Just one boat headed to the Gulf Stream this morning. Fishing was a little slow with only a few Blackfin Tuna being caught.
Inshore fishing however, has been awesome, with all the Red Drum and Bluefish you wanted to catch.

It was a blow day for the big boats so they stayed tied to the docks. It was an excellent Red Drum day for the Inshore boats along with Bluefish. Red Drum like to bite on windy days and they make great fish tacos.

It was a pretty day on the water today and the fishing was really good. The big boats slung a lot of Blackfin Tuna onto the deck along with some Dolphin and King Mackerel. Release did release a Sailfish. The Inshore boats also had a pretty day on the water and took advantage of being able to go out to the ocean. They hooked up with some King Mackerel and Spanish Mackerel. When they got on the inside they had good catches of Red Drum, Sheepshead, Gray Trout, Bluefish and False Albacore.
The fishing is heating up and the days are beautiful. Book a trip out to the Gulf Stream or a half-day in the Sound. Come on in and sign up for a make-up trip out to the blue water for a fraction of the cost. You'll make new friends while you fill your freezer with some incredible fresh fish.
