12/29/10 - Still a little chilly, but fishable and fun!

Capt. Jim Willcox today catching over 150 redfish in some deeper channels way back in the everglades today, despite being record lows just a a couple nights ago!  He said trout fishing was not happening yet the couple spots he tried.  Capt. Rick Stanczyk, Capt. Ken Cohan, and Capt. Ed Cale had good fishing on the patch reefs, lots of porgies, snappers, few nice groupers and muttons, hogfish, and some nice cero mackerels!  Ken also caught a few pompanos, and Rick had a big bluefish!  Capt. Mike Bassett reported catching a couple smaller tarpon in one of the local Islamorada canals, all huddle up from the cold weather!  Capt. Nick Stanczyk aboard the BnM had 5 sailfish today!  Capt. Alex Adler aboard the Kalex had some nice king mackerels, and smaller cero's, as well as some bottom fish and a nice cuda caught by a young angler!  Looks like the weather will just be getting nicer and nice as we move in to the weekend, and hopefully hold up for next week!

Day after xmas, 12/26/10, offshore aboard BnM!


Capt. Nick Stanczyk aboard the BnM was able to get a half day in Islamorada Fishing before the real windy weather came towards Islamorada, Florida Keys on 12/26/10.  They caught a couple real nice afican pompanos off a popular dive wreck nearby up to 30 lbs!  Bottom fishing was good producing a 5 lb mutton, and a 10 lb black grouper.  They wanted some action and jumping so they decided to go Florida Keys Fishing for sailfish, here's a picture of a nice sail they caught!  They ended up catching 3 sails for the day, releasing all unharmed!  They also caught 3 kingfish on this Florida Fishing Charter.

Good offshore fishing

The Predator reported catching 3 sailfish a couple days ago, 30 yellowtails and 1 king over 30 lbs on the edge of the reef!  Wind was blowing a steady 15 mph out of the northeast, and it was still pretty cold!  The Miss Islamorada Fishing party boat with Capt. Ben Loy also had 75 yellowtails, 30 kingfish up to 15 lbs, and 1 sailfish, along with 3 mutton snappers!  Great day on the Florida Keys party boat!
