Fort Lauderdale Fishing
We left the dock this morning with a mixed group from New York, Wisconsin, and the Dakotas for our weekly Thursday dolphin trip. Clear, sunny skies, temperature in the eighties, and calm seas of 1-2 feet added up to another great day of Ft. Lauderdale fishing. Artificial lures, ballyhoo, and fresh-cut bonito strips were used on the troll and down on the wrecks to catch fish during the course of the trip, at depths of 100 to 350 feet. It was a nice assortment at the end of the day- 22 mahi-mahi, 7 red porgy, 3 vermillion snapper, 9 triggerfish, spanish mackerel, king mackerel, and bonito. Great weather, great fishing!
