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.
