Fishing Fort Lauderdale on Happy Day Today with Capt. Zsak

Steve Meek and David Johnson, co-founders of Fulcrum Group from Keller, TX, and associates were in Fort Lauderdale FL attending the VentureTech Network convention and decided to do some deep sea sport fishing in Fort Lauderdale aboard the Happy Day Today along with the Topshotfishing team. We had winds out of the east at 7 mph and indigo blue waters on the 2nd reef with 1-2 ft seas.

Fifteen minutes after leaving the dock, lines were in the water at the sea buoy in Fort Lauderdale FL in 120 ft. water. We started trolling, and our first strike came very quickly, with a 15 lb. Black Fin Tuna, followed by a mixture of Bonitos and more Tunas. With close to 15 fish in the boat, it was time to put the kite up and see if we could get lucky and catch a Sailfish.

We put two kites out, two live Goggle Eyes from each kite, waiting for the black predator to appear. Right Short!!! – Dorsal and bill out of the water as this aggressive Sailfish ferociously charged the bait, attacking and eating it in a blink of an eye. Off he went, as he jumped out of the water and tail-walked with the sun reflecting on his neon colors!!! Steve was the angler on this Sailfish, and he showed us his angling abilities by bringing in the Sailfish in a short amount of time. This Sailfish measured 90" - pictures were taken and the Sailfish was released to fight again.

With smiles on all 6 anglers' faces, it was time to head back to the dock at Bahia Mar 801 Seabreeze Blvd. Fort Lauderdale 33316.
