Premier West Palm Beach 6-Hour Fishing Charter

Charter Fishing Palm Beach | 6 Hour Seasonal Trip

Ready to hit the deep blue off West Palm Beach for some serious rod-bending action? Our 6-hour offshore charter is the perfect mix of reef and pelagic fishing, giving you a taste of everything Palm Beach waters have to offer. Whether you're chasing hard-fighting bottom dwellers or lightning-fast surface predators, this trip's got you covered. Grab your sunscreen and let's get out there!

What to Expect on the Water

We'll start the day bright and early, heading out from the marina as the sun's just peeking over the horizon. The first stop? Rich reef structures teeming with tasty bottom-feeders. You'll drop lines for snapper, grouper, and amberjack - these bruisers put up one heck of a fight! Once we've filled the cooler with some reef candy, we'll push further offshore. Here's where things get real exciting. We'll troll for sailfish, mahi mahi, wahoo, and king mackerel. When these speedsters hit, hold on tight! The drags will be screaming and you'll be grinning from ear to ear. With six hours on the water, we've got time to mix it up and chase whatever's biting best that day.

Techniques & Tactics

This trip's all about variety, so we'll use a mix of fishing methods to put you on the fish. For the reef fishing, we'll set you up with sturdy bottom rigs and live bait. It's all about feeling that telltale thump and setting the hook hard. When we push offshore, we'll switch gears to trolling. We'll run a spread of lures and rigged ballyhoo, covering water until we find the fish. Keep your eyes peeled for birds working the surface - that's often a dead giveaway for schools of mahi underneath. If the bite's hot, we might even break out the kites. Watching a sailfish come up on a kite bait is a sight you won't soon forget!

Customer Stories

"Such an awesome outing! We brought in four keeper mahi, all on the larger side. Just two of them were more than enough to feed six people for both lunch and dinner—with leftovers to spare. Definitely recommend this trip!" - Fred

"Captain Robert is the best!" - Joann

Species You'll Want to Hook

Atlantic Sailfish: The crown jewel of Palm Beach sportfishing, sailfish are known for their incredible aerial displays. These acrobatic fighters can reach speeds over 60 mph and will tail-walk across the surface, putting on a show you'll never forget. Winter and early spring are prime time for sails off Palm Beach.

King Mackerel: Also known as "kingfish," these toothy predators are built for speed. They'll smoke a reel, making blistering runs that'll have your arms burning. Kings can top 50 pounds, with spring and fall being the best seasons to target them.

Barracuda: With a mouthful of razor-sharp teeth and a bad attitude to match, 'cudas are always a fun catch. They hit lures hard and fast, often putting on aerial displays rivaling their billfish cousins. You can catch these year-round, but they're especially active in warmer months.

Mahi Mahi: Also called dorado or dolphinfish, mahi are prized for both their fighting ability and their delicious meat. These colorful fish often travel in schools, so when you find one, you've likely found many. They're a summertime favorite, with peak season from May to September.

Wahoo: If you're after pure speed, wahoo are your target. These streamlined torpedoes can hit 60 mph and strip line from a reel faster than you can blink. They're seasonal visitors, with best action in late winter and early spring.

Cobia: These curious fish often shadow large rays, turtles, or even sharks. Cobia put up a dogged fight, using their broad tails to bull-dog their way back to the bottom. They're most common in spring and fall, but can be caught year-round.

Why Anglers Keep Coming Back

It's long enough to get out to the good fishing grounds and put some serious bend in the rods, but not so long that you're completely wiped out at the end of the day. Plus, the variety can't be beat. Where else can you start your morning wrestling grouper off the bottom and end it with a sailfish dancing on the horizon? Add in the fact that you're fishing some of the most productive waters in Florida, and it's no wonder why our regulars book this trip again and again.
