Fishing is still solid! We continue to enjoy the great Mahi-Mahi run. The majority of the fish have been schoolies ranging from 5 - 10 lbs with the occasional gaffer up to 35 lbs. While trolling for Dolphin some anglers have had the good fortune of raising elusive White Marlin and the occasional Blue Marlin. The fish for us have been mostly under weed lines between 300 and 800 feet. Closer to shore there have been good reports of King Mackerel and Blackfin Tuna up to 35 lbs. I have not been out to the reefs and wrecks as much as i would like, but i keep hearing that the Yellowtail Snapper bite has been excellent along with the Mutton Snappers and Amberjack.
