07/06/16 Fishing Report: Big Wahoo Have Arrived, Snook Are Spawning!

A junior angler caught a 42 lb wahoo during a deep sea half day charter on 07/02/16.
Offshore, the biggest wahoo of the year have moved into our local waters between Boca Raton and Boynton Beach. We caught 2 wahoo this week that weighed 32 and 43 lbs, and also hooked a couple more that came off. They are feeding on massive schools of bonito about 1 mile offshore. Blackfin tuna have been filling in the gaps between wahoo bites.

5year old luca reeled in this 39″ snook during an inshore charter on 07/01/16.
Inshore, giant snook have been biting near the inlets during their Summer spawning ritual. This is catch and release fishing at its finest. This is the best time of year to catch the biggest snook of your life!

5/10/16 Fishing Report: 1st Place Small Boat Division In Saltwater Shootout!

I joined the “Controlled Slack” fishing team for the 2016 Pompano Beach Shootout. We won 1st place small boat division and 22nd overall out of 145 boats. We were able to weigh 63.9 lbs of tuna and kingfish. We made the run to fish my home waters near Boynton Inlet and the decision paid off with some decent Blackfin tuna fishing. We managed to land 3 out of 4 tunas hooked, all weighing 13 to 20 lbs. Around 2pm we went offshore and we found frigate birds with small dolphin under them. We landed a 7 pounder before heading back inshore for a big kingfish or cobia. We caught a small cobia, a 10 lb kingfish, and quite a few bonito before calling it a day. We also hooked into 6 sailfish during the tournament, even though they didn’t count towards the money it is good to see them out there. The peak of our offshore and inshore fishing season is upon us and I expect great fishing all around for upcoming charters. We are now offering charters on a tournament rigged 25′ Competition that was used during this tournament (pictured below). Call Captain Chris at 561-451-7646 to book a trip today!

25′ Competition Center Console is now available for charter for $550 half day.
Another big blackfin tuna landed less than a mile from shore.
Cooler full of blackfin tuna, bonito, mahi mahi, and kingfish!

We won $1,500 for Top Small Boat!

Spring break is in full swing and I have been fishing every day. Yesterday morning we had a great inshore trip,  catching and releasing 11 snook and 2 jacks. In the afternoon we had an offshore charter and caught 3 Blackfin tuna and 4 bonito. In the evening we had a night inshore fishing charter and caught 1 snook, 7 sunshine bass, and 1 spinner shark. This morning I had an offshore charter and caught 1 wahoo, 1 tuna, and 2 bonito. The bite should continue to improve as warmer temps bring more fish into the area. Here are some pics from the last 2 days:
