Fresh Fort Lauderdale Fishing Reports

The past few days out there have been non stop action on the mahi. Light tackle and live bait was the ticket woth some trolling in between spots. Even a wahoo might show up!

Despite tough conditions (rain, wind, rough seas, and screaming current), we managed to get the job done! While trolling, we caught several Bonita, Blackfin Tuna, a Spanish Mackerel, a nice Baracuda, and an Atlantic Sailfish! Shortly after releasing the Sailfish, our charter guests wanted to try for something even bigger. So we set up near a wreck and put out the big baits. About 40 minutes later, the tip rod bent over, and we started doing battle. After another 30 minutes or so, we landed a big Sandbar Shark. Our guests were thrilled! Sometimes bad weather can make for amazing fishing!

We crushed it today! Caught a few king mackerel, mahi, spanish mackerel, bonita, and a giant baracuda trolling. Our client wanted to go shark fishing so we put out some big baits and ended up catching a huge Scalloped Hammerhead!
