Fishing Reports by Capt. Dean Panos

Miami - Haulover to Fowey Light - 10/13/02 What an incredible week of swordfishing. Our first night out was Tuesday evening. Weather was OK- not great, but bearable with seas around 3 –5 ft. That didn’t matter much as we caught 3 out 4 swordfish. All our fish were around 1 more...

Miami - Haulover to Fowey Light - 10/07/02 Fishing was a bit slow during last week, but improved greatly over the weekend. The kingfish were solid from the Miami Sea Bouy and northward. Most of the kingfish were on the small size, but some 20 pounders were caught. The bo more...

Miami - Haulover to Fowey Light - 9/16/02 Offshore fishing in Miami is heating up. Somebody forgot to tell the sailfish that it was September. Fishing on a half day last week, and fishing on the edge between the Miami Sea Buoy and Key Biscayne, we caught 2 out 3 sailfish one day more...

Miami - Haulover to Fowey Light - 08/19/02 Autumn fishing doldrums – Everyone has heard it, but that is the exact opposite of what is going on. The fishing on the reef has been very good, with lots of sailfish, wahoo, dolphin, bonitas, and a few kingfish. On Saturday we fish the more...

Miami - Haulover to Fowey Light - 08/14/02 Well, if it’s action your looking for, the edge has plenty. Lucky for the bonitas that they are not good table fare. I guess that factor has really made them thick on the reef. Bonitas, in their own right, are great fighting fish. A more...

Miami - Haulover to Fowey Light - 07/29/02 The two types of fishing that get me going during the summer are swordfishing and trips to the Bahamas. During the past week, we got to experience both of them and the outcome was good. The latter part of last week, I had two swordfish more...

Miami - Haulover to Fowey Light - 7/15/02 Fishing for dolphin has been a little bit on the tough side. Lack of debris offshore has made finding dolphin more difficult. Even if you find debris, that does not guarantee dolphin. Most of the dolphin have been under birds. Sailfi more...
