    Other Side

    May 17, 2021

    We had the opportunity to make a run to the Other Side (of the Gulf Stream) last Wednesday. We had a group of FSFA Fishermen onboard, most of us had little experience with fishing the Other Side, but plenty of experience fishing. We left the Port at 3:30am with smooth seas and calm winds. We ran almost 100 miles before setting up the lines and then turning our attention to the radar in hopes of finding some working birds. Waves were a bit rougher than we had hoped for so we pulled lines and headed south.

      Pelican Flats

      January 18, 2021

      We have been trying to catch the calm between fronts for the last couple of months. Sunday looked like it was going to be our chance, but when we woke up the 20 mile buoy was still reading 3’ waves and 4 second period, so we decided to push to the afternoon so it could warm up and calm down. We life the Port at 11:30am and it was a smooth ride out to the Flats. We trolled cigar minnows and caught 5 small kingfish, 4 Little Tunny and a monster 6.3 pound Spanish Mac. Mark one down for the weekend warriors!

        Kingfish Limit

        August 24, 2020

        Went out Saturday (Dang weekend warriors!) and started on the bouys looking for live bait. We were using sabiki rigs both rigged with squid and without. After an hour we only had a half dozen baits so we decided to head out to 8A and try our luck. We hooked up almost immediate after we got our spread out. Then nothing, so we were contemplating heading back towards the beach in search of bait.

          Mahi and Barracuda

          June 15, 2020

          We left the launch ramp at 5:30am looking to run 30 miles to 200 feet of water. Within 5 miles of the Port we came up on a big ball of bait fish so we stopped to try and catch some. After a couple of throws we realized the bait was only a couple inches long, so we gave up and kept going. We hit our first organized weed line in 160 feet of water and stopped to troll along the line. We hooked up with 5 Barracuda and decided to go out a little further. Once in 200 feet of water we went back to trolling on the weed line with one small peanut. We trolled off the weed line and caught a nice Mahi. We went 2 for 4 on the Mahi and the bite was done by noon.

            Offshore Troll

            December 2, 2019

            Launched out of Freddie Patrick on Wednesday (27 Nov) and headed due East with a plan to troll from the City Service Tankers thru the Cones into 300′ looking for the Gulf Stream temperature change. At around 25 miles out or 6 miles short of the Tankers we ran into a pod of ~30 Porpoise cruising from the south to the north.
