The bite will be pure outrageous once it hits 78 degrees. Right after Ian it dropped to 78 and bite was insane and fish were concentrated. Temps are still up at 80 degrees at the moment and there are fish there… but you have to cover quite a few miles

Went out offshore this morning, clients hooked into 3 King Macks quick, then a pod of Dolphins moved in on us. Kings went down. and when the kings go down like that you’re wasting your time to stick around so we bumped it offshore. Hooked into a good size Mahi, had another ~20 pounder bust off. Then things went cold. So we picked it up and motored back to one of my favorite spots where we picked up a Bonito, 2 Baracuda, a 4-5ft Silky Shark, and to top it all off two lunker Black Fin Tuna! First was right under 20lbs and the second was pushing 30lbs if not over. Absolute studs. As far as an outlook goes, with this wind picking up and Tropical noise pushing up our way, we’ll be inland bass fishing for the next couple days. But given the bite today and recently, once the swells die down out there next week, I’ve got a feeling it’s going to be on Like Crazy!

    Captain Billy put us on the snook and we caught 4 and got a number of strikes. Only one of the snook was within the keeper range. Also landed a 10+ lb jack which was really fun to handle. Great trip.
