Chlophish Charters: Boca Raton Offshore Fishing

Reel in Big Game on Boca's Offshore Waters

Ready to test your skills against some of South Florida's hardest-fighting fish? Hop aboard our afternoon offshore charter and let's hit the deep blue! We'll cruise out of Boca Raton Inlet and into prime fishing grounds where the big boys play. With 4 hours on the water, you'll have plenty of time to hook into some bruisers and maybe even land that fish of a lifetime. Our crew knows these waters like the back of their hand, so get ready for some serious rod-bending action.

What's Biting Offshore

Once we clear the inlet, it's game on. We'll be targeting the heavy hitters that make Boca Raton fishing charters so popular - we're talking sailfish, yellowfin tuna, mahi-mahi, kingfish, wahoo, and grouper. The afternoon bite can be red hot this time of year, especially for pelagics cruising the current edges. We'll set up a spread of live baits, maybe toss out a kite or two, and wait for those reels to start screaming. When a big boy hits, hold on tight - these fish don't go down without a fight!

Tactics for Taming the Big Ones

Offshore fishing is all about reading the water and adjusting your tactics. We might start by slow-trolling live goggle-eyes along a color change, then switch it up to high-speed wahoo lures if we mark some fish on the depth finder. Kite fishing is a local favorite - nothing beats watching a sailfish come up and crash a bait on the surface. For the bottom dwellers like grouper, we'll drop some hefty live baits or jigs. Don't worry if you're new to these techniques, our crew will walk you through every step. Before you know it, you'll be working those rods like a pro.

Why Anglers Keep Coming Back

There's something addictive about battling big fish in the open ocean. Maybe it's the rush when a 50-pound mahi lights up the water with its electric blue sides. Or the heart-pounding moment when a sailfish goes airborne, tail-walking across the waves. Our repeat customers tell us it's the thrill of never knowing what might hit the line next. Plus, with our top-notch gear and local know-how, you've got the best shot at landing that monster fish you've always dreamed about.

Species You'll Want to Hook

King Mackerel: These speedsters are the drag-screaming champions of nearshore waters. "Smoker" kings can top 50 pounds and make blistering runs that'll have you hanging on for dear life. They're most active in cooler months but can be caught year-round. Anglers love kings for their explosive strikes and acrobatic jumps - not to mention they make for some tasty fish dip!

Mahi Mahi: Also known as dorado or dolphinfish, these neon-colored beauties are the prize of many offshore trips. They travel in schools, so when you find one, be ready for multiple hookups. Mahi are famous for their acrobatics - they'll leap and tail-walk across the surface, putting on a show that's as fun to watch as it is to fight. Spring through fall is prime time for mahi, with fish ranging from 5 to 30+ pounds.

Little Tunny: Don't let the name fool you - these "football with fins" pack a serious punch. Also called false albacore or bonito, they're known for their blistering speed and stamina. Pound for pound, they're some of the hardest fighting fish in the ocean. We catch them year-round, but they really show up in numbers during their fall and spring migrations. They average 5-15 pounds but can get much bigger. Watching a school of little tunny bust bait on the surface is a sight you won't forget!
