Описание тура

We continue to experience some decent offshore fishing in Fort Lauderdale. The frontal system has now passed and the winds have swung around to the east as expected. Partly cloudy skies have replaced the cloudless days we had in the midst of the front but there is still plenty of sunshine and only a slight possibility of rain. Clear blue water almost to the beach and a slight south current now. Once again that south current is not our favorite but most days have yielded reasonable catches. Despite the extremely clear water we are catching good numbers of Kingfish. While many continue to be school sized they are good fun and the action they have been providing is welcome. 80 to 110 feet of water depth has been best and they have been right out front of our inlet. Wee have been trolling extremely slow with light gear to draw the bites in this clear water. Kingfish have notorious eyesight and can be tough when the water is this pretty, but we are getting the bites most days. Some Blackfin Tuna and Skipjack Tuna out in 250 to 400 feet and an occasional Sailfish there also. Seeing some Sails inside in water around 120 feet too but overall the sailfish bite has slowed considerably the past couple of days. Good Wahoo around and we are spending some time with the live “Bullett Bonito” as bait as this is a good time of year for them. Some big Barracudas around as well and they are scattered in all depths. They are now strictly managed by the State and just added to the management this week. We have always released close to 100 percent of them as it is not wise to eat them, but many anglers from the north enjoy experiencing a big Cuda on the line. As for our mainly anglers from the south the Mahi-Mahi remain once again scarce. Always a south Florida favorite fish, good to eat and actively managed for years now, they remain a chance encounter this week. Happy Thanksgiving from all of us (Rick, Matt, Tommy, Garrett and JJ) aboard the Marlin My Darlin. Tight lines and good fishing.

Fort Lauderdale Charter Fishing Report –
Fort Lauderdale Charter Fishing Report –
Декабрь 20, 2023
As the festive season unfurls, so have our fishing lines! December in Fort Lauderdale has offered us a cocktail of weather patterns, but anglers aboard our renowned vessels – 'Marlin, My Darlin’ both 46 and 53 feet of pristine charter prowess – have reaped the benefits of a teeming Atlantic. Here's the lowdown on what's been leaping from the waters. **Sailfish Season in Swing:** December's dip in mercury traditionally heralds a spike in sailfish activity a trend that has held true. Thanks to cooler climes, these acrobatic fighters have been a consistent thrill, providing many anglers with the rush of a lifetime. Our captains have employed kite fishing with a master's touch, luring sailfish to the surface and into the hands of exuberant anglers. Incidentally, this method has also tempted imposing trophy sharks, with hammerheads, tigers, and makos making appearances that have sent reels screaming and pulses racing. **Mahi-mahi Mania:** Offshore pursuits have been fruitful for those targeting mahi-mahi. Most have returned successful, hoisting fish within the 3 to 7-pound bracket, although there have been tales of larger specimens. These vibrant battlers have been prowling waters from 400 to 1000 feet, where they've struck baits with the tenacity for which they're celebrated. **Tuna and Wahoo Whispers:** Blackfin tunas have graced us with their presence, albeit playing hard to get. Intermixed in the catch, wahoo has been the occasional delight – their searing speed and razor bite adding a layer of excitement to any fishing narrative. **Reef Fishing Rundown:** While the reef scene has been sluggish at times, especially for trolling enthusiasts, the perseverance of our crews has paid dividends. Wahoo have made periodic dashes across our spreads, while small tunas and respectable king mackerel have kept the action steady. **Wreck Fishing Rewards:** For those who've fancied their chances closer to the seabed, the shipwrecks have served up a mixed bag. Large snappers still lurk in the shadows, joined by formidable amberjacks and the visually delightful vermilion snappers. It's been a case of 'drop and reel' for those hitting these honey holes. **Looking Ahead:** With Mother Nature promising a stretch of sterling weather, and the holiday spirit embracing Fort Lauderdale, there couldn't be a more divine time for a family fishing charter. Whether you're a local or planning a yuletide vacation, the silver lining is clear – December's waters are bustling with life, and 'Marlin My Darlin’ charters are at the ready to create memories that will sparkle long after the holiday lights dim. Book your adventure and let's cast lines into the bright horizon of fishing festivities!

Outstanding South Florida Charter Fishin
Октябрь 25, 2023
The past few weeks have proven to be exciting times for fishing enthusiasts in South Florida. Despite windy weather and choppy seas, our charter fishing has been outstandingly fruitful. Why? Because these conditions usually lure in the larger fish. It's been a red-hot period for Sailfish enthusiasts who have found a productive bite along the reef ranging from 80 to 200 feet. Kite fishing is unmistakably our preferred method for tackling these challenging species, yielding impressive results. Those angling for Sailfish can also expect a good bycatch of mahi-mahi and blackfin tuna. Interestingly, our waters have also been frequented by a few large trophy sharks, namely robust bull sharks and elusive hammerheads. These unexpected visitors up the thrill factor, reinforcing that we're in the thick of trophy season. On the flip side, offshore mahi-mahi fishing has been slow, with most catches being reported along the reef through either live bait or trolling methods. Blackfin tuna has been showing up more regularly in the late afternoons, with catches typically weighing between 3 to 10 pounds. This bounty has ensured that our charter guests have plenty of opportunities to battle with larger game fish. All in all, this season's fishing report beams with excitement and promises even more action as we plunge further into the trophy season. Grab your gear and join us in the hunt for the 'Big One’!
