Thresher Shark
Miami's deep offshore waters offer a thrilling chance to tangle with thresher sharks. What makes this area special is the proximity of the Gulf Stream, bringing nutrient-rich waters and attracting baitfish that threshers love. The best time to target them here is generally from late spring through summer, when the water warms up. Focus your efforts in areas with strong currents and underwater structure. A helpful tip is to check local fishing reports for recent sightings and successful techniques, as thresher patterns can shift. For boat access, Haulover Marina is a popular choice. Be prepared for a long day on the water, as these sharks often roam far offshore.
