Saturday, April 3, 2010 at 09:23PM The fishing has been pretty good the past week. It's been a mixed bag including cobia, amberjacks, almaco jacks, kingfish, yellowtail snapper, as well as mangrove snapper.
Sunday, March 28, 2010 at 02:48PM We had Steve May and his son Tommy out for a nice day of fishing this Saturday. Bait was still tough on the reef so we headed offshore and found a few schoolie dolphin on the way to the hump. We then managed to catch half a dozen Blackfin Tuna to 17 lbs as well as a couple of amberjack to 55 lbs. The weather was great and the fishing is getting better and better each day.

Saturday, March 20, 2010 at 08:44PM The water temperatures are still well below normal but there's still some fish around. We had Andrea and Bob from Ft. Lauderdale out on a 1/2 day trip today and Andrea caught a 52 lb amberjack first thing in the morning. After that we caught a couple of schoolie dolphin before anchoring up and catching some porgys for dinner.

Tuesday, February 9, 2010 at 09:56PM We had Don and Jim out yesterday afternoon and then this morning, both on 1/2 day trips. Fishing was pretty good both days. Monday afternoon we caught and released 20 cobia's and kept a couple for dinner. The biggest was 22 lbs. This morning we sailfished for a little while without any bites so we decided to anchor down on the reef for a couple hours and had non stop action. We caught a couple of yellowtail snappers for dinner, half a dozen cero mackerel, let go some black groupers, too many blue runners to count, and then at the end Don hooked a big king mackerel, and 20 minutes later boated a 26 lber!
