Fort Lauderdale, FL - Offshore

Wahoo, Kingfish & Bonitos! The Kings and Bonitos are still thick on the reefs. We have been catching our limit every trip, trolling planers with spoons and strips in 80 to 200’ of water. There have been a lot of Wahoo biting in with the Kings and Bonitos. Most of the fish have been small with an occasional 40 to 50 lb fish being caught. The wreck fishing has been good, a few Bull Sharks and a few Amberjacks. We did catch a couple of nice groupers last week on one of one wrecks. The Swordfishing is picking up with the fish averaging a 100 lbs. A few boats reported fish up to 200 lbs. We fished 2 nights and caught 2 out of 5 bites last week. We did catch a few Sailfish in the past week. We found the fish showering ballyhoo on the reefs. Overall, I would have to say the fishing is really good. The weather has been calm and not too many boats out. Tight Lines, Capt David Ide and the Lady Pamela II crew
