Good Hit Sportfishing
Experience an unforgettable eight-hour private dolphin-fishing charter in Fort Lauderdale aboard the iconic Good Hit 2.0. Enjoy premium amenities and world-class fishing guided by Good Hit Sportfishing.
Good Hit Sportfishing operates a trio of Fort Lauderdale charter boats—including the iconic Good Hit 2.0 (a 37' Ocean Master featured in Netflix's Bloodline), the state-of-the-art Good Hit 3.0, and the 32' Original ‘Good Hit’. The company offers private and shared charters ranging from four-hour trips to full tournament days and specialized ten-hour swordfish excursions. Trips run as close as one mile offshore, delivering quick access to productive fishing grounds and more time on the water.
Each vessel is outfitted with cutting-edge electronics, ample rod holders, comfortable seating, and safety-minded features to support groups up to six guests. Private five-hour, six-hour, and ten-hour options provide tailored experiences for families, friends, and tournament competitors, while four-hour shared charters give anglers a shorter, affordable option. The Good Hit fleet emphasizes comfort and style—modern sound systems, a Tuna Tower on select boats, and spacious decks make long days offshore enjoyable. With dedicated crews and professional equipment, customers can target species such as dolphin, sailfish, and swordfish. Whether booking a private tournament charter or a relaxed half-day trip, Good Hit Sportfishing focuses on delivering unforgettable memories, reliable service, and an efficient, near-shore departure from Fort Lauderdale.
The fleet's boats include powerful motors and advanced navigation systems that enhance offshore safety and efficiency. Tournament charters are customized to competitor schedules and gear needs, while swordfish trips use specialized rigging and long-range planning for deepwater success. Booking options accommodate private groups up to six guests, and crews prioritize communication, safety briefings, and departures from Fort Lauderdale.
