Our Fort Lauderdale Bowfishing Charters deliver high-adrenaline action targeting invasive species under powerful LED lights in South Florida’s freshwater canal systems. Whether you’re a first-timer or an experienced outdoorsman, this is one of the most exciting ways to experience Florida after dark.
Species We Target
Fort Lauderdale is one of the best invasive species bowfishing destinations in Florida.
Common targets include:
• Tilapia
• Snakehead
• Clown Knife Fish
• Plecostomus
• Gar
• And other invasive species
Every trip is unique — some nights are fast and furious, others are steady and strategic. That’s part of the thrill.
-
South Florida’s water temperatures affect fish movement, so we structure our trips based on seasonal feeding patterns.
☀️ Spring & Summer Schedule
March 15 – November 15
• 8:00 PM – 12:00 AM
• 1:00 AM – 4:00 AM (Late Night Option)During warmer months, fish move into shallow canal edges under the lights later in the evening, making these time slots highly productive.
❄️ Winter Schedule
November 16 – March 14
• 6:00 PM – 10:00 PM
• 11:00 PM – 3:00 AMCooler temperatures shift fish activity slightly earlier, which is why winter departures begin sooner in the evening.
☀️ Daytime bowfishing trips are available upon request, though night trips are typically far more productive under lights.
