I'm Captain BrYan, I have been fishing for 45 years now and have been running a boat since I was 16 years old. I am a US Coast Guard licensed 100 Ton Master Captain. I have fished and delivered boats throughout the Carribean, South Atlantic and Gulf of México to such places as all of the Bahamas, Turks and Caicos, St Thomas and the Dominican Republic, to name a few. i have fishing spots and connections everywhere. i currently reside in Miami Beach and provide daily charters out of Haulover Inlet. I offer 5hr, 8hr and 12hr offshore, big game trips as well as Sword fishing trips, night monster fishing trips, party cruises to the Haulover Sandbar and multi day trips to the Bahamas and the Keys.

I just purchased my dream boat, Poseidon, a 36' Yellowfin with triple 275 hp Mercury Verados. This is a serious fishing machine built specificslly for offshore fishing. Poseidon has 2 live wells, 2 independent fish finders , Garmin and Raymarine complete with redundant radar and chart plotters, 5 electric reel outlets, ice chest for drinks, 3 fish boxes, 49 rod holders, head, bean bag, lighting all the way around the entire boat, 7 underwater lights, all the rods , reels and tackle to take down anything that swims in the Ocean, emergency device, dual independent VHF radios, a bumping JL sound system with Bluetooth and much more!

I apply many different techniques to catch fish such as trolling, live bait fishing, kite fishing, bump trolling live and dead bait, vertical jigging, deep dropping, bottom fishing and drift fishing. The species targeted are Tuna, Dolphin (Mahi), Sailfish, Kingfish, Wahoo, Snapper, Grouper, Goliath Grouper, Amberjack, Golden Tile Fish, Black Belly Rose Fish, Swordfish, Shark, Cobia, Mackeral and many more. I provide a variety of different trips ranging from half day trips (5 hours instead of 4 hours), full day (8 hours) trips, 12 hours long range trips, Sword fishing trips, monster night fishing trips, Bahamas trips and Keys trips.

I provide live bait on every trip free of charge and you don't have to fish for them! Children of all ages are welcome, as well as handicapped persons. Please advise in advance if you require special assistance so we can be prepared to accomodate you.

I fish everyday of the year and I love my job. Taking people fishing is what I live for.

Our initial fishing experience was guided by Captain Bryan, an incredibly enthusiastic person who patiently addressed all our questions. Although the first few hours were without a catch, once we secured our first fish, everything fell into place seamlessly. Thanks to the captain's patience and dedicated efforts, it turned out to be the most exhilarating and enjoyable day of my stay in Miami!

I always feel content when one of my sons expresses a desire to do this every day. Captain Bryan went above and beyond to ensure we had an enjoyable time. Despite the excellent equipment that positioned us directly over schools of fish, unfortunately, they weren't biting. However, we did manage to catch a unique-looking tuna. While there's no guarantee of catching a ton of fish, it still resulted in a fantastic day.

Knowledgeable Captain and first mate. Very friendly. We had some issues that Captain Bryan made right for us and hung out while he made us ceviche out of the Hake fish we caught during the deep drop. Would recommend

Knows his stuff. Great Captain!

Captain Bryan was phenomenal! I’ve been on quite of few fishing charters and his was by far my top trip. He really enjoys what he does and takes the time to explain everything and make sure everyone is having a good time no matter what their experience level is. We caught an EXTREMELY rare fish called the Cubera Snapper on our trip. He’s your guy for a Miami fishing trip!
