Fort Lauderdale - Saltwater Fishing Report

Fishing report

Late December has been a mixed bag. Kingfish and Bonita have provided steady action on the reef while with each approaching cold front a strong sailfish bite is ushered in. The sailfish season has started off great and will only continue to better over the next four months. Sailfish tournaments are in abundance and are a great way to get in on some thrilling fishing action. The mahi mahi have also been showing up in good numbers in close with most being of the five pound range with a few bruisers mixed in. Last week we boated a double header with one going 40 lbs and the other one 25 lbs. The sharks have been starting their annual migration south with plenty of black tips, hammerheads, and bullsharks around. As you can see it's a great time of year to get out fishing so give us a call and book your own fun filled sportfishing adventure.
