Reel in Big Game on Boca's Blue Waters

Ready to tangle with some serious offshore monsters? Chlophish Charters has you covered with our 4-hour private morning trip that'll get your heart racing and your drag screaming. We're talking world-class fishing just minutes from Boca Raton's shores, where the Gulf Stream brings in the big boys looking for a fight. Whether you're a seasoned pro or it's your first time wetting a line, our expert crew will put you on the fish and show you the ropes. Sailfish, tuna, mahi – they're all on the menu, and trust me, they're hungry.

What to Expect on the Water

As soon as we clear the inlet, it's game on. We'll run to the hotspots where the bite's been on fire, rigging up with live bait or lures depending on what's working. Our state-of-the-art electronics help us find the fish, but it's the captain's years of local knowledge that'll give you the edge. We provide top-notch gear, so all you need to focus on is the thrill of the fight. With a max of 3 anglers, you'll have plenty of elbow room and personal attention from the crew. Just remember to bring some snacks, drinks, and sunscreen – the Florida sun doesn't mess around out here.

Techniques That Land Lunkers

Offshore fishing is a whole different ballgame, and we've got all the plays. We'll likely start by slow-trolling live baits – maybe some frisky goggle-eyes or blue runners – perfect for enticing those big pelagics. If the conditions are right, we might switch it up with some kite fishing, letting those baits dance on the surface where sailfish and mahi can't resist. For the tuna and wahoo, high-speed trolling with artificial lures can trigger some explosive strikes. Whatever the fish are biting on, we'll adapt and make sure you're in on the action. And when that reel starts singing? That's when the real fun begins – get ready for an arm-workout and some serious bragging rights.

Target Species Breakdown

Blackfin Tuna: These speedsters are pound-for-pound some of the hardest fighting fish in the ocean. They school up year-round in our waters, but the fall and winter months can see some epic blitzes. Look for birds working the surface – that's often a dead giveaway for a tuna frenzy below. These footballs with fins can top 30 pounds, and make for some of the best sashimi you'll ever taste.

Atlantic Sailfish: The crown jewel of South Florida fishing, sailfish are the acrobats of the sea. Spring and winter are prime time, but we get shots at them year-round. Nothing beats watching a sail light up electric blue, slice through the water, and launch into the air. They're catch-and-release only, but the photos and memories last a lifetime.

King Mackerel: Also known as Kingfish, these toothy critters are speed demons. They're here all year but really fire up in the cooler months. Trolling spoons or slow-trolling live baits is the ticket. When they sky on a bait, it's a sight you won't forget. They can push 50 pounds, and make for some mean fish dip.

Mahi Mahi: These neon-colored beauties, also called dorado or dolphinfish, are the perfect gamefish. They fight hard, jump like crazy, and taste incredible. Summer is the peak season, but we catch them year-round. Look for floating debris or weedlines – that's where they love to hang out. From schoolies to big bulls over 30 pounds, mahi always put on a show.

Wahoo: The fastest fish in the sea, wahoo are like striped torpedoes. They're a bit more elusive, but when we connect, hold on tight. High-speed trolling is often the key, and the strikes are violent. Fall and winter are the best bets, but you never know when one might show up. They can top 100 pounds, and the meat is out of this world.

Why Anglers Keep Coming Back

Boca Raton might be known for its beaches and fancy resorts, but ask any serious angler, and they'll tell you – the offshore fishing here is legit. We're talking about some of the most productive waters in the entire state, where the Gulf Stream runs close to shore and brings in a smorgasbord of gamefish. One day you might be battling sailfish, the next it's a cooler full of mahi and tuna. And let's be real, there's nothing like that salt air in your face as you're cruising out to the grounds, knowing that your next cast could be the one that hooks into the fish of a lifetime.

Time to Book Your Spot

Our 4-hour morning trip is the perfect slice of offshore action, whether you're sneaking out before work or kick-starting your vacation the right way. We've got the knowledge, the gear, and the passion to make your day on the water unforgettable. So what are you waiting for? Give us a call, lock in your date, and get ready to experience some of the best fishing the Atlantic has to offer. Trust me, once you feel that first run from a big pelagic, you'll be hooked for life. Let's go fishing!

