On Thursday, Tim, his wife and their 5 year old son joined the Lady Pamela fishing fleet for some deep sea action offshore. Trolling gear was in the water once we cleared the Inlet and the fish weren’t hiding. 5-10 lb Kingfish were hitin’ the deck left and right for a good two mile stretch. As soon as we reached our limit on King Mackerel, the kites suspended live goggle eyes and we hoped for a Sailfish bite. Within minutes of live bait kite fishing, I noticed a big bite. “Right long, Right long!” Captain Paul grabbed the rod and set the hook for Tim’s fight. Tim and his son reeled in a hefty 25 lb Kingfish together. The fish was bigger than their son, it was awesome.

This afternoon, Bill, Jason, Dan and their boys joined a shared charter to catch some fish. They came to the perfect place at the perfect time; Sailfish Season in Fort Lauderdale aboard the Lady Pamela II! On the way out we stopped at Lauderdale Marina to purchase live goggle eyes to dangle from the kites. Once we cleared Port Everglades, we trolled for about an hour and not one bite. We decided it was time to change things up and try some live bait kite fishing. As soon as we spiced things up and relocated to 180 ft of water off the Steeple we landed a 16 lb Mahi, three other smaller Dolphin and two Silky Sharks. Wham, bam, thank you mam and the fishing died off. We reeled everything in and ran 5 miles to the south to see what we could get out anglers in to at the buoy. Not even 10 minutes later and Captain Paul yelled “Big Sailfish!” as it started jumping within feet of the boat. Jason had the first Sail on the hook and landed it.

Another 10 minutes after Jason’s fight we hooked #2 on the right long outrigger. Bill got into the fighting chair and it was man against fish.

Then shortly after we were 2 for 2, Don got a Sailfish on a double header. Don’s fish jumped and hit the side of the Lady Pamela II, talk about excitement. It was one of the most awesome four hours of fishing in Fort Lauderdale.

This afternoon, Jessica, the owner of John Casablanca Modeling, joined her friends from Sweden aboard the Lady Pamela for some deep sea sport fishing offshore. Jessica’s dream was to land a big game fish so live goggle eyes were a must on the way out. We started off trolling catching Bonito fish left and right before we preformed live bait kite fishing. We popped the kites in 180 ft of water at the whistle buoy and crossed our fingers for bite. Within 20 minutes of fishing and not catching I noticed a free jumper to the north. We picked up, ran to the action and within minutes Captain Paul hooked a double header. Jessica was stoked. She jumped in the fighting chair as John went on the bow of the boat, ready to reel. After an exciting 45 minute battle between both fish, we were successful and several high fives were given on the way in.
