The Fort Lauderdale sportfishing boats came in with a couple big sharks today and yesterday. The big sharks are still coming through the area and they are hungry. The sharks showed up late this year, but they are still migrating through in strong numbers. The action on them has been awesome. Today, and I’ll have to wait for the customer to email me the pictures, we caught 2 sharks on the same rig simultaneously. It was incredible, we were fighting one shark and the bait was kind of hanging out of his mouth. Another shark came up and ate the chunk of meat hanging out of his mouth and got hooked himself. It was a very unusual catch for us. We also caught a big amberjack along with this shark. A very good day of sportfishing out there off Ft. Lauderdale.
About Captain Andy
My name is Paul Roydhouse. I've been fishing the waters off Fort Lauderdale almost every day of my life since I was 17 years old. It's been 40 years now, and I still love it. Fishing is the most fun thing to do in the whole wide world. It takes skill, but it's fun even if you don't have any skill. And anyone can pick up the basic skills of fishing pretty quick. It takes patience. Not on every fishing trip are the fish going to be jumping in the boat. You have to wait for the bite, sometime for an eternity and then be ready when it does hit. Fishing tests your wit, your patience, your resolve and sometimes your sanity. It's my favorite way to spend my day. As I have been for my entire life, I enjoy taking people fishing and using my skills to help them catch lots of fish.
