A typical Dry Tortugas fishing trip lasts three days aboard a cruise vessel. Be sure to ask around for the ideal boat, because there are many companies claiming to offer the best trip. Make sure your trip offers food as well, just one less thing you'll have to worry about carrying on board the vessel.
The most common type and size of fish caught in Dry Tortugas fishing is roughly a 30 – 40 lb. Kingfish. Yes, that big! After most trips you'll have more fish then you'll know what to do with.
Be sure to have plenty of fishing supplies on your trip, including two fishing poles and reels (just in case if something happens to one), your best lures, knives, and pliers. Once you're on the boat there is no turning back, so it is best to have everything you need with you. But don't forget that you can always borrow something if absolutely necessary. Don't forget sunblock for your face and neck, and some good icy-hot for those sore muscles.
A Dry Tortugas fishing trip is highly recommended by many fisherman. They are a great get away and everyone seems to catch plenty of huge fish and have a great time doing it. The only problems are sore arms and sun burnt necks!
