Labor Day 2010

Fort Lauderdale Sport Fishing Charters - Bahamas Fishing Report

We couldn’t have asked for better weather this Labor Day weekend fishing in the Bahamas. Earl just missed us and as soon as the weekend hit, seas were back to flat and the sun was shining bright; perfect weather for a crossing over to Bimini, Bahamas. On Saturday morning, we had a fishing and diving charter. We waited for an outgoing tide until 11 AM and then headed 11 miles to the north to catch Yellowtail Snappers, Mutton Snappers and maybe even some Red Groupers. Once we reached 70 ft of crystal clear water, I put a chum bag on the anchor and one on the surface at the back of the boat. It didn’t take long for about 200 Yellowtail’s to show up, it was incredible. And of course, along with the Yellowtail come the Trigger fish. We had 5 rods out and we were catching fish after fish. We stuck around for one 1 hour and left our little spot with 100 fish. On the way back to the dock we hit up a few lobster spots in 25 ft of water; we caught 30 Lobsters and called it a day. Fishing in the Bahamas is nearly endless. Call today for details about a trip of a lifetime.

Fort Lauderdale Sport Fishing Charters

August 29^th, 2010

Steve, Darrel, Bob and Harry came deep sea fishing in Fort Lauderdale for a second time aboard the Lady Pamela II today. Last time the gang came out fishing, we ended the day with a lot of fish; a Warsaw Grouper, Kingfish some Dolphin and a few Bonito fish, we needed the bite to be on today. We headed out Port Everglades and went searching for live bait to go along with our freshly cut bonito strips. After we got our bait situation covered, we began trolling to the south. We didn’t get a nibble until we were 5 miles south of the can. Kingfish and Bonito were biting our bait nicely. We caught enough Kingfish and Bonito fish to move onto wreck fishing. Our first drop produced a giant bite. The bluerunner bait got eaten at 190 ft down and shortly after the big fish released itself. Our second drop we spiced things up with a live speedo bait. BAM, a bite! Darrel fought a big Horse Eye Jack all the way to the boat in our ultimate fighting chair.

Fishing in Fort Lauderdale was phenomenal today. A long time customer of the Lady Pamela, Kelly, brought along his buddy Andrew from Canada and a few other friends to go deep sea fishing with Captain Paul and myself. First pit stop, the can for some live bait. Bait fishing was tough so we moved on to trolling; it wasn’t long before we had six or seven Bonito fish and a Barracuda. Out of nowhere, the right rigger got plucked by a Sailfish. As I was reeling in my high line, Captain Paul hooked Sailfish #2 and within seconds I had Sailfish #3 on the end of my line. Tripleheader Sailfish bite mid August, I love it!!! While Andrew was fighting his Sailfish, he backlashed the reel. Captain Paul locked it up as I was backing down and we caught all three Sailfish. Andrew, you couldn’t have asked for a better day of fishing in Fort Lauderdale!

Kelly, see ya next time!
