What a great start to the 2018 New Year! Cold Fronts have been bringing West winds and calm seas, so we have been able to make it 1 to 2 miles offshore to catch sailfish, mahi mahi, wahoo, bonito, and barracuda.

Tarpon have been tough to find but they could start showing if the water temps rise a little. We have been trolling or casting lures for the jacks and bluefish and using the live bait for snook and tarpon. Here are some recent notable catches:
