Fort Lauderdale Deep Sea Fishing Report

It’s been some good fishing this week on the Fishing Headquarters boats this week. The sailfish are still biting good out there. All week, actually all month, the sailfish have been thick out there. This has been a banner year for sailfish off the coast of South Florida. All the sailfish we’re catching are big ones, about 7 feet long. The sailfish are biting the best on our afternoon trips lately. Morning trips have had their fair share of sailfish, but the best catches lately have been in the PM.

Ft Lauderdale Sport Fishing Report

The action has slowed down a bit on the reef this past week off Ft. Lauderdale.

Fishing Ft Lauderdale- 7 foot Lemon Shark Caught and Released

Our customer grabbed the rod and began to fight the fish. After 20 minutes of fighting the fish, I looked down and said, “Ya got 2 minutes, Buddy”. Everyone thought I was joking, but I wasn’t. There was a huge tanker ship exiting the port and he was headed right at us. We steered clear and narrowly missed the tanker ship and amazingly kept the fish hooked. An hour later, and after scrambling around 3 different ships, we caught and released a 7 foot lemon shark on 20# test line. A great fishing feat that made memories of a lifetime for our clients from Texas. Continue reading
