Bimini Fishing Report – July 14, 2026
Bimini Fishing Report – July 14, 2026
July 3, 2026
Bimini continues to offer some of the most consistent blue-water fishing anywhere in the Bahamas. Clean Gulf Stream water and excellent bait concentrations have kept the offshore bite active. Wahoo: Early morning trolling continues to produce quality fish along the deeper drop-offs outside Bimini. High-speed lures and wire presentations have been effective. Sailfish: Sailfish are showing throughout the offshore grounds, especially around bait schools. Live bait presentations continue to outperform artificial offerings when conditions allow. Mahi: Weed lines, floating pallets, trees, and other offshore debris are holding good numbers of mahi. School fish are plentiful, with larger bulls mixed in around the better floating structure. Blackfin Tuna: Tuna action remains steady during the early morning hours and around active bait schools. Live bait and vertical jigging continue to produce. Blue & White Marlin: Bimini remains one of the premier destinations for anglers looking for marlin. Boats putting in the time along the Gulf Stream edge continue to raise fish, with the best opportunities coming during periods of clean blue water and strong current. The combination of blue water, abundant bait, and multiple pelagic species makes Bimini one of the most productive offshore fisheries in the region. Whether you're targeting a single species or looking for a true offshore mixed bag, conditions continue to favor anglers willing to stay on the move. Tight Lines & God Bless!

Captain Chase's Weekly Fishing Report Fresh from the Bridge... Where the Fish Are Biting. Bimini, Bahamas The summer fishing season has settled into an outstanding pattern around Bimini, with crystal-clear Gulf Stream water pushing close to the island and creating exceptional offshore fishing opportunities. Over the past week, anglers have enjoyed consistent action on Blue Marlin, Mahi-Mahi, Blackfin Tuna, Yellowfin Tuna, Kingfish, Yellowtail Snapper, and Mutton Snapper. Captain's Catch of the Week On June 22, Captain Chase Camacho and the crew of Chase N Dreams Yacht Charters successfully caught and released two Atlantic Blue Marlin off the waters of Bimini. Catching a single Blue Marlin is a memorable accomplishment—releasing two in one day is a testament to just how productive the Bimini fishery can be during the summer months. What's Biting • Blue Marlin – The offshore bite continues to improve, with July shaping up to be an excellent month for billfish. • Mahi-Mahi – Weed lines are producing steady action, with school fish and the occasional trophy bull. • Blackfin Tuna – Early mornings continue to provide excellent opportunities along the edge of the Gulf Stream. • Kingfish – Consistent action continues along the reefs, wrecks, and color changes. • Yellowtail & Mutton Snapper – Reef fishing remains productive with plenty of quality fish coming over the rail. Captain Chase's Outlook Clean blue water, healthy bait schools, and favorable Gulf Stream conditions continue to create outstanding fishing opportunities around Bimini. If these conditions hold, the coming weeks should produce excellent action for Blue Marlin, Mahi-Mahi, Tuna, Kingfish, and Snapper. Whether you're looking to release a trophy Blue Marlin, fill the fish box with fresh Mahi and Tuna, or experience one of the finest sportfishing destinations in the world, Bimini continues to deliver. Book your next adventure aboard our beautifully refit 61' Viking Luxury VIP Sportfish and experience world-class fishing with a crew dedicated to creating unforgettable days on the water.

The fish hit fast. They do not hook themselves. The predator fish are even faster and will bite your catch that you're reeling in and you won't even know it until you get it in

First timers should do bottom fishing for more success, and have patience. The Captain knows the best locations to find fish, but it's never guaranteed. We have fished twice now in Nassau and had much success both times!

Ask when booking about snorkeling with the sea turtles. They have the gear on the boat and put you RIGHT there. As someone who has never snorkeled before today, I can tell you it was one of the most surreal experiences I've had. Also, make sure you've got plenty of sunscreen. The sun will cook you!!

It is not a glamorous boat day, its a true fishing day with waiting, reeling in fish, sharks taking your fish, and reeling in fish you can eat and some you cannot eat. The entire experience is amazing if you love to fish!
