Fort Lauderdale, Florida - Saltwater Fishing Report
Ft. Lauderdale
Andy Lightfoot and crew from Ohio caught their first 2 Swordfish on a great night out. The fish were going crazy on our live baits.
Dave Hill of Chicago came down pre-superbowl and caught his first Sailfish. He noticed the rod was bent and sticking that way so he grabbed it and pulled back and a Sailfish started greyhounding on the surface.
Also from Chicago, Chris Zirrith caught and released a beautiful 200 pound Silky Shark that ate a small Bar Jack we butterfly rigged and sent to the bottom in 300 feet.
Mark Salvatore and crew got on Dolphin (Mahi-Mahi) all Tuesday morning. We also did a Swordfishing trip that evening. The weather was a bit rough so we came in early without the bite.
We will be out for the next few nights Swordfishing so I hope to be reporting on some nice fishing. Have a nice day!
