Trip Summary

Bottom Fishing Ft Lauderdale Today was another beautiful day off the coast of Fort Lauderdale clear blue water and a very comfortable 72 degrees makes for a great day of fishing. However we did have one little problem FULL MOON and fishing was slow. We started out trolling for Wahoo’s since we managed to catch a couple nice ones the other day but today we just could not seem to find them. Ok so than we set out to catch some small bonitos to use as live bait and fish some of the wrecks BUT they were not biting either RATS. If nothing is working try try again!! So we decided to think outside of the box and tried something new. We went out to around 700 feet out water and put a couple live baits out on the surface and sent down a 3-hook rig on an electric reel to the bottom. BINGO finally paid off with a couple XL Golden Tile fish. Talk about good eating it’s nick name is poor mans lobster and after cooking a piece in butter and garlic I see why DELICIOUS!! NO WAHOO NO MAHI NO PROBLEM (TILE FISH) Come fishing with us now while they are still in season. Captain Taco
