South Florida Fishing Report Offshore action has been steady, with mahi fishing producing decent results in depths ranging from 900 to 1,500 feet of water.

South Florida Fishing Report Offshore action has been steady, with mahi fishing producing decent results in depths ranging from 900 to 1,500 feet of water. Anglers are finding success around broken debris and floating seaweed lines, where schools of mahi have been holding. Both artificial lures and live baits have been effective, giving fishermen plenty of opportunities throughout the day. On the reef, the snapper bite has really started to heat up. Yellowtail snapper have been the primary target, with solid catches of mangrove snapper and mutton snapper as well. Weβre also still picking away at some quality red and black grouper here and there. If youβre looking for consistent action and a variety of species, this is one of the best times of the year to get out on the water. The reef is alive with activity, and the offshore mahi bite continues to provide exciting opportunities for anglers of all experience levels.
The bottom bite has been on fire with mutton snapper black grouper and some nice gags. We also caught lots of Blacfin tuna limiting out a couple days with some fish in the 20 pound range and one over 30 pounds. The sailfish showed up today.

A terrific experience all around. Even though we didnβt catch many fish! As the crew said, thatβs why they call it fishing and not catching! Still, we had a wonderful time and a lot of fun.
Fantastic trip! It was our first time fishing anything but lakes and rivers. Alek was a great captain to take us out for this! He filleted all the fish we caught which we thought we were gonna have to find somewhere to process them to take back home with us.
Thanks Alek! We will definitely book with you again!
Bryan was awesome. He put us on multiple species of fish. We had a blast. His knowledge of the area was great and he knew how to manage the water which was nice cause the water was rough.
Charles was such a great guide. He did everything to make our day as special as he could. I would highly recommend a trip with Charles and I'll be back for sure.
We did the cast and blast trip and were able to check a couple things off the list. One of the guys in our group was really wanting to catch a snakehead and got it done, and I was able to knock a peacock bass off my bucket list as well.
We also got some good iguanas during the hunting portion of the trip. The equipment provided was top notch, especially the guns, and everything was handled with a strong focus on safety. For someone new to this type of trip, thereβs definitely an opportunity to experience a little bit of everything.
Jose is a great captain, he was very professional and got us on fish and iguanas very quick, it was a great experience. If you want to go fishing or iguana hunting Jose is your guy
It was a decent trip. The captain experience charged a $165 additional service fee which was a bit egregious and the trip was cut short by 30 min. So I paid $1,665 for 4.5 hours. It was fun but definitely not worth the money.
