Today was a two boat trip with a buddy of mine and I had Jay and his two girls with me Anna and Mary. This was a really fun trip. The girls could fish really well and Jay was an absolute pleasure to fish with. We basically just fished to keep the ro

The wind has been blowing but we press on.  It was blowing 20-25 MPH today when Peter jumped in the boat and off we went for 6 hours of hiding from the wind and getting him some fish.  We started off tarpon fishing but the only spot we cou

Jim and his wife are from Wyoming a state I am eager to visit.  This trip was his new wifes gift to Jim as they were on their honeymoon. Long story short these were great people and we had a great time with Jim catching a few bonefish on his fi

I have to tell you this job keeps me on my toes.  Yesterday it was bonefish and permit and today I had repeat client Dave with his boys to target sharks.  With bait in hand we were ready to go and I took them to a spot that usually has 40-

John fished with me last year and wanted to catch his first permit but bonefish as a back up we caught bonefish.  Today the mission remained the same and under perfect conditions feeling more like fall each day we found a ton of permit.  B

I had Fax on board today and he brought his friend along oh and his fly rod too.  He kept mixing it up between fly and spin but I have to admit something odd happened today.  For some bizzare reason the bones today much preferred flies to

I was out of Key Biscayne today and had Tom on board to bend rods.  We did just that catching a number of species but focusing on sharks where they kept him busy.   Capt. Mo Estevez http://www.miamibonefishing.com/ 786-853-1409 Follow

This was a weird week.  I had Thursday off in order to have the boat get some much needed service but Tuesday through Friday were pretty odd with fishing really tough to nail down a pattern.  So Tuesday Joe and I fly fished for bonefish an

Carl and his brother Gus are hard core fishermen from Sweden.  Gus' name really isn't Gus but in spite of my numerous attempts to pronounce his name properly I just couldn't make it happen so they mercifully asked me to call him Gus

The first time Ralph fished with me earlier this year we didn't catch bonefish on fly but caught a nice shark instead.  Today he brought his son Alex and the goal was to get him on his first bonefish on fly while Ralph would fish spin gear.

Fax and I had moved our last trip to today because of significant wind but today was looking only slightly better.  Anyway we hit the water and I was apprehensive as to the state of the fishing after four days with Mike.  Ha it started slo

Look I'm a fishing guide and we are know to stretch the truth at times or a lot but this report is no exaggeration.  Chris fished with me last year and he brought his son Brian this year for four days of fishing.  The goal was for them

The Senior Gotcha is a grey-haired take on the classic gotcha pattern using Rainy’s new silver fox craft fur. This classic flats pattern works great for bonefish and permit if presented correctly. The pattern’s eyes can be substituted to

The last few days I've been booked for a wide variety of trips everything from bonefish on fly to just catching whatever is biting.  Fishing with local client Alec on Monday we focused on snook and sharks and it was generally slow with the

It's incredible to me how the inshore fishery in Biscayne Bay has changed.  In past January's I'd be cast netting bait and primarily fishing for mackerel bluefish mutton snappers grouper tarpon and other species with a high degree o

Boy oh boy did I get my wish.  Over the summer I wanted a nice cold winter well I got it!  We got a second cold front that dropped the air temperature into the high 30's to the point where one morning on my way to work we had frost on

I hadn't fished with Glenn in a while so I was really looking forward to fishing with him again today.  He was good with whatever we did so we started off fishing for snook.  It didn't take long for Glenn to get 5 snook in the boat
