Ready to get your lines wet and your adrenaline pumping? This top-rated inshore fishing adventure puts you right in the action with some of the most sought-after game fish swimming these waters. Captain and crew handle all the heavy lifting – tackle, bait, ice, and expertise – while you focus on what matters most: landing the fish of a lifetime. Whether you're a weekend warrior or seasoned angler, this trip delivers the goods every single time.
Step aboard the Naughty Girl and you'll quickly see why this charter stays booked solid. The boat comfortably handles up to 6 anglers, giving everyone plenty of elbow room to fight fish without getting tangled up. Your captain knows these waters like the back of his hand – where the blue marlin cruise, where amberjack stack up on structure, and exactly when the mahi bite gets hot. Pack your cooler with snacks and cold drinks because once you're out there, nobody wants to head in early. The crew provides all fishing gear, fresh bait, and years of local knowledge that separates the fish-finders from the fish-catchers. This isn't some cookie-cutter operation – it's a customer favorite that delivers consistent results.
The magic happens through a combination of high-speed trolling and strategic live bait presentations. When targeting pelagics like marlin and mahi, the captain runs a spread of colorful lures and rigged ballyhoo at varying distances behind the boat. Speed and lure selection change based on conditions – rougher seas call for bigger baits, while calm days let you run smaller profiles that finicky fish can't resist. For bottom dwellers like cobia and amberjack, expect to drop live bait or heavy jigs down to structure where these bruisers hang out. The crew keeps multiple rods rigged and ready, switching tactics as fish behavior changes throughout the day. Modern electronics help locate bait schools and temperature breaks, but it's the captain's eye for reading water that puts you on fish consistently.
Blue marlin reign supreme as the ultimate prize – these oceanic gladiators average 200-400 pounds and test every ounce of your strength and determination. Peak season runs late spring through early fall when warm water pushes close to shore. The fight is legendary: screaming runs, spectacular jumps, and arm-burning battles that can last over an hour. Most anglers consider landing a blue marlin a once-in-a-lifetime achievement, and the photo opportunities are absolutely unmatched.
White marlin offer a slightly smaller but equally exciting alternative, typically running 60-80 pounds with the same acrobatic tendencies as their larger cousins. These fish show up consistently during summer months and provide world-class action on lighter tackle. Their speed and jumping ability make them a favorite among sport fishing enthusiasts who appreciate finesse over brute force.
Mahi-mahi, also called common dolphinfish, bring non-stop action and beautiful colors that practically glow in the sunlight. These 15-30 pound speedsters travel in schools, so where you find one, you'll usually find more. They hit trolled baits aggressively and put on an aerial show that gets everyone on the boat excited. Plus, they're absolutely delicious, making them perfect for anglers who like to eat their catch.
Greater amberjack are the bulldogs of the reef – powerful, stubborn fish that test your tackle and technique. These 30-60 pound bruisers live around wrecks and hard bottom, making powerful runs straight toward structure when hooked. They're renowned for their strength and make excellent table fare when prepared properly. Fall and winter months often produce the biggest specimens.
Cobia are one of the most underrated game fish swimming – they're curious, aggressive, and absolutely delicious. These brown sharks (as some locals call them) cruise shallow waters and around floating debris. They'll often swim right up to the boat, giving anglers a clear shot with live bait or jigs. A good cobia runs 25-50 pounds and fights like a fish twice its size, making long, powerful runs that will have you questioning your drag settings.
This charter fills up fast, especially during peak fishing months when conditions are prime and fish are most active. The Naughty Girl's reputation for putting clients on fish means smart anglers book well in advance to secure their preferred dates. With everything provided except your food and drinks, all you need to do is show up ready to fish.

Makaira NigricansBlue marlin are the heavyweights of our waters - females can hit 1,000+ pounds while males top out around 350. These deep blue giants with that signature spear bill cruise warm offshore waters, usually found along temperature breaks and current edges. They're migratory, so timing matters, but when they're here, the action is real. What makes them special? Pure power and acrobatics - they'll jump, run, and test every inch of your gear. The meat's firm and tasty too. Pro tip: when trolling, keep your eyes on the spread behind the boat, not just the baits. Blues often show up as a dark shadow before they strike, giving you a split second to get ready for the fight of your trip.
Rachycentron CanadumCobia are the brown submarines that cruise solo around structure - buoys, wrecks, and channel markers in 30-70 feet. These torpedo-shaped fish average 6 feet and 100 pounds, often mistaken for sharks until you see that distinctive flat head. Spring migration and spawning season are prime, when they're shallow and aggressive. Guests love cobia because they fight like freight trains and make some of the best table fare around - firm, white meat with zero fishy taste. They're curious fish that'll follow the boat, giving you multiple shots. Best tip: sight-fish them with bucktail jigs in any color. When you see one, cast ahead and work the jig slow - they'll usually eat it on the fall.
Coryphaena HippurusMahi-mahi are the colorful speedsters that put on a show both in the water and on the plate. These golden-green beauties average 15-29 pounds and love hanging under floating debris, weed lines, or anything drifting on the surface. They're around most of the year in warm water, but spring and summer are peak times. What makes them a favorite? They fight hard, jump often, and taste amazing - mild, sweet, firm white meat that's perfect for the grill. Plus, where you find one, there's usually more. My go-to trick is making your bait skip on the surface when trolling - mahi go crazy for that flying fish action and will come up hot to smash it.
Seriola dumeriliGreater amberjack are the bruisers that live around structure - think wrecks, reefs, and ledges in 30-200 feet of water. These bluish-grey fighters average 39 pounds but can push 6 feet and really test your tackle. Spring through fall is prime time when they're most active and feeding heavy. What guests love about AJs is that hard initial run and stubborn fight - they'll try to wrap you around whatever structure they're near. The meat's excellent eating, firm white flesh that grills up perfect. Here's the key: when you hook one, keep steady pressure and don't give them slack to run back to the rocks. Heavy tackle helps, but the real trick is getting them up and away from cover quickly.
Kajikia AlbidaWhite marlin are the smaller, quicker cousins of the blue marlin, running up to 180 pounds with that same spear bill and jumping ability. These apex predators roam deep offshore waters along temperature breaks and canyon edges, constantly moving to breathe. Peak season varies, but warmer months in blue water are your best bet. What makes them special is their speed and acrobatics - they'll test your reflexes and put on an aerial show. The hunt itself is thrilling since they're smart and wary. When trolling with ballyhoo, don't watch the bait - watch the water around it. Whites are sneaky strikers who'll appear like shadows before they hit. Once hooked, let them take line initially before setting the hook hard.
