Set sail in luxury with Ringmaster Charters, where you can experience unforgettable fishing adventures. With the Gulf Stream flowing past Pompano Beach, you'll have access to an abundance of delicious, big game fish, ensuring a memorable day on the water. Captain John Caselli, a third-generation fisherman, has been fishing professionally since he was 14. He’s explored waters across the U.S. and the Caribbean but has called Hillsboro Inlet home since the age of 20, and he’s eager to share his wealth of knowledge and expertise with every guest.

Step aboard the 53' Hatteras convertible, designed for comfort with three air conditioners, plenty of seating both indoors and outdoors, and a fridge and icebox for refreshments. You'll experience true luxury while on board. Catering options can be arranged, or feel free to bring your own food and make use of the kitchen. Powered by twin 650 HP diesel engines, the boat will swiftly carry you to prime fishing spots, ready to hook some powerful fish.

Fishing here is conveniently close to shore—Pompano Beach is the closest deep water spot in the continental U.S. Expect to reel in dolphin, wahoo, tuna, sailfish, barracuda, amberjack, and more. While bottom fishing is available, the sharp drop-off here means it’s not like fishing in the Keys or the West Coast. Kite fishing is enjoyed when the conditions are right, though trolling remains our most common fishing technique.

No matter what you catch, you're in for a thrilling challenge, with the first mate there to assist you whenever needed. At the end of the day, the crew will clean and prepare your catch, ready for you to take home and enjoy. Certain species, like Shark and Sailfish, must be released according to regulations, and we follow this practice not only for legal reasons but also to promote healthy releases and sustainable fishing.

Whether you’re a novice or an expert, a trip with Ringmaster Charters will be an exciting experience. Join us for a luxurious and adventurous day on the water!
