Member since February 2015 Pompano Beach, United States

Background: I am a native of south Florida and an Army veteran. I Grew up fishing in south Florida with my father and grand father. I grew up near the water so fishing after school was a daily event. I have been making my living fishing for the past 15 years and before that as a marine mechanic. I love taking people fishing, whether beginner or old salt I have a blast.
Techniques: Flying live baits from a kite or trolling ballyhoo and artificial lures are the primary techniques I employ. I do like to drop a shark bait while drifting and catching monster fish. Bottom fishing for grouper and snapper is a great way to put some filets on the grill.

Sailfish

Dec 10, 2022 Pompano Beach

Sailfish are showing up in good numbers. We will start catching them through early may. Lots of kingfish as well. A few Mahi still around and the tunas are making their presence known.

Sailfish season is in

Dec 4, 2021 Pompano Beach

The Sailfish are here and we are catching them. All last week we were having multiple shots at sailfish. I prefer to tag and release these fish to fight again another day. Some people like to kill them and eat them. I have eaten them and can tell you they are not that good. I would rather eat a hot dog. Mixed in with the sailfish are wahoo, tuna, dolphin and kingfish. If you can, Book a 6hr trip for a better shot at catching a trophy

Dolphin / Mahi Mahi

Aug 6, 2021 Pompano Beach

summertime brings calm seas and plenty of dolphin /mahi. weediness form up in the Gulf Stream and the baitfish follow the weeds and then the dolphin follow the bait. book a 5 hour trip and have plenty of time to cash in on the summertime fishing.

Half Day Trip – Deep Sea Afternoon

Started off right on time and had wet lines in 15 minutes. Captain Tom introduced my friend to kite fishing which is awesome in itself. Unfortunately the fish just weren’t biting. That is until 15 minutes before the end of the charter. We hooked a pretty good sized sailfish, somewhere in the 7-8 foot range. We stayed out until we had him next to the boat. Took some pics. Tagged him. And released him. Excellent day.
