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!

Fishing is hot right now on the Central Florida coast! We are seeing waves of Pompano migrating through with the schools of Mackerel and Bluefish. The seaweed has subsided for the most part, this is the best it's been all year for surf fishing. Find yourself some clean water, a good sandbar and you'll be on your way for some quality fishing.
My go-to lure for Bluefish and Mackerel and Big Jacks in the surf. 1oz Gunslinger Jig by Beach Bum Lures.
Pompano Rig - Pompano Rich "Pompano Catchers" Surfari Series- Color coordinate your floats to the water conditions.

    Spent a half day out with Captain Kenneth! Had an amazing day fishing for black drum, mango snapper, tarpon, and snook. He did an awesome job running the boat and keeping everyone going and hooking the big ones! The questionable weather in Florida didn’t stop us from having a good time. Thank you for the great day!

trip description for Surf Fishing - 3 Hours in Melbourne Beach

These trips start out on the sand and surf at first light. One of the best parts of the area is the serenity of watching a beautiful sunrise over the Atlantic. Generally this is when the best fishing will start becoming active as the water starts to warm up and fish cruise the beaches taking advantage of the visibility. During your sunrise adventure Rio will cover everything from what baits work best, how to cast from the surf and most importantly how to locate fish! Beyond equipping you with the basics, Rio will teach you new techniques and will also educate you on why they work. Rio will always do everything he can to ensure you have a successful day but, please be mindful you are indeed Fishing and conditions will vary day to day. Rio will not tell you what you want to hear like some other guides just to take your money. He works very hard so you can enjoy your leisure time. Read More

Whether you're an offshore angler looking to add some species to your collection, or a vacationer looking for a great experience on the deep blue, this trip is perfect for you! Captain Gil is an expert when it comes to deepwater bottomfishing and "deep dropping" and will make sure you get hooked up on some cool species, including Snowy Grouper and Tilefish. Both of these fish are famously delicious, and can only be caught in ultra-deep offshore water. One of the many great things about fishing in Fort Pierce, FL is that you can access this deep water just a short distance from the harbor! With the banks so close to shore and the rich waters of the Gulf Stream behind you, you'll spend more time fishing and less time getting out there. Once you're over the prime fishing grounds, you'll be dropping cut bait down to the ocean floor, where it will attract bites from cruising bottomfish. Once they're on, it's all you! You'll haul them up to the surface, where Captain Gil has iceboxes waiting to keep them fresh till you get back to the dock. You'll be fishing aboard Gil's 40' sportfisher, a beautiful boat designed to be a fishing machine. She features all kinds of gear and amenities, including a flybridge, full cabin, live wells for bait, ice boxes, and more! With this gear and Captain Gil's expertise, you'll be set up for an amazing day and a full cooler when you're finished. Read More
