Fort Lauderdale Charter Fishing w/Capt. Mike, Saltwater Fishing Report

Fort Lauderdale Fishing was great today for our anglers and guests. Adam, from Ft. Lauderdale, Rich from New York City, Tim from L.A., and Sandy from Fort Lauderdale joined us for what turned out to be a great day of fishing, despite some rainy weather.

I blasted through the wind and the waves and turned to the north as Brendan my deckhand deployed the trolling baits. There wasn’t a lot of chatter on the radio and reports were dismal at best.

We continued to pound the reef in search of a bite. The beer and the BS flowed and finally we got a nice bite on the planer rod. Tim jumped into action and fought the nice size king to the boat and we put it in the box and broke the ice so to say.

We continued to catch a couple more real nice kings and some smaller blackfin tunas. The guys wanted to try some bottom fishing so we messed around with some tilefish and called it a day. Great time guys, see ya soon.
