Fort Lauderdale - Saltwater Fishing Report
March 4
Today we fished with Art, Justin and Jacob all from parts unknown.
We were looking for eating fish today so we started out Kite Fishing and landed 4 Mahia Mahia and one bonito. As we were kite fishing we dropped down a chicken rig 400 feet down and also landed a hand full of tilefish.
Guy thanks again it was a blast fishing with you.

Today we had a 2 boat charter aboard the Hooked Up and the Hooked Up 2 with Dan and Ken from Ohio, Chris, Bob and Joe from M.I., Dan and Dustin from I.L., and Dave, Loran and Jeff from Wisconsin.
Today was a no nonsense trip with all the guys putting money in the kitty for the biggest fish. (LOTS OF MONEY)
I would love nothing more than to say it was a red-hot day of fishing but today this was just not the case. Fishing was dead slow and with the 2 young bucks my son Luis on the Hooked Up 2 with his buddy Andrew and the older guys Paul and I aboard the Hooked Up.
We both did all we could and while Luis tried 3 different types of fishing Paul and I just stuck it out kite fishing for big or bust.
We ended up hitting a home run in the bottom of the ninth with Dan from Ohio landing a monster 88-inch sailfish along with a little help from Ken.
Guys thanks again to all of you I'd like to say it was fun but truth being told the $$$ put a bit of pressure on all of us.
Yes we did win but we won by 1 bite. And I've got to also say thanks that was the biggest tip I think we ever got!!!
Thanks again to all of our anglers today and Dan today was your day dude!

Today we fished with Kevin, Brad, Dan and Dexter all from Reese Michigan.
We did a little of just about every type of fishing we could. We started out trolling the reef and landed a bunch of small bonitos and 1 kingfish. Than we did some kite fishing with live baits suspended from the kites along with a couple of shark baits down deep with no bites at all.
Ok time for plan C. We went over a wreck and dropped a live bait down and BAM on our first drop we caught a nice Warsaw grouper and a couple of yellow eye snappers.
Guys sorry we never did hook into a sea monster but at least we caught some dinner.
Thanks again guys for fishing with us aboard the Hooked Up.

Today we another 2 boat charter and aboard the Hooked Up and the Hooked Up 2 Aboard the Hooked Up we had Kelly from Alabama, Paul from Copper City Florida, Lee from Westin Florida, David, Shusheng and Brandon from Pembroke Pines Florida.
I've got to take a second to say that aboard the Hooked Up 2 we thought we had this little fishing tournament won when we landed a big 89-inch sailfish on the Hooked Up 2. But Captain Greg came on strong at the end with Kelly landing a 54 inch Wahoo and Paul taking it all with a 99 inch sailfish. WOW now that's some good fishing.
Thanks again to all of our anglers today for fishing with us aboard the Hooked Up and the Hooked Up 2 off the coast of Fort Lauderdale.
As we got back to the dock we had our afternoon anglers eager to give their luck a shot off the coast of Fort Lauderdale aboard the Hooked Up.
As a matter a fact this is the second time in less than a week that Marlin More the Miami Dolphins wide receiver has fished with us. And today he brought along his close friend also a NFL player Julius.
A few days ago we had caught Marlin his first sailfish so it was going to be a hard act to follow.
But in true Hooked Up fashion we topped his other trip with 2 Mahia Mahia.
1 sailfish and a MONSTER HAMMER HEAD SHARK. Well we almost caught the hammerhead but he did some how manage to get free just behind the boat. It sure made our job easier than us trying to get the hooks out.
Marlin and Julius thanks again guys and best of luck playing this year.

WOW what a great day of fishing off the coast of Fort Lauderdale aboard the Hooked Up.
We fished with Tom Graham from Weston Florida along with Matt and Tom Salerno from Vienna Virginia.
We went right to kite fishing with 4 live baits suspended from the kites and just as we set the trap the fish started biting.
We ended up catching 2 sailfish, 2 bonitos, 1 kingfish, 1 Mahia Mahia and on a deep rod we landed a big amber jack.
Now that's some good fishing!!
Thanks again guys.

Girls what can I say but WOW lots of fun and thanks again.
