5 Fathers Day gift Ideas for Dads who love fishing in Florida
Does your Dad already have a collection of “world’s best Dad” mugs? Is he the type of guy who buys everything for himself that he wants, making gift giving impossible? Does he dream about fishing all day long? If so, here are five clever gift ideas for Dads who like to fish.
Number 5: Fort Lauderdale / South Florida Fly Fishing Trip
Sure you can go on one of our Fort Lauderdale deep sea fishing charters on the big blue sea (hint: that’s coming later), but for something truly unique, send your Dad out for the day on something a little different. Our Fort Lauderdale backwater and flats fishing trips include trips to the Everglades, Biscayne Bay, and local lakes and canals. For a real treat, we can arrange a peacock bass fishing trip in Fort Lauderdale. In case you haven’t heard of Peacock bass, their a species of bass that are native to Brazil and have somehow made their way into Fort Lauderdale area lakes and canals. These bad boys put up a great fight and are a local favorite.
Set Aside: $400 – $600

Number 4: Live Mackerel Dredge Bar
Tell your dad to quit wasting time with kites when he’s Sailfishing in Fort Lauderdale. The dredge bar comes pre-rigged with 9 baits and 6 spoon flashers to get those sails excited. The dredge is pre-rigged with 300-lb. mono throughout.
12” Live Mackerel are pre-rigged and swim upright at 1-7 knots. The dredge includes an easy-to-rinse mesh bag.
For speeds over 4 knots, use a 24-ounce trolling sinker to keep your rig down at the desired depth. The snap swivel at the end of the daisy chain will allow you to connect a fishing line with your hooked bait/lure via a rubber band. Your bait will always follow the “school.” Size: 31-1/2” x 72”.
Set Aside: $200

Number 3: Leatherman Charge TTi
Building on the success of the Charge AL and ALX the TTi could just be the mack daddy of Leathermans. And a man can never have too many leathermans. Besides a host of obvious tools, the TTi has a sculpted titanium handle that is comfortable, light, and most importantly, won’t rust.
Set Aside: $110

Number 2: GoPro HD Hero 2 Outdoor Edition
The GoPro Hero 2 is the company’s best waterproof, shockproof, pretty much everything-proof, HD camera. The outdoor edition comes with a headstrap mount, which, although totally ridiculous looking, is perfect for capturing your Dad’s next fight with an ocean monster. Plus, it’s always good for some silly frat-house humor your Dad secretly (or not so secretly) loves.
Set Aside: $300

Number 1: Ultra Luxury Fishing Charter Aboard a 65’ Viking Platinum Edition Sportfish
Unless your Dad belongs to the top 1% chances are he definitely doesn’t have one of these: a 65 foot Viking Platinum Edition sport fishing yacht. The boat is complete with luxurious staterooms, flatscreen TVs everywhere, a killer entertainment system, top of the line kitchen, and tournament grade fishing equipment and tackle. Sure, a day on the water will set you back almost 45 Benjamins, but hey, that beats the $3+ million price tag on one of these bad boys. Quick, how many Benjamins is that?!
