After the freeze, several boats got out to fish and good catches of King Mackerel are still being caught. One boat had several big Kings, with a couple around 40 pounds. The cold front seemed to push them further offshore. The False Albacore are st

Nice wahoo caught deep water trolling in Ft Lauderdale. March is here!  The best season of the year is upon us and the fish are starting to bite.  Fishing has improved dramatically over the past 2 weeks.  March, April

The weather has been super nice the last few days here in Islamorada. We had some windy weather late last week but by Saturday afternoon conditions got beautiful. A lot of boats are venturing offshore and I would say the mahi bite has been decent ov

I fished on Wednesday and caught some King Mackerel and False Albacore. Most bites came on a Blue/White Sea Witch with Menhaden strips and a couple on a Gold or Green Drone Spoon.   The fleet also caught King Mackerel, and some nice size

After another week of wind, on Tuesday several boats were finally able to get out. The fleet caught some nice Blackfin tuna. There were also several catches of gaffer sized Mahi-mahi or dolphin as they say locally. The picture is from Hatteras Harb

July was one of the nicest weather months we have seen in a long time here in the Florida Keys. Most days were light winds with sunshine and there was only a few days with wind and thunderstorms. Overall the mahi bite was very good for the month. Su

We have our first "real" cold front coming through tonight with a low of 57 degrees! This big weather change should definitely spark up the fishing too. Fishing has been good the past week although the weather was less than favorable the las

July flew by here in Islamorada this year. It's been a very good season overall on mahi especially compared to 2016. We had a few slow days last week but this week was pretty steady each day. Sure there were a few boats that just had a handful o

We've had some up and down fishing here in Islamorada Florida Keys the past week. A week ago it seemed like the mahi were going to be thick for the upcoming days but sure enough they were hit and miss. A few boats did ok with anywhere from 10 -

The Frequent Flyer may be the perfect small lure. The weighted (2oz.) cupped head shakes and pops like crazy leaving an impressive smoke trail while it also helps hold the bait in the water even in rough seas. The Frequent Flyer is made with "fi

August is wrapping up and it has been a good one. The offshore bite has been hit or miss, but the Wahoo have started moving into the area. On one of the trips we caught a nice 46 pound Wahoo and a 23 pound one after gutted. A few Blackfin Tuna and D

We fished the 170 line today between Bad Bottoms and the Tower. The morning bite was decent. We caught most of the King Mackerel before 10 AM. The largest King was 35-40 pounds and hit a silver Drone Spoon, as well as the Blackfin Tuna. Most bites ca

August fishing is almost over here in Islamorada Florida Keys. We had some wind for a few days over a week ago but the past week was much nicer. A few days were cloudy with passing rain storms but it didn't stop the fleet from catching a bunch o

We've had some incredible catches of mahi the first couple weeks of August! The crowds are thinning out so the next month or two may be the time you want to come down and fish at Bud n' Mary's Marina. Most of the boats have been averagin

I had the opportunity to fish with Eye Catcher Lures again today on the nice 40' Luhrs named Bill Clough Ford. We caught a Wahoo high speed trolling today. Once we set out our slow spread we picked up a few more Wahoo, for a total of 4 out of 7

Huge wahoo caught on a sportfishing charter. Great catch Linda! February is here and that means the wahoo bite is on.  February is a top month for wahoo fishing in Fort Lauderdale.  We catch wahoo in one of 2 ways, either by t

We ran out close to 280 Rocks before we set out the lines and headed North. From the inlet to around 50 fathoms we were in 44 degree water. The break was the hardest one I have ever fished. It was 50 degrees in the green and 70 in the blue and you

We've had some gorgeous weather here the last few days while deep sea fishing in Islamorada. Winds have been 5 - 10 knots with calm seas. We had a few passing showers but overall really nice. The majority of the charter boats have been on the hu

I didn't realize it had been 2 weeks since my last fishing report but it's our "busy" season here and everyone has been fishing long days so the time has been flying by. The past week the mahi bite has been good overall. There was a

On Thursday (9/22/2016) we started the day North of Monitor Buoy. I had got all the lines in the water and had just set out the first teaser when a Sail started swiping at the teaser. Starboard short goes off, almost immediately Port long goes off,
