close to catching that amount of fish. I learned a lot, but to find out how, you are going to charter the Never Enough yourself.

Wahoo Win
I booked this trip for my Brother and my 2 nephews visiting from MA. The initial booking was canceled due to weather and my family was very disappointed but Jessica was so quick and helpful to find other options for us. She rebooked us on another day and it turned out perfect. My family had an awsome time with Capt. Anthony and my younger nephew caught a huge Wahoo within minutes into the trip. They had an amazing time and we all thank you so much for memories that will last a lifetime. Devrim cannot wait to mount that catch on his wall.

Big Game Bonanza
The 2 fish pics above speak for themselves. Captin Anthony knows what he is doing, and where to go. I really enjoyed my trip. I am going to suggest a few things. 1. I did pay a little extra for the live fish. The above fish was caught with one of them. GET THE LIVE BAIT. 2. TAKE DRAMAMINE AS THEY SUGGEST. I did get a little sea sick, so take it as they suggest. 3. Hydrate well the day before, and bring some Gatorade on the trip. If you want to have a great fishing trip, Captain Anthony can make it happen. ** Also Remember to TIP THE CAPTIN. Thank you Captin Anthony!!

Atlantic Sailfish
Greater amberjack are the bruisers of the reef. These powerful fish typically range from 20-40 pounds but can grow over 100 pounds. You'll find them around wrecks, reefs, and offshore structures in waters 60-240 feet deep. Amberjack are famous for their hard-fighting ability. They'll dive for the bottom as soon as they're hooked, testing both angler and tackle. Their firm, white meat is good eating, but be aware of size and bag limits. Spring is prime time for amberjack fishing, coinciding with their spawning season. To catch them, try vertical jigging or dropping live bait near structure. They're not picky eaters - both metal jigs and live baitfish work well. Here's a tip from a local: when you hook an AJ, get it moving up quickly. If you let it run, it'll likely break you off in the structure. Use heavy tackle and be prepared for a workout - these fish don't give up easily!
Blackfin Tuna
Wahoo are the speed demons of the ocean. These streamlined fish can hit 60 mph in short bursts, making them one of the fastest swimmers out there. They typically grow 3-5 feet long but can reach over 8 feet and 180 pounds. You'll find wahoo in open water, often near the surface. They're most abundant in Florida from July to November. Anglers prize them for their blistering runs and tasty, firm white meat. To catch wahoo, high-speed trolling at 12-15 knots is the go-to method. Use a spread of 4-6 lures. Wire leaders are a must - their teeth will shred mono. Minnow lures, bulletheads, and plungers all work well. Here's a local tip: if you're marking wahoo but not getting hits, try slowing down to 8-10 knots and using rigged ballyhoo. Sometimes a change of pace is all it takes to trigger a strike.
Great Barracuda
Great barracuda are the toothy terrors of the reef. These sleek predators can grow up to 6 feet long, though most are 2-4 feet. You'll spot them near the surface around coral reefs, seagrass beds, and mangroves. They're loners except during spawning season in spring. Barracuda are known for their lightning-fast strikes - they can hit 35 mph in short bursts. Anglers love targeting them for their aggressive fights and impressive jumps. Just watch those teeth when you're landing one! To catch barracuda, try trolling with shiny lures or live bait near the surface. They're curious fish, so sometimes they'll follow your boat. When that happens, cast a lure right in front of them for an explosive strike. My top tip: use wire leaders. Those razor-sharp teeth will slice through mono like it's nothing. And keep your fingers clear when unhooking them - they can do some serious damage!
Greater Amberjack
Atlantic sailfish are the showstoppers of the sea. These acrobatic fighters grow up to 7-8 feet long but stay light at around 50 pounds. You'll find them in warm waters 30-65 feet deep, though they can dive much deeper when hunting. Winter's the prime time to target them in the Florida Keys, but "Sailfish Alley" between Miami and Fort Pierce is hot year-round. Anglers love sailfish for their spectacular leaps and long, endurance-testing battles. To hook one, let your bait swim freely at depth while slow trolling. When a sail hits, hold on tight - they'll try to shake the hook immediately. Wait for it to run before you start fighting back. Pink and white or blue and white tube flies work well. For bait, try squid or mackerel. My top tip: be patient and preserve your strength. These fish will wear you out if you're not careful!
Wahoo Fish
Blackfin tuna might be small for their family, but they pack a punch. Most are 20-30 inches long and weigh 10-30 pounds. You'll find them in warm waters near the coast, often hanging around the continental shelf. These guys are at their peak in the Florida Keys during fall, winter, and spring. They're popular targets because they fight hard for their size and taste great on the plate. Blackfins often school up, so where there's one, there's usually more. To catch them, try vertical jigging or chunking. They have sharp eyes, so use light leaders - 30-pound fluorocarbon works well. I like to use circle hooks in the 5/0 to 6/0 range. Here's a local trick: chum with live pilchards to bring the blackfins to your boat. Once they're in a feeding frenzy, it's game on!
