Tarpon hooked by James Kang on NLBN “SHEESH'“! The fishing is very dependable right now. I’m finding small Tarpon and lots of Snook to start my mornings. There’s an active Tarpon bite for the first couple hours and then we have to work them once the sun comes up. The Snook bite is all day for the most part some days better than others. This past 1...

OFFSHORE- Dolphin reports picked back up a bit this week. Fort the most part: The best dolphin reports came in 1000-1500' of water with the fish mainly being in small packs around birds and floating debris. No well defined weedlines instead it's a luck of the draw (or a well trained eye on the radar). Trolling small ballyhoo squid and bonita strips...

Smooth summertime seas give us the opportunity to run to …

The first week of July was off to a hot start. The first week I was fishing with repeat client Ron and we fished in Biscayne Bay and Everglades National Park.  Ron had never fished the Everglades before and after we did so on day two he wanted to come back every day after that.  Admittedly the fishing was not on fire but we caught fish and Ron had...

The second half of June had some tough conditions that kept me at home and rescheduling trips thanks to 7 days of constant rain we had move across the area.  But I was able to sneak in a few trips and the first one was with Bob armed with a fly rod.  I took Bob to an area out of the wind and we were able to find some schools of bonefish moving t...

Hello fellow anglers The last couple of weeks have truly felt like summer in full swing with hot temperatures and late afternoon thunderstorms gracing us daily. Such conditions often bring favorable opportunities for fishing and this summer has been no... The post June 27 2024 Fort Lauderdale Charter Fishing Report first appeared on Ft Lauderdale...

OFFSHORE- Great looking forecast headed into the weekend. Despite really nice weather this week reports have been a touch slim (My guess is A LOT of people are getting ready for a run to the other side headed into the 4th next week). A few scattered dolphin reports out deep. Blackfin Tuna including some good sized ones seemed to pop back up in litt...

This is the 3rd week of June 2024. The rain we had for the last 2 weeks has the Snook bite on fire. This happens every June we get tons of water pushing out to Fl. Bay and the Snook love it. They are also in the backcountry when it is blowing 15-20mph or more it’s a good back up plan. The fish are on the edges and points so you just have to go fis...

OFFSHORE- A funky weather/windy week has kept reports down again. Dolphin fishing should be good headed into the weekend; with southeast weekends hopefully helping to push the dolphin in a little closer. No depth reports to speak of this week on the dolphin but look for the better catches to likely come outside of 500' of water. The usual assortmen...

Hello anglers! This week’s Fort Lauderdale fishing charter report brings encouraging news about our thriving South Florida fishery. Over the past couple of weeks we’ve experienced fantastic fishing conditions resulting in large and impressive catches. Here are the highlights: –...

This is a short report due to the weather we've been having.  I was scheduled to fish with Ron Monday through Friday but we rescheduled due to constant and severe rain the whole week and my Saturday trip was rescheduled as well du to rain.  But Father's Day was better and I was able to get Jake and Tom out for a 6 hour trip.  The weather was  thre...

OFFSHORE- No reports to speak of this week with the weather. It does look like we will start drying out headed into the weekend and the ocean forecast is looking pretty good. Before the weather went south dolphin fishing remained good in 800-1000' of water (With scattered dolphin reports in shallower as well). Trolling smaller baits (strips squid s...

There are a few things going on going on that’s sends me into the back country. The first one is the pea green water in Fl. Bay the second is there has been a great bite in Whitewater Bay. and then a S.W. wind. Pea green water out front sometimes turns into no fish. The backcountry has had a solid bite of Snook Trout Goliaths and a few small Tarpo...

Big thanks to everyone who’s fished with me the past few weeks!! The Snook bite has been SOLID!Night time incoming tides have been most productive finding fish all over the bridges flare hawks and big […] The post Fort Lauderdale Inshore Fishing Report Early June 24″ appeared first on Flat Bottom Charters.

Dang if there was a way to start off the month of June this would be it.  It's been hot but that has been a side note in light of the awesome fishing we had so far this week.  I began the week with Amy her son Henry and this friend Daniel out of Key Biscayne.  They were great to fish with and armed with shrimp on jigs they started off hot with Dan...

OFFSHORE- Dolphin fishing has really picked back up this week; with both some decent numbers and decent size fish as well around. Reports have been a bit all over the place again as well; with good reports coming in from 250-300' and outside of 1000' as well (Check the pics below of Steve with some good dolphin caught in 850' this week). Small ball...

What a way to end the month but it was not all good news at first.  My Saturday charter was with regular local client Barry and we were fishing out of Key Biscayne on Memorial Day weekend.  Not good.  But he was there for a few nights and couldn't drive south so the plan was to meet him there and well that's when things went sideways.  With HUGE a...

OFFSHORE- Following a bit of a slower Memorial Day weekend offshore fishing has started to improve again. Dolphin reports have come in from a wide variety of depth ranges this week; with fish being caught everywhere from 70-1000' of water. Sounds like the more consistent fishing on the dolphin was out a little deeper. Steve on "Into The Mystic" sen...

Well folks I have to admit November weather has been highly disappointing. As I've mentioned before November weather is usually absolutely perfect but so far this month it's been pretty tough with high winds cloud cover and all around difficult conditions. In spite of the tough conditions fishing remains pretty solid and most of my fishing has con...
