Dolphin start showing up again

This past week the dolphin made a surprise attack along the east coast. With not many people fishing the past couple of weeks we have had it pretty much to our selfs. The fish have been on floaters and small areas of grass. They have been nice size and biting live bait. We found our limit both days this weekend and several days last week. We are getting a couple of larger fish each day to on hawks. On the edge there have been some kings, I personnally have not fished there myself but have heard the party boats talking about it. No mention of sailfish or any other action except bonitos on the edge. Fishing the bottom last week one day we did come up with a nice catch of snapper and grouper. We had a black grouper of 30 pounds caught on 12 pound test and 3 muttons in the 10 to 15 pound range on 12 pound test as well. The conditions were right so we gave it a chance and it paid off. This week I expect fishing to be good and the weather should be to great.

We have some days available if you want to go just call and we will hook up. 305-361-9740
