Holiday Fishing Heating up in Fort Lauderdale

First off, the Wednesday All Day Dolphin trip that we run every week had a killer catch. We started off as we normally do, looking for dolphin fish offshore. After a couple hours of not catching much, we decided to come in to try some deep water snapper fishing. The snapper fishing had been good this week and heck, we don’t care what we catch, as long as we catch fish. So we came in to about 200′ of water and did some deep dropping. I’m glad we did too, because we loaded up on the snappers today. We ended up catching over 80 vermillion snappers. Continue reading

Christmas Fishing this week in Fort Lauderdale

The drift fishing boat did good today as well. We got into the snappers pretty good. Quite a few muttons snappers were caught today, along with some decent sized yellowtail snapper. Most of the mutton snappers were too small to keep, but it was still fun fishing for and catching them. The yellowtails turned on as soon as we got into less than 120′ of water. Continue reading
