Fort Lauderdale - Saltwater Fishing Report

The Dolphin are here!

The Easterly winds have brought the blue water in along with some weedlines. Quite a few Dolphin have been caught with most of the fish being in the 5 to 15 lb. range. There was also a couple of fish in the 40 lb range weighed in this week.

The Sharks and Amberjacks on the wrecks have been biting real good. Bull Sharks, Blacktips and Hammerheads have been the most active. The average size being 6' to 7' and 175 lbs to 275 lbs.

Sailfishing has also been good with these winds and clear water conditions. Tuesday had most boats with 2 to 4 sails for the day.

Tarpon & Snook are being caught around the 17 th St. bridge and jetties.

We look forward to seeing the fishing improving even more over the next two months.

Catch-em-up,

Capt. Kunta
