Expert Offshore Fishing Charter in West Palm Beach

Reel in the Big Ones: West Palm Beach Offshore Adventure

Get ready to feel that rod bend and your heart race as you battle some of the ocean's most exciting fish just off the coast of West Palm Beach. Our half-day offshore charter takes you straight to where the action is, targeting trophy-sized gag grouper, lightning-fast barracuda, and a whole lot more. Whether you're a seasoned angler or it's your first time wetting a line, our expert crew will make sure you're in for a day of non-stop fishing excitement.

What's Waiting Out There

As soon as we clear the inlet, you'll feel the anticipation build. We're talking about heading to some of the most productive fishing grounds in South Florida, where the Gulf Stream brings in a smorgasbord of gamefish. Our captain knows these waters like the back of their hand, and they'll put you right on top of the fish. You'll be using top-of-the-line gear, rigged and ready for whatever decides to bite. From the moment you drop your bait, be ready – these fish don't mess around, and neither do we when it comes to putting our clients on the fish.

Fishing That'll Get Your Blood Pumping

We don't just drift around hoping for a bite. Our crew is all about active fishing. We'll be deploying a mix of techniques to target different species. For those grouper, we might be dropping live bait to the bottom or jigging. When we're after barracuda, get ready for some high-speed trolling that'll have you hanging on tight. And if the mahi are running, we'll be on the lookout for floating debris and birds – telltale signs that it's time to break out the light tackle and have some fun. The variety keeps things interesting, and you never know what might decide to crash the party on any given day.

Anglers Can't Stop Talking About It

"Chris Winters was the captain for our trip. We were all beginners or first timers, with my son's family. All of our needs and wishes were accommodated with ease. Chris made us all comfortable for fast and slow portions of the trip. We caught a mahi tuna we had to give back and then some fish that were used as bait to feed the sharks! Very exciting and fun. Wouldn't hesitate to use Glass Action again or recommend to others !" - Larry

"Awesome dudes!!!!" - Demetrio

"Capt Winters can put you on the fish. Sailfish, Wahoo, Grouper, Marlin, triple tail, and Snook! I have never gone out with him without catching fish! Glass Action Charters is the most experienced charter guy in Palm Beach!! Hands down! Fishing inshore or off shore you won't be disappointed! Capt Jeff Winters is the guy!" - Kimberly

Fish That'll Make Your Day

Mahi Mahi, or Common Dolphinfish, are the acrobats of the offshore world. These guys are known for their spectacular aerial displays once hooked, and their vibrant colors make for amazing photos. They travel in schools, so when you find one, you've often found many. Spring and summer are prime time for mahi, and they can grow up to 30 pounds in our waters. The fight is only half the fun – mahi are also excellent eating fish, known for their mild, sweet flavor.

Hogfish might not look like much, but they're a prized catch for those in the know. These oddly-shaped fish are masters of camouflage, blending in with the reef. They're typically caught while bottom fishing, and it takes a bit of finesse to get them to bite. The real treat comes when it's time for dinner – hogfish are considered one of the best-tasting fish in the sea, with a delicate, sweet flavor that's hard to beat.

The Great Barracuda is the speed demon of the reef. These toothy predators can reach speeds of up to 35 mph when chasing prey. They're known for their aggressive strikes and powerful runs that'll test your gear and your skills. While they're found year-round, the bigger ones tend to show up in the cooler months. Barracuda can grow to over 5 feet long, and hooking into one of these monsters is an experience you won't forget.

Gag Grouper are the heavyweights of the bottom-dwelling world. These bruisers can grow up to 50 pounds and are known for their powerful first run – once hooked, they'll try to dive back into their rocky lairs. It's a true test of strength and technique to turn their heads and get them to the boat. The cooler months are best for targeting gags, and there's nothing quite like the satisfaction of winning the tug-of-war with one of these giants.

Scamp Grouper might be smaller than their gag cousins, but they make up for it in flavor. These fish are highly sought after for their sweet, delicate meat. They tend to hang out in deeper waters, so targeting them often means using electric reels or deep-dropping techniques. Scamp are available year-round, but like many grouper species, they're at their most active in the cooler months. Landing a scamp is always a cause for celebration on board.
