Cooler Weather in South Florida has the Fishing Red Hot!

Capt. Alan Sherman
February 14, 2014
Miami - Saltwater Fishing Report

It's been a very busy few past few weeks for me, my clients, family and my business "Get Em" Sportfishing Charters. Two weeks ago I took possession of my third 22' Pathfinder Tournament Edition bay boat. Also called the "GET EM"! My last Pathfinders treated my clients great and caught them lots of fish along with lots of special moments. I expect my new Pathfinder to do the same! This Pathfinder like my last two is equipped with the badest outboard engine on the market. A 2014 Yamaha 4 Stroke 250 hp SHO. Top end is right about 60 miles per hour but cruises at a nice 35 miles per hour and allows me to burn just 3.5 gallons of gas per hour. The new boat has a slightly different hull configuration that has a much better ride in a chop and a whole new deck lay out. This boat is equipped with a Humminbird 1199ci side imaging depth recorder/GPS, Minn Kota 12 foot Talon and a Minn Kota 112 lbs of thrust 36 volt trolling motor. The boat has three deep cycle Deka AGM 12 volt batteries and a 12 volt Deka 27 series starting battery. Alongside of the batteries is a Stealth charging system that allows my Yamaha outboard engine to top off my trolling motor batteries after it has fully charged the starting battery. My new boat sits on top of my last Continental trailer that is still going strong. Since I have taken possession of the new "Get Em" my clients are already catching quality fish and new memories of a great day on the water on the "Get Em".

Since my last report the fishing here in Biscayne Bay, offshore of Miami and in Flamingo has picked up and we are making some outstanding catches in all areas.

North Biscayne Bay has produced a few small to medium size snook during day trips along with sea trout, jacks and small barracudas.

South Biscayne Bay an area that I like to fish this time of year has finally started to produce some of the best catches; on recent charters my clients have had hot action from bluefish, Spanish mackerel, large ladyfish and large sea trout. At times the fish were jumping on Hookup lures tipped with a Gulp bait, Rapala Twitchin Raps and live baits fished under a Cajun Thunder float. On a recent group charter sponsored by Office Depot my three clients in four hours had 8 different species and a total of 42 fish all caught on KEY LARGO rods, Daiwa Lexa spinning reels and an assortment of baits and Mustad Ultra Point hooks.
