The first two weeks of December were pretty tough with almost daily 20 to 30 mile an hour winds overcast skies and plenty of rain. In one stretch towards the end of the first half of December we got rain for almost 6 days in a row. However in between the tough weather I was able to get out with some clients and it was actually better than you woul...

The last couple months have been slow business wise. The fishing was pretty good until we started getting Low pressures systems late in the season. 3 separate storms flooded and had gale force winds in south Florida and the Keys. We had no hurricanes but some water/wind issues which just stopped everyday life. If that wasn’t bad enough I had back...

Now is the time that we find sailfish chasing schools …

I ended this month super busy and closing it out in a big way. In Monday I had Nathan from East central Florida.  He's been fishing with me for about 5 years now and dang it every time we fish either the weather stinks or the fishing is dead. Well today the weather was great and with the moon phase I swore the Bonefishing would be on fire. Did you...

The week of Thanksgiving always finds me busy but boy this was another level. I had regular client David and his friend Clay on Sunday for a six hour trip fly fishing for bonefish tarpon permit and then a four hour trip in the afternoon with another regular client Mike. The morning had us finding a few tarpon which we had some shots at on fly an...

This week was a mixed bag of bonefishing and just bending rods and having a good time. My week started off with Victor and his wife from Ukraine and the goal was to catch a few fish for dinner which we quickly did catching fun yellow jacks and tasty snappers. Then we switched off and fished the flats for sharks where we hooked up three or four sha...

I've been so swamped with charters that's it's been hard to update my reports page one trip at a time so I'll update for the week instead.  The week of November 8-11 we focused mostly on bonefish and permit and it worked out most of the time for bonefish but the permit were inconsistent early mornings.   on November 8th I had Charles and his wife...

The weather from my last trip finally broke and was replaced by perfect November conditions.  Thankfully I had Rob from Boston who brought his fly rod and wanted to target bonefish and permit.  Conditions were way off for permit so we focused on bonefish.  The first spot was dead and I started to get a bit anxious hoping it would be a good day.  S...

What a start and not for the good as I fished today with two awesome guys Stephen and Rob.  They wanted to fish for bonefish but there was constant drizzle and the sky was a thick grey.  We took off and fished a spot I like and my hopes were up as we had the perfect tide and it was out of the increasing 15 MPH wind.  Ha what do I know!  This spot...

The past few weeks have proven to be exciting times for fishing enthusiasts in South Florida. Despite windy weather and choppy seas our charter fishing has been outstandingly fruitful. Why? Because these conditions usually lure in the larger fish. It’s... The post Outstanding South Florida Charter Fishing Report! first appeared on Ft Lauderdale Fi...

The last week and a half have been a bit tough on the water due to unusually high winds in the 20-25 MPH range and huge tides.  The bulk of what I was booked for was just catching fish so we did just that but we had to pick our spots due to the wind.  The tides were almost well over two feet above normal due to the king tide plus an hard east wind...

The past week or so the weather has changed. We have had hard NE winds which pushed the mullet through Biscayne Bay. I got out with my son James on a cool morning and had for the fish to wake up. We found some Snook on a sea wall chasing mullet lucky we had NLBN lures rigged up. It didn’t take long and James was hooked up. It was a great fight but...
