Fishing has been good but the high winds have kept us mostly inshore. Inshore the sea trout, spanish mackerel and snapper bite has been good. When we've been able to get off shore kingfish and bonitas have kept us busy. The sailfish are here and the bite will continue to improve as we get more cold fronts coming through.

The sailfish are starting to bite, great king Fish, action and wahoo bite before, and after the full moon with the cooler weather, the reef fishing has been great as well cooler temperatures bringing these fish to the shallow reefs, as far as the Peacockbass, we are averaging over 40 fish per trip in the southern Everglades the bite is on fire, And the Inshore fishing in the Florida Keys has been great catching snow, tarpon, trout, redfish, and tons of jack gravel, mainly on the outgoing tide or the incoming tide, trying to catch some movement to produce a bite.

We've had an excellent Kingfish bite on the reef with some sailfish also snapping well when we are able to head off shore on longer trips. We are able to find mahi-mahi wahoo and a few blackfin tuna mixed in looking for offshore paligics Please book a three-quarter day.

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!
