Just last week, Joe and his son decided to try their luck offshore on a deep sea fishing trip aboard the Lady Pamela II. Joe had been sport fishing in Fort Lauderdale before and was hoping the Mahi were biting this time around. We headed out of Port Everglades this afternoon and as soon as we hit 100 ft of water, the King Mackerel were bustin bait on the troll. The Mahi and Blackfin Tuna were active in 300 – 600 ft of water. We checked eating fish off the list and went searching for something bigger. Captain Paul rigged up three monster deep baits, one for the middle and one for the bottom. Within minutes of getting settled in, a Sailfish jumped out of the water looking to play. I gunned the boat ahead without even worrying about our deep baits and Captain Paul grabbed a spinner rod with a live bait. As soon as Captain Paul pitched the bait to the flopper, he set the hook and it was on. The Sailfish then began its series of jumps and air born cartwheels for our anglers. Joe and his son fought the Sailfish to the boat; we took some pictures and then released him back into the blue for a future fight. After a few high fives, we presented our big baits again and waited, but not for long. The bottom bait got hit immediately. Joe's son reeled in a 7 ft Hammerhead Game Shark. What a great fishing trip in Fort Lauderdale; fresh fish for dinner, a Sailfish catch and release and a Hammerhead Shark bigger than anyone on board.

Jeff and his family joined the Lady Pamela II for a first ever deep sea fishing trip in Fort Lauderdale. They had never been fishing before and chose the Lady Pamela II fleet to make it a memorable, fun experience. We headed out the Inlet and the Bluerunners weren't hiding. After we spent some time with the light spinning rods, we headed south with trolling gear in the water. The King Mackerel fish showed up for a bit before we headed to a shipwreck. Our first pass by the wreck produced two 25 lb Jacks Crevalles which is rare for the far offshore. Our second pass by the wreck interested two Barracuda fish. We carefully showed them the teeth and they were amazed.
We had a great time fishing with you guys today!
