FISHING CHARTERS FORT LAUDERDALE
Catching The Big One
Today Paul and I had Brad from Tamarac, and Chad and his family
from Aurora, Il.
We stared the trip out by catching a few live baits like speedos and hard tails so
if- we decided to go wreck fishing we had the right bait to produce fish.
As we trolled north from 90- 200 feet of water we caught some fish lots of bonita upto15 lbs. and a few kingfish up to 12 lbs. Brad and Chad wanted to try some different kinds of fishing so we went wreck fishing. Our first two spots we hit one in 245 feet and the other in 168 feet we had no action. So we ran a little further north to a wreck in 300' and the other in 200' we got some nice bites. Chads son was the first one up using a live speedo, Brads son landed a 60lb. Warsaw grouper. After seeing that Chads 14 year old son catch that, Brad said it's my turn so we made another drop. This time I could tell it was a different kind of fish so Brad had a little battle in front of him the whole time. Brad was fighting it and he was yelling and screaming, but him caught himself a nice amberjack about 60 lbs. We were already late getting back to the dock if we left right then. But I really wanted to catch Chad a fish, so I told Paul, let's try one last time. And it was worth it. As soon as the bait hit the bottom Chad was in the fighting chair battling with a big fish from the deep. Another big grouper. What a day,and a very lucky group that we had on the boat today and it made for a good trip.
