Key Biscayne - Saltwater Fishing Report

With the winds whipping yesterday and the grass as thick as I'v ever seen it on the edge fishing was tough. But we stuck with it and ended up with a nice day. We started kite fishing off triumph reef as we normally do, fighting the grass we hooked up with a nice black fin fought it to the boat before a huge bull shark took him. We set back up and within 5 minutes we were hooked up again. This time though our 16 vs with 20 was not enough, a huge yellow fin took a runner from the kite and was gone. With over half a spool gone the hook pulled. That hurt!!!
Next up we caught a sailfish and missed 2 out of a triple. Finally we caught the target species Black fin, about 30 pounds.
We topped off the day with a big cobia around 50 pounds.

Key Biscayne Fishing Forecast:

Fishing should improve in Miami, the next week.

Target Species:

Black fin tuna sailfish
