Fishing Report – 05-29-13

Today was FITRD – Fishing In The Rain Day. The winds were blowing and it was raining but Chad, Bob and Brady braved the elements in their quest for a keeper Snook. Fishing was tough today, the usual spots just weren’t offering up the bigger fish. We had a few nice big fish hooked up around the bridges however they all made short work of the line and were not coming to say hello. We picked away at the Snook throughout the day never really finding a good concentration anywhere. Bob did finally land a slot size Snook near the end of the day (we didn’t even get a photo of it !). I believe the total for the day was 12 Snook and one Cubera Snapper landed. Nothing earth shattering but a decent day considering the nasty conditions and uncooperative fish.

Fishing Report – 05-27-13

Paul was in Miami with the wife for their anniversary and wanted to fish even though the winds were blowing 20 mph +.  We figured a night time trip may be best seeing that it was Memorial day weekend, this way we missed the craziness that happens on the water in Miami on holidays. Tarpon was the target species. The big fish were not inside tonight, only the smaller fish. However even a small Tarpon is still a pretty decent challenge to get them off the bridge and landed. Paul did well for this first time bridge fishing Tarpon. He had 5 fish hooked up and two landed. Best part of all is that we weren’t annoyed by a single jetski.

Fishing Report – 05-24-13

Rich and Denise were in town from New Jersey. Last few times Rich has been in town the weather has been really bad and pretty much unfishable. This time earlier in the week the weather was miserable however by the end of the week we got an awesome day. Must be Denise that was the good weather charm. The morning started off with us in Tarpon for quite a while. They were studs however not wanting to eat the fly or crabs. After giving them the good old college try we headed off shore. Not long after stopping the fish started to show. First the small Bonitos and Blue Runners, then a Dolphin, then Rainbow Runners and then the big Albies. Rich and Denise managed to catch at least one of each of those species. See if you notice what is not quite right in the first photo (hint …. Look closely at the fly rod in Denise’s hand, she’s not holding two rods, only one).

Fishing Report – 05-18-13

Harris & Bill joined me for some fly only action. Harris started off with two medium sized jacks on the inside. As soon as Bill got on the rod the action stopped. We headed outside and found a large school of Jacks in the ocean, however they just weren’t in a good mood. The clouds came over and the wind started to blow. We headed offshore. Saw a few small Blackfin Tuna come up on the chum but no takers. Eventually after much rough water we found the Bonitos and both Harris and Bill caught a few before it was time to head in. Not a ton of fish caught today but considering the conditions Harris & Bill did good. Sorry Bill, I didn’t have any pictures of your fish on my camera.

Fishing Report – 05-11-13

Anton & Douglas were on board today to see what we could catch. The winds were forecasted to blow early so we had a small window to get out into the ocean . Fortunately we were able to take full advantage of the nice conditions while they lasted. Douglas landed two nice Kingfish, a shark and Spanish Mackerel. Anton, who only a few months ago turned 7, hooked and landed all by himself his Kingfish along with Spanish Mackerel. These two guys are pretty fish crazy, good to see kids who love the sport. Nice going guys.
