Fort Lauderdale - Saltwater Fishing Report

This time of year is considered are slow time of year but that doesn't mean that fishing itself is slow, I personally think this time of year has some of the best mani fishing throughout the year, the only dilemma is the weather is not the greatest.
Anyways fishing on the reef has been very productive with great catches of king mackerel, blacken tuna, and bonito as well as some great barracuda. live bait fishing will be key for sailfish as soon as the first few cold fronts come threw.
Night fishing for snapper this time of year is excellent. This time of year some of the shallow wrecks are great choices for night fishing for snapper, there are plenty of yellowtail, mangrove and mutton snappers around. The wrecks tend to produce bigger fish than the reefs.
here are some recent photos of some great catches on the YB Normal.... more later
