January 2003--The Sailfish Are Here!
 

2nd. The Sailfish are here!!!

We started the week with Marcy and Jason from Idaho catching 2 nice sailfish, a 96” and an 85”. Then, on an afternoon trip, we had Miss Samantha Perez (10) from Claremont, Florida on board and she caught her first sailfish (88”). Congratulations and great job Samantha!!!

Next on board were Jeff Kopaska and Craig Gilmore and they both landed nice sailfish. Jeff landed an 83” fish and Craig landed an 86” fish. They both had a great time catching their fish, taking pictures and then releasing the fish to fight again another day. Way to go guys and thanks for the email and pictures!

Late in the week we had Mike, Diann and Jeff from Indianapolis on board and they landed several dolphin fish. Then, over the weekend, we had Jerry, Joel, Neal and Greg from New Jersey and Philadelphia on board and I have to say they caught the most unusual fish, a lizardfish! Our last customers for the week were, Eugene, Scott and John from Denver, Chicago and Virginia and they landed a mutton snapper, Spanish mackerel and bonita. Thanks for a great week of fishing everyone!



12th-18th. We caught some of everything.

Another great week of fishing. We were out every day again, and we caught some nice fish. Early in the week we had Shannon and Tom, who were on their honeymoon, on board and caught bonitos, then we had Greg and his party aboard and caught a really nice golden amberjack and had the pleasure of watching the boat next to us fight a big spinner shark. What a sight! It's great to see the spinner sharks around, and they should be around until the end of September.

Mid week we had Mike and party on board and had a great day catching bonitas. We dropped on a wreck and caught another great golden amberjack and to top off the day we landed a 44” cow dolphin fish. We also had Ron and his family on board midweek and were able to land some more bonitas, a couple of 10-pound kings and a big barracuda. Over the weekend we had Robert and John and party on the boat and just had a great day of fishing. We kite fished with live baits on the reef and caught some bonitas, king fish, a couple of 8 to 10 pound dolphin fish, a blackfin tuna and two really nice sailfish.

Saturday we had John and his party on board, and had another good day of fishing. We landed bonitas again, 2 huge barracudas and another sailfish. Then Sunday, Manuel and party were onboard and we caught a nice barracuda and another sailfish. What a week! Life is good and fishing is GREAT! Come on down and join the fun!!!


21st - 27th. Bonitas and Kings were biting!

This was the week of bonitos and kings with some snappers, a 30 pound wahoo, a 12 pound wahoo, a 54” cow dolphin fish, some smaller dolphin fish, and a sailfish caught later in the week. We were out every day this week and had some great customers on board. Joe and his party caught a nice amberjack and Arvid loaded up on snappers. Late in the week we had Mike, Rick and their sons fishing with us, and we landed them a sailfish and had a chance at a nice dusky shark, but he broke off right at the boat. Mike and his son had such a great time fishing with us that they decided to go again the next day, and we caught a really nice barracuda. We also had Brady and his party on the boat and caught some kings and a couple of barracudas. Here's a picture of some of those catches.
