GUIDE TO FORT LAUDERDALE SPORT FISHING

Types of Fort Lauderdale Sport Fishing and Fort Lauderdale Deep Sea Fishing

Trolling:
This type of fishing consists of cruising up and down the coast using bait or lures. They are pulled at an average speed of 6-12 knots depending on the species you desire and the depth of water.
Kite fishing:
Kite fishing is a different method of presenting live bait. The bait is suspended vertically from the kite to the water.This is one of the most productive ways to catch sailfish,sharks,dolphin,kingfish,etc.
Wreck Bottom:

Live bait, dead bait and jigs are all used. Some of the most preferred eating fish (such as Snapper and Grouper) as well as some of the most powerful fish (Amberjack) are caught when wreck and

bottom fishing.
