Beschreibung des Ausflugs

As we enter mid week we will once again see the present winds that are out of the Northeast become Easterly in direction and then back off by Thursday as we see the arrival of the latest frontal system. This is a very weak system. The wind will remain very manageable and we expect to see more Sailfish and Mahi action on our fishing charters in Fort Lauderdale. The chances of rain remain very low right up to Sunday morning when it is forecast @ 30 percent chance of a shower, which is still a pretty slim chance that we will be needing the rain gear. Good weather all around to get offshore and chase some fish. The action has once again become erratic but there are good fish to be had. There is bait in the area and the baitfish are again back to biting well as the moon that slowed them down is in the rear view mirror now. There is a slight north current on the reefs and also this current continues in the deeper water as well. Reasonable colored water has been up on the reefs and out until an edge in 350 today where the water turned slightly bluer with that current continuing to flow to the very lightly north. The Sails seem to prefer water just off the edge of the reefs and we have not seen them inside chasing Ballyhoo since our last report. Inside of 200 feet of water but short of the reefs is a good choice for not only the Sails but also the occasional Mahi and King. Some Blackfin Tuna around too and all these species are responding better to live baits although we did have a couple of cracks at Sails and Mahi-Mahi trolling dead baits out in that 200 foot depth on one charter. That was a fun afternoon as the entire charter was spent pulling various assorted teasers in various combinations and at various staggered distances behind the boat. And all those teasers belonged to our charter ( Nick) as teasers and lures are his business up to the Northeast in New England and this was the first look at them here ( a suitcase full) in our water conditions here in the South. Good fun and good conversation, and the fish came into the pattern several times. Nick sent us a photo we snapped of him with one of his Mahi-Mahi and then followed it up a second photo with a snow shovel in the exact same position as the Mahi had been the afternoon before, that 2nd photo taken in New Hampshire in his driveway the next morning. You'll see those two photos along with a couple of more of our recent anglers published with this report. See you on the edge. Rick, Matt, TKS and JJ aboard the Marlin my Darlin.

Fort Lauderdale Charter Fishing Report –
Fort Lauderdale Charter Fishing Report –
Dezember 20, 2023
As the festive season unfurls, so have our fishing lines! December in Fort Lauderdale has offered us a cocktail of weather patterns, but anglers aboard our renowned vessels – 'Marlin, My Darlin’ both 46 and 53 feet of pristine charter prowess – have reaped the benefits of a teeming Atlantic. Here's the lowdown on what's been leaping from the waters. **Sailfish Season in Swing:** December's dip in mercury traditionally heralds a spike in sailfish activity a trend that has held true. Thanks to cooler climes, these acrobatic fighters have been a consistent thrill, providing many anglers with the rush of a lifetime. Our captains have employed kite fishing with a master's touch, luring sailfish to the surface and into the hands of exuberant anglers. Incidentally, this method has also tempted imposing trophy sharks, with hammerheads, tigers, and makos making appearances that have sent reels screaming and pulses racing. **Mahi-mahi Mania:** Offshore pursuits have been fruitful for those targeting mahi-mahi. Most have returned successful, hoisting fish within the 3 to 7-pound bracket, although there have been tales of larger specimens. These vibrant battlers have been prowling waters from 400 to 1000 feet, where they've struck baits with the tenacity for which they're celebrated. **Tuna and Wahoo Whispers:** Blackfin tunas have graced us with their presence, albeit playing hard to get. Intermixed in the catch, wahoo has been the occasional delight – their searing speed and razor bite adding a layer of excitement to any fishing narrative. **Reef Fishing Rundown:** While the reef scene has been sluggish at times, especially for trolling enthusiasts, the perseverance of our crews has paid dividends. Wahoo have made periodic dashes across our spreads, while small tunas and respectable king mackerel have kept the action steady. **Wreck Fishing Rewards:** For those who've fancied their chances closer to the seabed, the shipwrecks have served up a mixed bag. Large snappers still lurk in the shadows, joined by formidable amberjacks and the visually delightful vermilion snappers. It's been a case of 'drop and reel' for those hitting these honey holes. **Looking Ahead:** With Mother Nature promising a stretch of sterling weather, and the holiday spirit embracing Fort Lauderdale, there couldn't be a more divine time for a family fishing charter. Whether you're a local or planning a yuletide vacation, the silver lining is clear – December's waters are bustling with life, and 'Marlin My Darlin’ charters are at the ready to create memories that will sparkle long after the holiday lights dim. Book your adventure and let's cast lines into the bright horizon of fishing festivities!

Outstanding South Florida Charter Fishin
Outstanding South Florida Charter Fishin
Oktober 25, 2023
The past few weeks have proven to be exciting times for fishing enthusiasts in South Florida. Despite windy weather and choppy seas, our charter fishing has been outstandingly fruitful. Why? Because these conditions usually lure in the larger fish. It's been a red-hot period for Sailfish enthusiasts who have found a productive bite along the reef ranging from 80 to 200 feet. Kite fishing is unmistakably our preferred method for tackling these challenging species, yielding impressive results. Those angling for Sailfish can also expect a good bycatch of mahi-mahi and blackfin tuna. Interestingly, our waters have also been frequented by a few large trophy sharks, namely robust bull sharks and elusive hammerheads. These unexpected visitors up the thrill factor, reinforcing that we're in the thick of trophy season. On the flip side, offshore mahi-mahi fishing has been slow, with most catches being reported along the reef through either live bait or trolling methods. Blackfin tuna has been showing up more regularly in the late afternoons, with catches typically weighing between 3 to 10 pounds. This bounty has ensured that our charter guests have plenty of opportunities to battle with larger game fish. All in all, this season's fishing report beams with excitement and promises even more action as we plunge further into the trophy season. Grab your gear and join us in the hunt for the 'Big One’!
