Hooking Up Anglers Since 2011.
We've had some of the nicest weather you could ask for lately. The seas have been very calm and the sun has been out the last few days. The dolphin bite hasn't picked up like everyone has been hoping for, but there's been a few around. A couple boats scored big on some of their recent trips, but overall I would say the boats putting in a full day dolphin fishing have been averaging 2 - 10 fish, with a couple boats having trips with 20 - 30 fish. Everyone still thinks it will turn on any day and everyone will find big schools of fish, but it just hasn't happened yet. We've seen fish of all sizes being caught, anywhere from 3 - 38 lbs, but it just hasn't been the numbers in the years past.
There has been other action to be had offshore, including blackfin tuna, amberjack, almaco jack, grouper, snapper, and tilefish. Boats have been trolling and jigging the tuna, and the other bottom species have been caught while deep dropping.
Way offshore I made it out on a couple daytime swordfish trips, catching 2 fish yesterday, but none a few days before that. With the nice weather the next few days I imagine we'll see a few broadbills caught.
Back on the reef the yellowtail snapper bite has been good. There's also been a few mutton snapper in the mix. The grouper bite has definitely slowed down, as we are well past opening month, but there's still been a couple caught the past week. There has also been some vermillion snapper and triggerfish caught.
Give the marina office a call at 305 664 2461 to book your next Islamorada fishing charter and let one of our boats show you a good time on the water!
