Background
We're very passionate about catching fish and have a reputation for working hard. We fish for a living year round. Besides charters, we also catch fish to sell and also catch bait so that always helps to know where the fish are! Following these fish on a daily basis helps to know their patterns and helps to produce more fish per trip. The more we catch the better we look so we're always trying our hardest and working the whole time to produce a bite. We a Tournament team and we have a list of ranking and winnings under our belt.
Techniques
On charters we always try to sent you home with some dinner. However if you have a preferred method of fishing please let us know prior as our methods change seasonal based on what we feel gives us the best chance to catch the most fish

Some Local friends/return clients called me up and said they wanted to go get some good eating fish for the super bowl. They mentioned that they have heard of a certain technique and asked if we could give it a try. So after Trolling around for some fresh bait.. Deep Dropping it was for this group of guys who more than anything wanted to spend their afternoon enjoying some drinks and food while watching the electric reel bring up Some BlackBelly Rosies a few fish at a time for dinner. Then all of a sudden on one drop the Rod bent over and the reel was at a stand still. The motor was running but the drag had the reel at a dead stop not gaining any line.. After a few seconds we slowly sarting gaining line, with hard thrashing head shakes on the rod the whole way up. Then from 30 ft below the surface we saw the golden color still rising with bubbles tracking behind. It was our Target species, Golden Tilefish!! High fives all around as we head in for some sunset pics..
Trophy Sailfish!!

Last weekend was an action packed fishimg charter rfor Mike and his family from CT. All he wanted was sailfish and sailfish he got, hooking 4 of these beautiful creatures and fighting 3 of them all the way to the boat. They came as 2 double headers and the whole family was in in the action. Within the first few seconds of the fish hitting they jumped all over the place almost tangling other lines but our team work went along way to keep all other lines cleared. By the time we got the other lines in we almost got spooled! One of the double headers both fish went opposite directions witch made the challenge that much better! The biggest landed fish of the day is going up on the wall as a trophy replica mount! Come get in on the Sailfish action on our Pompano Beach Fishing charters!
