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.

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. We’re also still picking away at some quality red and black grouper here and there. If you’re 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.

    On a slow day when it seemed no one was catching fish, Jorge worked hard and got us several hookups, including an outstanding sailfish that we'd never had boated without his expert boat jockying. I've fished with a lot of guide's, and he's among the best.

    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!

    Capt TJ is the bomb. He put us on fish constantly and we limited out on mahi (good size). We had 4 rods+ blowing up consistently and first Mate Bill kept everyone organized. Best Father’s Day ever ! Capt TJ we will be back for sure.

    Had a great time out on the water with capt jorge. The boat was kept nice and clean. Jorge worked his socks off getting the rods baited and out. We caught a few good fish too so all in all it was a good day

    I would highly recommend fishing with George. He is super knowledgeable about the area fishing and he kept me busy catching fish. George is also just a cool dude who was fun to be around during and after fishing. His yacht club cooked up our fish after George cleaned them. It was great! We brought 5 fish in and put at least that many back in the water.
