This was a much better week than last! The Kingfish were finally chewing and we saw some decent size fish. No live bait again, but as usual the frozen minnows worked just fine. The kings varied in size each day but everyone had a blast. Mixed in with the kings were several mahi and cobia as well. Using the basic treble hooked stinger rigs worked out just fine. the local top spot reefs had all the fish. No secrets here. We didn’t waste time pulling all the ballyhoo mahi gear. We did just as good if not better than some that dedicated the day to the deep trolling all day.

Bottom fishing was very good for chicken rigging. Triggerfish, Seabass, Lanes and bee liners worked out well. Some larger fish like grouper and big reds were chewing well too. If deep wasn’t good that try the beach for Spanish macks and big red drum.

Good luck from Fired Up Charters.
