South Florida fishermen continue to enjoy pretty steady fishing action. November marks the start of sailfish season and so far we haven't been disappointed. Some days are better than others depending on water quality and currents but on most days it is a pretty safe bet that you will get a shot or two at these spindlebeaks. Fish should continue to push through with every passing cold front.

One of the perks that come with sailfishing is that dolphin (mahi-mahi) love to eat the baits intended for sailfish. Most of the dolphin are schoolies but there are enough larger fish to provide the element of surprise. On days when the bite is further offshore you might also run into a nice wahoo like the one pictured below.

Inshore kingfish and mackerel are also putting smiles on angler's faces. Just like sailfish these fish should become much more concentrated with each passing cold front. The spanish mackerel also provide and excellent target on days when it is too rough to venture offshore. Anglers that enjoy catching fish on artificial baits can also capitalize on these aggressive macks.

Further offshore many anglers are still catching mighty broadbill swordfish whenever the weather permits. Lately the daytime fishery has exploded and things are happening very quickly. Catches are getting more and more bizarre. I just heard that Reelroports' own Capt. Dean Panos recently released an estimated 350# blue marlin just weeks after catching a 510# swordfish. What's next???

The action is only expected to get better and better so if you're ready to head out or just have some questions give me a call or shoot me an email.
