The fall migration of baitfish is here. Schools of mullet and pilchards are around Haulover cut. That means the the predators will be close behind. Snook, bluefish, mackerel and jacks are feeding along the beaches and inlets. Soon, the first cold fronts will be here, and with the drop in water temperature, the fishing will heat up! Dolphin are hit or miss offshore, kings are here and there, but the bottom fishing is good. Some wahoo were caught near the full moon. It's only going to get better! Capt Matt
Fished with Trainer Tres Abbott and jockey Forest Boyce looking for big tarpon to add to his list. We made a few drifts over an hour and not much but a spanish mackeral, ladyfish and some bluefish. Finally , after some patience the reel sang with that beautiful noise, Zinggg..... The fish showed himself and what a fish!! 100 plus pounds of pure muscle, thrashing and jumping at will. Tres did a beautiful job winding and pumping till his arm went numb. What a great job on the reel, and what a trophy!! 100 plus pounds!!!! Lets get out there for your fish of a lifetime...... Capt. Matt
