Hello everyone Capt. Vinnie here, this week I can honestly say fishing has been some what difficult and not the red hot action we normally would see, specially for this time of year. This week the deep sea fishing has been tough, the full moon this week has brought upon us some very heavy tides and the seaweed has been about as bad as it can be making it very difficult specially for the crew, endless work to keep the baits clean from the seaweed. For the report this week starting first offshore, there has been a few mahi mahi. There hasn't been much seaweed offshore it has been mostly on the reef, so most of the mahi we did catch were just random in the middle of no where, there also has been a few mahi on frigate birds. The mahi have been getting bigger and we are starting to see more keeper size fish, although I would imagine we are going to see a good push here shortly I would say in the next few weeks. Moving a little inshore blackfin tunas have been the main culprits. Live bait has been the best choice specially for the larger tunas and larger I mean close to 30lbs. Although live bait is going to be the best choice for the larger tunas, you can still catch them trolling. Smaller feathers and squid lure imitations have been the best choice and later in the afternoons are going to give you the best chance specially with the full moon going on right now. Moving further inshore there has been a decent showing on sailfish with the live baits too, all the tide we have been having is putting these fish on the move and a live bait being suspended from a kite is going to give that picture perfect presentation. Fishing shallow like around 75-90 feet gives you the most time fishing due to the current. With the current being so strong fishing just inside the tide is going to keep you on a slower drift giving you more opportunity to get a bite. Other then sailfish there has been a few nicer kingfish on the live bait too. Right now we are in a great time of year to target some big game sharks specially like hammerhead sharks. This time of year specially when we are kite fishing we tend to have a few hammerhead sharks try and eat our live baits, it is quite a great show. All sharks are catch and release but they do make a for a great fight specially if thats something your looking for. This week please be sure to check out some of the great photos of some recent catches that were caught while out on our deep sea fishing charters in Fort Lauderdale, also remember to give us a like and follow on social media platforms like Facebook and Instagram @Ybnormalsportfishing for daily fishing content. On the horizon, even though the fishing has been slower then normal this week its not going to be a consistent thing specially for this time of year, usually on the backside of the full moon fishing is historically better, so be on the look out in the next few reports for some great catches. For the rest of the month of May we have a good amount of availability so if your coming down to Fort Lauderdale and looking to do some deep sea fishing we would love to show you a great time on the water.. Capt. Vinnie
