Rickenbacker Causeway

Key Biscayne is a great place to fish in Miami but if you don’t have a boat you can always fish off the Rickenbacker Causeway. One of the best fishing spots in Miami is right after you cross the first large bridge you make a right into the parking lot. Once you park just continue to walk to the end where you will probably see other people fishing. The best time to go is in the morning when the sun is coming up you can catch plenty of fish including snappers, sharks, snooks, tarpons, barracuda, and bonefish. The best way to reel them in is by taking some chum and using live bait.

Blackpoint marina is another great fishing spot in Miami. Before making a right into the marina you just keep going straight and you’ll find plenty of parking as well as some picnic tables and a grill.

If you live near Miami Beach or North Miami Beach this is a great spot to fish. This is a great fishing spot to catch a variety of fish including mahi-mahi, amberjack, snapper, sharks, and barracuda.
