We are planning to attend the Miami Boat Show and then go deep-sea fishing off of the Ft. Lauderdale or Pompano Beach area for a day. Wed love to get into some sailfish, dolphin, white marlin, tuna, kingfish, and/or wahoo. The date is Feb. 19. <br /><br />Someone who lives in the area recently told me that the off-shore fishing is not as good right off Ft. Lauderdale as it is either going south to the Miami area or a little north to the Palm Beach area.<br /><br />Two questions:<br />1. Does anyone know if going somewhat north or south and then renting a charter service for the day would be better than going out of Ft. Lauderdale/Pompano Beach?<br />2. Does anyone know of a good charter service to recommend? (there will be 6 of us)<br /><br /> Thank you in advance.<br /><br />BV