Learn more about the species

Atlantic Sailfish

Atlantic sailfish are the sprinters of the ocean. These beautiful fish can reach speeds over 60 mph and put on quite a show when hooked. You'll find them in blue water, usually 100-300 feet deep near the edge of the Gulf Stream. Winter is prime sailfish season off Boca. They average 6-8 feet long and 60-80 pounds. Anglers love sailfish for their acrobatic jumps and blistering runs. It's all catch-and-release, focused on the thrill of the fight. We typically troll with ballyhoo or lures to find sailfish. Once hooked, be ready for some airborne action. These fish will leap clear out of the water, shaking that big sail-like dorsal fin. Pro tip: when a sailfish jumps, lower your rod tip to keep tension off the line. It helps prevent them from throwing the hook.

Atlantic Sailfish

Blackfin Tuna

Blackfin tuna are the smallest of the tuna family, but they pack a punch. These sleek fish typically weigh 15-30 pounds and put up an exciting fight. You'll find them in deeper offshore waters, usually 100-300 feet down. They love to hang around structure like reefs and wrecks. Late summer through fall is prime blackfin season off Boca. These fish are fast and strong for their size, making them a blast to catch on light tackle. Their meat is excellent for sushi or seared rare. To land a blackfin, try vertical jigging with butterfly jigs or live bait like pilchards. Keep an eye out for birds working the surface - that's a good sign blackfin are feeding. When you hook one, be ready for some screaming runs. These little powerhouses will test your gear and your arms.

Blackfin Tuna

King Mackerel

King mackerel, or "kingfish," are one of our most popular targets. These sleek predators cruise the nearshore waters, usually in 30-150 feet of depth. They're known for blazing speed and hard strikes. Kings average 10-20 pounds but can top 50. Fall is prime kingfish season as they migrate south. Anglers love kings for their smoking runs and tasty fillets. We often slow-troll live bait like blue runners or cigar minnows for kings. When one hits, hang on tight - they're famous for screaming initial runs that can dump half your reel. Wire leaders are a must to prevent bite-offs from those razor sharp teeth. For a real thrill, try sight-casting to cruising kings with light tackle. Just be ready to chase them down when they take off!

King Mackerel

Mahi Mahi or Common Dolphinfish

Mahi-mahi, also called dorado or dolphinfish, are some of the most beautiful fish in the ocean. They're known for their dazzling blue-green and gold colors. You'll find them in open water, often around floating debris or weedlines. Mahi average 15-30 pounds but can reach over 50. Summer and fall are peak seasons off Boca. They're popular for their acrobatic fights and excellent table fare. We often troll with rigged ballyhoo or artificial lures for mahi. Once you find a school, you can often keep them near the boat by leaving a hooked fish in the water. Mahi are fast growers and great eating, so we don't mind keeping a few for dinner. Pro tip: When you spot a mahi, cast a live bait or bright jig right in front of it. They're aggressive feeders and will often strike immediately. Be ready for some wild jumps once hooked!

Mahi Mahi or Common Dolphinfish

Wahoo Fish

Wahoo are the speed demons of the ocean. These streamlined fish can hit 60 mph in short bursts. You'll find them in deep blue water, usually 100-300 feet down near ledges and dropoffs. Wahoo average 30-50 pounds but can top 100. Late summer through fall is prime wahoo season off Boca. Anglers love wahoo for their blistering runs and excellent eating quality. We often high-speed troll with wire lines and heavy lures for wahoo. When one hits, it's like hooking a freight train. Be ready for smoking runs that can dump hundreds of yards of line in seconds. Wahoo have razor-sharp teeth, so wire leaders are a must. For a real challenge, try deep jigging with knife jigs. Just be prepared to lose some gear - wahoo are famous for biting through even heavy mono. The payoff is worth it though - wahoo make some of the best fish tacos you'll ever taste!
