14-Hour Swordfish Hunt: Pensacola's Ultimate Catch

Ready to tangle with one of the ocean's fiercest fighters? Hop aboard our 14-hour offshore adventure and let's chase some broadbills! Captain Jacob knows these waters like the back of his hand, and he's itching to put you on the fish of a lifetime. We're talking serious deep-drop action for swordfish, with plenty of chances to hook into mahi-mahi and grouper along the way. Bring your A-game, some snacks, and get ready for a full day of rod-bending action in the Gulf. Oh, and did I mention you can save 10% by paying upfront? Let's make it happen!

What's the Deal with This Trip?

Alright, here's the scoop: We're pushing way offshore, about 60 miles out, where the big boys play. This ain't no half-day cruise - we're talking 14 solid hours on the hunt. Captain Jacob's got the latest tech and years of experience to put us right where we need to be. We'll be dropping lines way down, sometimes over 1,500 feet, where those swordfish like to hang out. It's a workout, but man, when that rod goes off, it's go-time! Between drops, we'll troll for mahi and maybe even stop to bottom fish for some tasty grouper. Bring your favorite drinks, some grub, and maybe a pillow for the ride out. Trust me, you'll want to be well-rested for when those reels start screaming!

How We Roll on These Trips

Listen up, 'cause this is where it gets good. We're using heavy-duty electric reels for our swordfish drops - these bad boys can handle the extreme depths where broadbills like to chill. We're talking custom-rigged squid baits, glowsticks, and all sorts of fancy gadgets to entice those deep-dwelling giants. For the mahi, we'll be pulling a spread of ballyhoo and artificial lures. And if we stop for grouper? Get ready to muscle up some hefty bottom-dwellers with stout conventional tackle. Captain Jacob's always tweaking his techniques based on the latest intel, so you know you're fishing with cutting-edge methods. Whether you're a seasoned pro or it's your first time offshore, we'll make sure you're in on the action.

Fish Tales from the Gulf

No customer reviews provided for this trip.

The Big Three: What We're After

Swordfish: Let me tell you, hooking into one of these gladiators is like picking a fight with a freight train. They can top 1,000 pounds and put up a battle that'll leave your arms feeling like jelly. We target them year-round, but fall and winter can be especially hot. These deep-dwelling ninjas are known for their acrobatics once you get 'em to the surface - it's a sight you won't forget!

Mahi Mahi: Also known as dorado or dolphinfish, these neon-colored speedsters are a blast to catch and even better to eat. They hunt in packs near floating debris and weedlines, so when we find 'em, it's often non-stop action. Mahi can grow over 50 pounds, but even the smaller "peanuts" will give you a run for your money. Peak season is late spring through summer, but we catch 'em year-round.

Gag Grouper: These bruisers are the bullies of the reef. They love to hang around structure and will try to break you off the second you hook up. Gags can push 50 pounds or more, and they fight dirty all the way up. The meat is top-notch, so if we're lucky enough to land a keeper, you're in for some fine eating. We target them mostly in the cooler months when they move a bit shallower.

Lock In Your Spot and Save

Look, I'm not gonna sugarcoat it - this trip is an investment in pure fishing awesomeness. But here's the kicker: pay in full when you book, and we'll knock 10% right off the top. That's more cash in your pocket for celebratory beers after we dock! Plus, if you're feeling generous, throw a few bucks towards our free trips for military vets. It's a great cause, and karma's got a way of paying back on the water. So what are you waiting for? Grab your crew, lock in that discount, and let's go stick some swordfish! Trust me, this is the kind of day you'll be talking about for years to come. See you at the dock!

Gag Grouper

Gag grouper might not win any beauty contests, but they're a blast to catch and fantastic eating. These bruisers average 20-30 inches but can hit 50 inches and 80 pounds. You'll find them hanging around rocky bottoms, reefs, and shipwrecks from nearshore out to about 300 feet deep. The younger ones stick closer to shore while the big boys head out to deeper structure. Fall and winter are prime seasons when they move into shallower water. Gags are popular targets because they put up a stubborn fight and the meat is top-notch - firm, white, and mild. My go-to rig is a live pinfish or mullet on a circle hook with 40-pound test. Here's the key - once they bite, lock down that drag and crank hard. These guys will dive straight for their hidey-hole if you give them an inch. Get 'em up quick and you'll be rewarded with some of the best fillets in the Gulf.

Mahi Mahi or Common Dolphinfish

Mahi mahi are some of the prettiest fish you'll ever see, with electric blue and green colors that shimmer like crazy underwater. They're fast growers, usually hitting 15-30 pounds and around 3 feet long. You'll find them near the surface around floating debris and weed lines offshore. These guys are super active feeders and they're a blast to catch - they'll jump and run like mad when hooked. Summer's the prime time to target them here. Mahi are popular with our guests because they're exciting to catch and absolutely delicious to eat. The meat is mild and firm, great for grilling. Here's a local tip: keep an eye out for frigate birds circling. They'll often lead you right to a school of mahi feeding on flying fish. When you find them, toss out some live bait like ballyhoo or small blue runners and hang on - the action can be non-stop when you get on a good bunch of mahi.

Swordfish

Swordfish are deep-water powerhouses that'll give you a real run for your money. These big fellas average 9 feet long and 400 pounds, but can hit 15 feet and over 1,000 pounds. They're built for speed, clocking in at 40-60 mph when they want to move. We typically find them in waters 300 feet deep or more, and they go even deeper during the day. Best fishing is April through September when they're spawning. Folks love chasing swordfish for the challenge and the bragging rights - landing one of these is no easy feat. They put up an incredible fight and the meat is top-notch eating. My tip? Use bright, skirt-style lures to mimic squid, their favorite snack. And don't skimp on your gear - you'll want at least 80-pound test line to have a shot at bringing one in. Keep your drag locked down tight, or these guys will dive for cover and snap you off in a heartbeat.
