We had some wind come in yesterday afternoon/today which clouded up the shallow patch reefs and made for some good fishing today. Water temp has dropped off to 78 degrees and we are starting to see a lot of our winter migratory fish!

We have been fishing lots of wrecks, reefs. and inshore water. Jumbo size yellowtail have been pretty consistent on big love pilchards, along with the occasional African pompano and yellow Jack. Some decent size muttons have started to move into patches and mangrove snappers too.
On the windy days we fished inshore and caught tarpon, snook, Goliath grouper and some nice sized mangrove snapper too.

This past weekend we had one great weather window before a cold front started to push through. The tide early in the morning was perfect, and the moon was full. Our chances looked good. We high speed wahoo trolled for a couple hours, trolling over different wrecks in the area. We caught a 33 pound wahoo and a 24 pound kingfish before at the end of the falling tide. Successful morning, targeted species acquired

    Kevin was an amazing guide. He was very knowledgeable and provided easy step by step instruction instructions while fighting 2 - 5 foot lemon sharks in less than 1/2 hour before daylight faded. Both were unkooked boat side with great video and pictures. His boat is clean and organized making it safe and easy to move around the boat while battling a catch of a lifetime for 2 Wisconsinites. Thanks Kevin. See you soon.

    We had an amazing time iguana hunting! There were thunderstorms in the distance when we arrived, and I honestly thought the trip would be canceled—but our guides, Wesley and Matt, knew exactly what they were doing. We never got a single drop of rain and they spotted way more iguanas than we ever would have on our own. The only thing I’d do differently is bring my own flashlight. They had plenty to share, but not enough for everyone to have one at the same time. Highly recommend this adventure!
