Florida Luxury Sportfish Charter Experience

A Florida luxury sportfish charter with Black Book Charters offers access to a world of opportunity—no matter your target species, fishing style, or trip length. Florida’s coastlines host some of the most iconic fishing destinations in the world: Miami, Palm Beach, and Stuart along the Atlantic, and Destin, Marco Island, and the Dry Tortugas along the Gulf. With deep water drop-offs, reef structures, ledges, and proximity to the Gulf Stream, Florida offers a vast range of gamefish within striking distance of shore.

On the Atlantic side, winter kite fishing for sailfish dominates in destinations like Palm Beach, Miami, Fort Lauderdale, and Jupiter—while spring and summer bring hot bites for mahi-mahi, blackfin tuna, wahoo, and kingfish. For anglers heading offshore from Stuart or Miami, the Gulf Stream offers opportunities to troll for billfish, target swordfish, or bottom fish along structure for snapper and grouper. Many of our clients also book tournament-ready charters for Florida’s competitive sailfish circuit and offshore bluewater events.

Florida’s Gulf Coast delivers an entirely different but equally compelling experience. Destin and the Panhandle offer proximity to artificial reefs and natural structure teeming with red snapper, grouper, amberjack, and tuna. Farther south, our long-range charters to the Dry Tortugas and Pulley Ridge give anglers a shot at untouched bottom and pelagics in remote, world-class fisheries. These multi-day trips require boats with serious range and capability—something Black Book Charters is built for.

Each of our charters is operated on a privately owned, captain-maintained sportfish boat, equipped with the gear, tech, and performance needed to succeed in Florida’s fast-paced, ever-changing conditions. Whether you're running to the edge, kiting in the wind, or competing in a high-stakes event, our crews bring the local knowledge and tactical skill that turn good trips into great ones.

Florida is more than a fishing destination—it’s a proving ground. And with Black Book Charters, you’ll have the boat, the crew, and the support to fish it like a pro. From tournament circuits to family-friendly days offshore, we tailor every trip to your goals—and deliver it with precision.
