Nicest yellowfin I've ever gotten off of Miami Beach in 280 feet of water 1 mile south of Haulover cut literally just offshore trolling our regular spread he ate the left long ballyhoo on our 30 wide fish hit at 10:20 AM and we did not land this fish until almost 3 PM off of Port Everglades. It was a half-day 8 AM to noon. We didn't end up getting back to the dock till 4 PM with channel 7 news waiting for us that that's probably one of the nicest catches I've done off of Miami I do not count swordfish, Blue, Martin, wahoo, mahi, self Fish, etc.,

This September off the Islamorada hump we caught an estimate 200-250lb blue marlin on 20lb line He ate the short bait behind the boat and went ballistic! Right in front of the whole fleet fishing at the hump. Epic! We landed him in 45 minutes on a shimano TLD 25.

Had a blast on a couple of recent trips teaching and sharing the wonderful world of fishing with these amazing kids. It’s not just about bending rods—it’s about sharing knowledge on various species and techniques, so they leave with more than just fish; they leave with unforgettable memories and skills...

We had a wonderful fishing trip with Bryan. He was very knowledgeable and helped us immensely since we had little to no experience offshore fishing. We could feel that he cared about us catching a fish and that he was trying to fulfill. In the end, we caught 3 fish - 2 rainbow runners and 1 mutton snapper and lost 3 fish. We are super happy.

Captain Jorge was great. We unfortunately went out at a slow time of year and the fishing that day wasn't the best. We still managed to catch a few and Jorge worked hard to make sure we all got a fish. Also a knowledgeable and cool guy all around, would definitely go out again!
