Close to shore this past week we caught Sailfish everyday. We also got into the Cobia with Chad and his wife as they had a double header, getting them both into the boat. The larger one was over 40 pounds and the other one was just a little smaller but over the legal sixe of 33 inches. In my opinion the meat on a Cobia is hands down some of the best I have tasted off the grill. They also got into a nice school of Dolphin.

Were getting into alot of schools of Dolphin now as they are showing up closer to shore. Ballyhoo have been the trick for us. On Friday James Nicholas and John Mcnichol caught about 15 Dolphin as we ran into one school after the other. They all were inbetween the 5-10 lb. range. Some days the bigger fish come through and other days we get more numbers of the smaller fish.

Blackfin Tuna are here and so are the large Kingfish if you can wait patiently. Sometimes you can get them on with the first bait in the water.

Well we are pretty busy right now so if I can show you a good time give me a call so I can get you out as soon as possible.

The Swordfishing is still hot. One of the boats pulled in a Swordfish weighing over 400 pounds over the weekend.
