Charter information

Areas covered:

Inshore, Everglades National Park Flamingo to Everglades city :

Flamingo has the most productive inshore fishing in South Florida. Inshore there is a choice of launching on the Florida Bay or Whitewater Bay ramps. Both sides lead to extensive shallow water fishing. Tailing the Tides charters specializes in Fly Fishing and light tackle for redfish, snook, and tarpon. We offer anglers the opportunity to explore areas of Florida Bay which are rarely seen by others. 

Florida Everglades fishing is a unique experience with multiple species caught year-round. The Everglades backcountry is a maze of mangrove lined tidal creeks, estuaries, and grass flats that are teaming with life. 

Biscayne bay :  

 In sight of downtown Miami Biscayne Bay flats can hold tarpon, bonefish, permit, sharks, seatrout, and barracudas. The Bay is within minutes from most hotels. offering an excellent fishery for a quick trip or day long adventure.

Fort Lauderdale area night trips available:   

Ft Lauderdale inshore fishing can be just as exciting and close to local hotels and a quickly assessable fishery.

All Fort Lauderdale waterways during certain times of the year are loaded with tarpon and snook.  Fort Lauderdale at night provides tremendous fishing in the canals just off the Intracoastal Waterway and around docks with underwater lights.

Those lights will attract bait-fish and the predators and is great for fly fisherman and light tackle anglers.

Early morning and late evenings are best when targeting tarpon and snook. Anglers visiting Ft. Lauderdale and Miami on business cannot fish during the day. Fishing at night maybe perfect for that situation!

 Hello I am Captain Brett Miller,

 I have been fishing the waters of South Florida my entire life. In 1996 after years of offshore and freshwater fishing I ventured into the shallows. This started my addiction for shallow water fishing. I was hooked!

I have over 25 years of experience fishing various areas of South Florida. I am also a former guide/owner at Shallow Water Expeditions in South Florida.  I am now excited with my new opportunity with Tailing the Tides, guided fly and light tackle fishing.

The shallow waters around Everglades National Park have some of the best year-round fishing in Florida. I look forward to guiding you on amazing adventures on the flats and into the vast back country of the park.

Feel free to reach out to me. I will answer all your questions about myself, locations, availability, or special trip requests.
