Fort Lauderdale - Saltwater Fishing Report
Ft Lauderdale fishing
Strong north current. Pretty Gulfstream blue water in 140 -160 feet of water. The home run formula for a successful Ft Lauderdale fishing charter? You bet. Four nice Sailfish releases this afternoon for the boys and girls of Champ Sports. We also caught a full grown 250# Hammerhead Shark on a deep line baited with freshly caught Bonito fished with sharks in mind. All these fish were released in very good condition due to circle hooks on the Sailfish and a single "J" hook on the Hammerhead Shark. We make every attempt to end each encounter with these great fish on a positive note that helps( in our small way) in a healthy and growing game fish stock for our Ft Lauderdale deep sea fishing charter customers.
National Marine Fisheries has just implemented a new Federal law requiring any "natural fish" used as bait for "shark fishing" have a single hook only. It works just fine and our /your (future) Hammerhead Shark swam off little the worse for wear after the release. Mother Nature has a front moving in tomorrow so the fishing very well might change. Some rain in the works. The fish don't care, they're already wet. LOL
The Marlin My Darlin is a 46' Hatteras that is comfortable, clean, fully air conditioned and rigged for ALL types of fishing in our area.
The captains, Rick Brady and Steve Souther excel in entertaining ALL levels of fishing experience from the first time novice to the experienced angler.
Located on Fort Lauderdale beach, our dock is just minutes from the fishing grounds so your time is spent fishing, not traveling.
