Here is what our customers are reeling in the last two weeks. It is a mixed bag of action, and we have been sending anglers home with bags of fillets every charter! There have been some sailfish cruising the ledge from Palm Beach, to Jupiter, up to St. Lucie inlet. When these fish are present you will see the occasional free jumper. A sign of good things to come if your baits are out in the area. Trolling and drifting live bait are working for the sails. The kingfish have been thick and will gladly eat a live or dead bait. These kings have been abundant in the 90-115 depth range. The sound the reel makes when a smoker nails a bait is always exciting. We have had some scattered Dolphin action as well. Some days they have been thick, then the next they are no where to be found. That's why it is fishing, everyday has been a little different with what we are catching. Bottom fishing has been consistently producing Mutton, Yellowtail, Vermillion, and Mangrove Snappers. Whatever your fishing needs are let me know. We can get you hooked up. Good fishing is here to stay and will only improve with the mullet run. If your interested in fishing call 561-214-2271. We have a few open dates in September. See you on the water.
