OFFSHORE- Dolphin reports sound good this week; with a solid number of fish being caught in 800-1000' of water. Trolling small ballyhoo bonita strips and squid remains a very good way to go for the dolphin. Look for the dolphin to be on well formed weed lines around floating debris and on well defined current rips and color changes. Most of the dol...

OFFSHORE- Tough fishing continued offshore this week. Inside of 300' the water remains dirty with very little current. A few scattered dolphin out deep this week; with reports seeming to bounce from 800-1000' of water. The usual smaller trolling baits are the way to go for the dolphin; with bonita strips and squid being solid choices. Most of the d...

OFFSHORE- The new moon wahoo bite has been good this week with some good numbers around. The wahoo have been biting along the 120' ledge early in the mornin g and then sliding out to 250-400' of water as the sun gets up higher in the sky. A sea-witch and bonita strip behind the planer is a great way to go for the wahoo. The Nomad DTX minnow is also...

With the closing out of August we bid farewell to summer in Miami.  While it will still be warm during the first week or two of September I can't complain about August as it has been a solid month of great fishing.  We wrapped up the last half of August on a high note.  My first trip of the second half of the month had us losing a big permit early...

OFFSHORE- Fishing offshore was a bit slow this week; though it has been showing signs of improvement as the week goes on. Dolphin fishing has been good with some good catches coming in 200-300' of water and also outside of 1000' of water. The dolphin have been largely found around floating debris and along well formed current rips. Smaller baits (S...

OFFSHORE- Reports have been a bit slim this week. Those making it offshore have found a decent number of dolphin around. 600-800' of water seems to be a pretty good range for the dolphin. Trolling small ballyhoo bonita strips and squid has been the best bet for the dolphin. Wahoo action slowed way down; but still a handful of them around. Kingfish...

This week has been an exceptional one for fishing in Fort Lauderdale with some of the best catches we’ve seen in recent memory. The reef trolling has been especially rewarding yielding impressive numbers of Bonita Kingfish Wahoo and Blackfin Tuna as well as a few Sailfish. Anglers have been thrilled with the constant action and […] The post Fort L...

Man oh man August has been on fire for the first two weeks.  First it's been a bit breezy making the dog days of August anything but.  It has actually been rather comfortable on the water (for August) making for some nice days.  More importantly the fishing has been on fire.  While most of my charters have been for bonefish and permit quite a few...

OFFSHORE- Wahoo fishing has remained good this week on the backside of the full moon. Trolling Nomad DTX Minnows in the 165 and 200 size has worked well for the wahoo in 130-300' of water. Hot Pink Mackerel Pink Lava and Wahooligan have all been great lure color choices for the DTX Minnows. Trolling planers with a sea-witch and bonita strip combo a...

July was my busiest month of the year; the great part is most species were eating. The first 2 weeks the big Snook were on fire. There were Redfish Trout and a few Tarpon on every trip. The fishing has been incredible. It’s hot and buggy but that’s when the fishing in the Everglades is good! If you're interested in any of the fishing I’ve describe...

The fishing scene in South Florida has been nothing short of phenomenal over the past 2 to 3 weeks.

Well well this was a solid way to wrap up July and kick off my birthday at the end of the month.  I had a good mix of pot luck fishing and species specific charters during these last two weeks.  The first bunch of trips were catch whatever is fun and we did.  It was a mixed bag with a few trips being very productive while a couple were a bit slow...

OFFSHORE- Dolphin fishing remained pretty good this week with some solid reports coming in from 600-1000' of water. The usual trolling spread of smaller baits (Strips Squid ballyhoo) continues to produce the dolphin. Overall most of the fish are in the 3-10lb range so the smaller baits are just getting more bites. Decent amount of east wind in the...
