Fort Lauderdale Fishing Charters

Fort Lauderdale charters run out of Port Everglades and the New River, and you're looking at one of the shortest runs to blue water on the East Coast — the Gulf Stream sits roughly three miles off the beach. Winter sailfish migrate close to the reef line here, and the same boat often turns up kingfish, mutton snapper, and mahi-mahi depending on the season. Expect a mix of half-day reef trips and full-day runs to the Stream.
