Welcome to Ultimate Sportfishing with Captain Rob Archibald!

We believe that we offer the best deep sea fishing trips in South Florida! Captain Rob, owner of Ultimate Sportfishing, is a lifelong resident of the Fort Lauderdale area and has spent his entire life doing what he loves – fishing. The pursuit of offshore gamefish has never grown old for Rob and ultimately led to his full time adventure as a charter captain.

Our vessel, “The Crowd Pleaser”, is a 45′ Hatteras—a wide, stable, and tournament-rigged boat, ensuring a comfortable ride for your fishing trip. Equipped with three fighting chairs for easy fish landing in multiple hook-ups, the boat features full air-conditioning, a spacious salon, kitchen, two bathrooms, television, and a full-sized refrigerator for your convenience.

Guests can enjoy the ride in comfort and style, with the option to join the captain upstairs for the best view. We offer half-day, three-quarter, and full-day South Florida fishing trips for up to six people, and scenic intracoastal cruises by the hour, recommended at sunset. Onboard the Crowd Pleaser, we provide top-of-the-line fishing tackle, covering every style of South Florida fishing imaginable.
