SLI OFFSHORE
By Bullchaser, 11/17/09

We finally got out after hearing of the steady dolphin bite. It took some searching but Capt. was able to find a thin weed line north of the inlet that produced very well. Trolled it east with some naked hoos. Boated 5 phins at 5-10 lbs and missed many more. We really had to work with these fish. Lots of drop backs. The icing for the day was the Wahoo that lit up our flat line! All hits came between 200-250. Awesome day on the water with some great friends! >>Forum Thread & More Photos

DITCH FISHING
By kenner1902, 11/08/09

Went out today despite all of the wind and hit one of my favorite intracoastal snapper spots. We managed 5 keeper mangroves (live shrimp). There were lots of jacks and ladyfish caught in the mix. We headed in for some lunch and then went back out to the flat just north of beer can island. We set up a kite for a shark and had a small jack for bait. After about 30 minutes of no action my girlfriend said we weren't going to catch a shark... wouldn't you know it, the line in the clip got tight and broke loose!! Shark on!!!! It was about a 25 pound spinner that gave us some fantastic jumps. It was too windy for us out front so we had a blast in the ditch. We saw maybe 25 boats all day long, there is some great fishing in close when it’s windy.>>Forum Thread & More Photos

‘PHIN FUN
By E-money, 11/02/09

Had a chance to hook up with Seppo, Lindus & Dave on 3 Buoys Saturday morning. We live baited in the AM down south near the breakers. We saw two frigates in shallow (60-70') and ballys that were showering. Was thinking sail as I dropped back on strike, but was pleased to see a nice gaffer dolphin grey-hound and catch some air… >>Forum Thread & More Photos

FIRST SAILFISH
By Snook Slayer13, 10/25/09

I went out on Saturday at about 6:45. The weather man said 5 mph out of the south but it was 10-15 out of the NE, wasn’t a calm day in the morning. We caught a blackfin smaller than a football in 200 feet of water and a huge skipjack in about 400 feet of water. We were out 180 feet on a very good rip just off of trumps when a sailfish hit. I jumped up being seasick and grabbed the rod. When the fish jumped it looked me in the eye and I was so happy because it’s my first sailfish. Started stripping line for ever and the reel was burning. He never stopped taking line and then he started jumping. The fish probably jumped 10 times… >>Forum Thread & More Photos
