Exclusive Report for Cobia & Mangrove Snapper

CharterBoatRow.com — Tue, 15 Sep 2009 08:37:46 +0000

A group of Marathon local businessmen took advantage of some late summer downtime to fish with Capt. Chris Johnson and SeaSquared Charters out of 7 Mile Marina. They ventured 50 miles into the Gulf in search of jumbo mangrove snapper and were rewarded with fish up to six pounds.

They lost no fewer than 30 more grovers to the mightly Goliath grouper, who took more than their fair share. A couple of barracuda also enjoyed some of the snapper meant for the box.

The fall migration of cobia has begun in the Gulf. The group put two in the boat, each in the 20- to 25-pound class. They hooked a third that was over 30 pounds, but when it ate the bait it decided something was wrong and spit it back out before they could react. The cobes don’t get big by being stupid!

September in the Florida Keys

CharterBoatRow.com — Mon, 07 Sep 2009 10:55:24 +0000

. . . Fishing here continues to be epic. The last week or so has been very warm with little or no wind. Glassy smooth conditions make it easy to spot rollers, tailers and wakers. How ever it can be very tough to present a fly to permit in these conditions… Fall is a great time to fish the Florida Keys for permit, bonefish and baby tarpon.

Reef Bite Right

CharterBoatRow.com — Sat, 05 Sep 2009 10:52:47 +0000

Offshore fishing in the middle Keys has been hit and miss lately with some good catches of Dolphin (Mahi-Mahi) being had mostly around floating debris. Some larger fish have been hitting the docks recently, and can be anywhere from 6-30 miles offshore and is more of a hunt right now than just going fishing. Finding the birds can be another key and during spotty fishing times some capts are turning to technology to help in the form of radar that will pick up birds even miles away. This can help put you on Tuna and Dolphin if you locate a group of birds on your radar screen. Key is to get there quickly as the fish can be highly mobile this time of yr. Some capts have been deep dropping offshore with some success on large grouper and Swordfish. Blackfin tuna have been plentiful at the marathon west hump and the 409 hump as well.

The reef fishing off the middle Keys has been excellent lately with some large Mangrove Snapper highlighting catches to go along with Yellowtail Snapper and a few Muttons. An occasional grouper has been making it into the mix and the action has been excellent at night for anglers wanting to avoid the hot summer sun. Yellowtail have been chomping on the deep reef edge from 50-95ft of water and during daylight hours light line has been the key to get the bites with some anglers going as low as 10lb fluorocarbon to get the bites. Mutton Snapper have mostly been on the deeper atlantic wrecks after you pass the 120ft depth.

Florida bay action has been excellent on Sharks and Goliath groupers on some spots and some nice Snapper and Gag grouper on others. A cobia or two should start showing up on outer gulf wrecks as the cool fronts start to work down the Florida peninsula this month so be ready for some hot action out on Gulf wrecks in coming days.

Some hot bonefish action has been happening around the shallow flats of Duck Key and the Conch Keys with a few small tarpon showing up as well near the Tom’s Harbor bridges. Some good tarpon action has been reported at night near the vaca cut bridge as well. Permit have been munching around the 7 mile bridge flats especially near Pigeon Key.

Good luck in all your fishing adventures!

Just got back yesterday after fly fishing cuts in the snake river near grand teton in Wyoming for the past month and checked out the backcountry today to see whats up.Started out on shoreline points with top water and gulp lures and found lots of snook in the 24″ to 28″ range and they were hungry.constant action on lures for like 2 hours on one spot.Nice mangrove snapper,jack and a few baby tarpon running the bank as well.After the action slowed I spotted a few muds out in the open water and was in it again with trout,ladyfish and more jacks.We fished for about 5 hour and saw no other boats and landed a ton of fish.Backwater is doing better then when I left in early July, a great first day fishing back to Key Largo.

Little Girl… Big Fish

CharterBoatRow.com — Tue, 25 Aug 2009 15:47:10 +0000

Brianna Sutton and family, from Pittsburgh, PA, spent the day fishing aboard the Mr. Z and came home with the trophy catch. While dropping on a Submarine wreck in 240 feet of water, Brianna caught, fought, and landed this 40 lb. Amberjack all by herself.

The “Hammer Jack” took 20 minutes to land and was released to fight another day!
