On Saturday, we fished with 7-year-old Jake of Ft. Lauderdale. We ran out of Hillsboro Inlet with some live pilchards and started fishing in 150'. We only managed a single skipjack after a hour so we decided to go further offshore. We found some floating debris 950' off Hillsboro and caught 2 more skipjacks, 2 small wahoo (released), and caught a few mahi. Turned out to be a really nice day on the water. {%image_id=35569%} On Sunday afternoon, we fished with Jessica and Chad. They requested to catch mahi so we added offshore again. On our way out, in 800', we spotted some skipjack activity, made a few casts with jigs and caught 3 skipjacks. Afterwards, we continued further offshore and made it to the Steeple in 950' and again we found a big log. We caught a few bar jacks and a few mahi that our guests kept for dinner. {%image_id=35570%} Capt. Mario Cote No Vacansea Sportfishing www.novacansea.com 954-632-9340
