Kite season is here! The water has cooled down as well as the air temp making ideal fishing conditions. Combine this with the prevalent East wind pushing debris and the Pelagic fish close to shore. The Sailfish have started to show up as well as the big smoker Kings. There have been random Dolphin close to shore with the occasional Blackfin Tuna in 200-350'. Bonita Tuna have been plentiful in shallow around 50'. The Cudas are everywhere out to 400' and we have been getting them deep on live baits. We are still getting Goliath Grouper bites although we haven't landed one in two weeks. We fought one for 2 and a half hours the other night only to get cut off on the shipwreck. Big Bull Sharks have been around, we released 4 last week up to 400 pounds. I love this time of year, it's not hot, it's not cold, the Pelagic fish are close to shore and next month the Swordfish bite is gonna get hot. Swordfish can be caught year round but the best time is October through February, I can't wait! We still have a couple openings for the rest of the week and weekend. Let's catch a Monster!

Fishing has been decent considering another summer of extremely warm waters Offshore Mahi have started to show up in decent numbers but most fish are smaller with a few decent fish here and there . Tuna has been consistent on the Humps , and deep dropping has been good when the sharks allow . Reef wreck The yellowtail night has been very good with several flags being boated just an about every trip we targeted them . Patch's reefs have produced great stacks of yellow Jack and cero mackerel an and decent mangrove snapper as well. The occasional African pompano has also been showing up on wrecks as well which is always a nice surprise All in all fishing continues to be relatively steady and we look forward to making more memories with our clients through the summer 🤙
