Trolling Fort Lauderdale   As we all got our eyes on both Tropical storms Marco and Laura heading in the South Florida direction we were hopping to get in a couple more fishing trips before we had to start tying our boats up and battening down the hatches. As it turned out today the seas were real calm and the sun was shining.   We started out thi...

Tiger Sharks off Fort Lauderdale   This afternoon we went out fishing with Steve and his girl Melissa from Miami Florida. As we set out Melissa said how she would love to catch a shark.

I mean all 3 guys were first class and to make matters even better I was also fishing with my son Lou who I don’t get to fish with often because he runs one of our boats while I run another.

Today we had a blast fishing with Brain and Danny from Minnesota. We went right to trolling in about 400 feet of water around all these schools of small tuna hitting on these minnows and while we knew that these tunas had their eyes set on these minnows and nothing else we were looking for what might be feeding on these tunas. So we set out 2 bait...

I recently received a great question from a new angler of mine regarding why Islamorada fishing guides are usually the one holding the tarpon in the photos.
