Kids and fishing in Ft. Lauderdale

A quick report about fishing charters in Ft. Lauderdale involving children. Simple answer is to bring them along. For one we have large safe and comfortable boats.46.5 and 53 feet long. Keeps them as stable as possible (you too). Also our inlet is over 50 feet deep, and deep is best for making the transition from inland to ocean. The inlets to each side of us are a fraction of that 50 foot depth, and can really get sporty with the right (or wrong might be a better choice of words) combination of tides and wind. We have pint sized flotation devices for pint sized kids, not just children and adult sizes. Pint sized rod assortment also to complement our arsenal of big game stuff for bigger kids and adults. We carry many kids on our fishing trips in Ft. Lauderdale, and very often the parents on those charters allot at least a good portion of time directed at catching appropriate sized fished for the younger set. We know, we have kids of our own. As you are likely aware private charters are a flat rate regardless of the number of persons , just don’t exceed the 6 person maximum. So bring your kids of all ages and your camera, and pocket that babysitter money. Enjoy the included photos of the younger set that have all joined us here aboard Marlin My Darlin. It is said “a picture is worth a thousand words”. Pictured are Kings, Bonito, Tunas. Barracudas, Mahi-Mahi, Sailfish, even Shark, a real kid pleaser, and of course the young anglers Most recent are the first four pics of Ashley’s kids fishing with us Tuesday morning on a half day trip three days ago. Our next report will have photos of the same species with kids AND adults, as that if what is happening now. Tight lines, Happy Holidays. For questions and all reservations Capt. JJ @ 954-778-173
