Fort Lauderdale Drift Fishing & Sport Fishing Report
July 14th, 2010
Today Captain Paul and Mike had a banner July fishing day. During their morning trip, the fish were snapping on the troll anywhere from 100 – 230 ft of water. With just a light SE wind and a rippin north current they caught 7 King Mackerel, 7 Bonito fish, 3 Blackfin Tuna and a summertime Sailfish.

Drift Fishing in Fort Lauderdale, Florida
Today we had 11 anglers aboard the Lady Pamela III for our All Day Dolphin Thursday fishing trip. At 8 AM sharp, we left the dock and headed offshore with our trolling gear ready to go. We trolled for hours in anywhere from 90 – 150 ft of water using planners and sea witches, catching loads of Mahi – Mahi, King Mackerel, Bonito fish and nice football size Blackfin Tuna. Right around noon, we threw a 20 lb Wahoo in the box after an angler won a sweaty battle. On the way home we made a few pit stops at the local shipwrecks and caught two smaller size Barracudas, about 20" long.

Today was a great day on the water; my best friend Matt filled in and fished with me aboard the Lady Pamela II. We go way back, from fishing in the New River here in Downtown Fort Lauderdale when we were little guys. Matt is a Miami Fire Fighter who tries to fill in fishing as much as he can. We had a few young kids on the boat today so I decided to head out Port Everglades, get them familiar with the tackle, and catch some bait at the same time. With our baitfish in the well, we trolled to the south where fishing was very slow. The current was MIA and so were the fish, besides for one straggler King Mackerel. We made a move 18 miles away and with a big bonito bait we dropped it down in 50 ft of water and got the bite immediately. Jeff jumped into the fighting chair with no hesitation and put his game face on. He won the fight against a monster Barracuda.
The Lady Pamela III had a great afternoon trip. Repeat customers of ours, Dustin and Patrick went home very happy as always. They caught a 60lb Tarpon and a big Barracuda while fishing in Fort Lauderdale.
Tight Lines!
