Miami, South Florida
Bottom Fishing & Wreck Fishing

Miami is home for many sunken shipwrecks. Most of them were sunk intentionally in the late 70’s and early 80’s. Some were confiscated from the government for drug running in the early 80’s. They were donated and sunk in strategic locations.

They have become habitat for species such as grouper, mutton snapper, cobia, amberjack, african pompano, permit and many others.

We anchor up current of these structures and chum the fish to us. We usually have two rods on the bottom and two on the surface. The surface baits will catch kingfish, bonito, tuna, sailfish and dorado.

You better have some big muscles for this. Big amberjacks and groupers will fight harder then anything else while trying to get back to their home. When they hit. A massive tug of war begins. The groupers here can weigh up to 50 pounds. Most are in the 25 pound class. All the bottom species are very good eating.
