Dust’em Off Sailfish Warmup

South Florida’s Dust’em Off Sailfish Warmup is the unofficial ignition switch for winter sailfish season. The 2026 event runs December 2–6 out of Miami and Palm Beach, with a single fishing day that gives teams a chance to dial in the spread, sharpen communication, and raise flags early. Black Book connects teams with privately owned, captain-maintained sportfish vessels, tournament-ready tackle, and crews among the most accomplished in the world.
