Holden Beach Marina

Things are shaping up for our fantastic fall fishing. The red drum, trout and flounder are biting well inshore, the big spanish mackerel and big sharks are chewing on the beach. The big new is the unbelievable bottom fishing and wahoo fishing starting in 100 ft. of water. The bee liners, bass, etc, as well as a few grouper are chewing hard, with some king mackerel in the same area. The wahoo bite has been great starting in 110 ft of water, where they are feeding on all the bee liners in the area. There have been mulitiple catch's of 4-8 wahoo reported. There are also a few dolphin, blackfin tuna, and billfish feeding on the break. The fishing only gets better from here, so give us a call and let's go fishing.

The spanish mackerel have shown back up on the beach, and the large sharks are biting as well. In the 65 ft. depths, the sea bass are biting very well, with a few gag grouper and amberjack in the mix. In the 80 ft. depths, the dolphin are biting well, with most fish in the 12-18 lb. range. The flounder are biting well on the reefs, and there are some redfish biting inshore. For the begining of august, the fishing is suprisingly good. Give us a call and let's go fishing.

Last week, the spanish bite was pretty slow, but in 65 ft of water on out, the bass and aj's were chewing. The big news is the gag grouper have finally made a showing in 70 ft. of water. The last few days we haven't been able to fish due to wind and thunderstorms, but will be back on the water tommorow. I'll let everyone know what happens.

The fishing was decent this past week, with king mackerel and big spanish at the shark hole, the jungle, the 390's, and all the normal area's. The amberjack's have been thick at the atlantic ledge as well as the 24 mile rock. Bass are every where from 50 ft. on out. Closer in, the spanish and sharks are feeding from the beach out to around 40 ft. of water. With the full  moon gone, and the wind forcast to switch back to the sw, the fishing should really fire back off this week. Give us a call. Let's go fishing.

The fishing has been pretty good lately. The spanish mackerel have moved off of the beach into the 3 mile range, with a few small kings mixed in. The king mackerel bite has been good at the 15 mile rock, with a few cobia and mahi in the mix. Also in the 15 mile range the black sea bass have been chewing hard as well. Offshore, the grouper and bass bite has been great from 85 ft. on out. The fishing is good, the weather has been ok, so give us a call to book you're trip now.

Today, we headed to the sharkhole on a 3/4 day charter to try and find some king mackerel. Within 5 minutes of slowing down, we were hooked up. Put a nice one around 15 lbs. in the box, and a couple of minutes later, we were hooked up again. A twin of the first one. This continued on for the next hour and 45 minutes, and would have probably continued for longer, but we had our 9 fish limit, all 12-15 lbs. We headed back in to the beach to try and catch a shark, but they did't want to cooperate. We'll be back king fishing in the morning. I let everyone know how we do. Also, my customers are supposed to send me pics. I'll post them as soon as I get them.  

Yesterday morning, we headed to the blackjack in search of dolphin. Upon arriving at 7:15, we made our first pass across the numbers, and it was on. 3 fish, 4 fish, 5 fish on. #6 comes greyhounding in from the side and nails the flatline, then busts off. #7 hits the planer bait on the way up, but never gets hooked up. We're covered up. We get the first 5 in, all between 15 and 20 lbs., then resest the spread. Nothing for awhile, so we head deep, out to 100 fathoms, then back without so much as a sniff. Once we get back in, the flatline gets nailed, 12 lb. blackfin, then both longriggers, 2 more dolphin in the box. We kept at it for the rest of the day, with 1 fish here, 2 fish there, and ended the day with a dozen dolphin up to the low 20's, and one tuna. The weather was beautiful, and the fish were hungry, what a day. I have a couple of half days toward the end of the week, I let everyone know what goes down. I should have some pics from yesterday tommorow, so I'll post them then.

Friday and Saturday both, we headed sw of the tower looking for a grouper of two. We managed a handful both days, with a ton of big bass, several big sharks each day, one 12-14 lb. american red snapper friday, and two in the same range on saturday. On Saturdy, I fished with good friends Lane and Ronnie, and in addition to that bottom fish, we did catch a nice king mackerel on the light line that 9 hours later weighed 36.5 lbs. I'll be headed to the gulfstream on tuesday. I have more pics that I'll post when I get them.

Hey guys, I have a soldier getting ready to deploy and his wife looking for 2 more to join them for a full day either sunday or monday. Cost is $250 each. 910-880-9947. Thanks.

I've just heard that the king mackerel made a showing at the 390-390 yesterday. Some where caught on live pogies, and some on dead cigar minnows. They're a couple of weeks late, but are finally here. There should also be some fish at Light House Rocks and the Sharkhole. Any day now, we should have our normal early run of kings on the beach. They always follow the blue fish and spanish mackerel inshore, and are here by mother's day. The fishing is heating up, so it's time to get out there.

Capt. Lyndon

I'm putting together an open boat trip on sunday. Grouper is the main target. Limited to 4 anglers, at $250 each. Call 910-880-9947.

Capt. Lyndon

Yesterday, I had Chris Newton and crew on board for a blue water trip. We started at the Black Jack, and had only been trolling for about 5 minutes when the starboard flat went off. First dolphin of the year for us at around 6 lbs. Not huge, but a start. After working the BJ for another hour or so, we headed up the line toward the steeples. About a mile from the offshore numbers, the port rigger started screaming. After about a 15 minute fight on the tld 25, I start seeing color. Nice tuna, maybe the first yellowfin in a while. The fish got closer, and I see that it is a nice black fin, which would weigh 29 lbs. 12 oz back at the dock. About 10 minutes later, the shotgun went off. This one ending up being a football blackfin. We worked the are for a couple of more hours with nothing else, and decided to head back inshore to try to catch some beeliners. We couldn't get anything past the 3-6 lb. bass to catch anything else. Come on June 1. All in all, not a bad day, not the best, but certainly not the worst. It won't be long until the bluewater is on fire, and I can't wait.

I had a another half day charter this morning. We trolled around the big hill for an hour or a little longer, and put 18 blues and 8 spanish in the boat. The crew wanted to do a little bottom fishing, even though they knew that we couldn't keep any bass, so off we went. Once again, the nice bass were chewing hard. We caught probably 150 bass, with 50 or 60 in the 1-2 lb. range. June 1 can't get here quick enough. I have a bluewater trip in the am, so I'll let everyone know what happens. If you're out there, give me a shout on 6, Grace May. I know a couple of you tried to call me this morning, sorry I couldn't get back to you. I had a loose ground on my vhf, and it was affecting the signal big time, but I have it straightend out now. Happy Easter to everyone tommorow, and stay tuned.

Capt. Lyndon

I had a 5 hour and a 7 trip on the books today, but due to the weather, I moved the 5 hour am trip to tommorow. The afternoon trip wanted to go ahead and go and try some inshore fishing for whatever would bite, so we headed to Lockwood Folly inlet to anchor up and try to catch a few whiting. They were there, and nice sized one's too. In the first little bit, we put 18 or 20 in the box, along with 4 or 5 blues. We also hooked a flounder in the 16-17" range, but lost him right at the boat. After the current picked up and started running hard on the falling tide, the bite died off. There was rain starting to move in, so we decided to pack it in for the day. I forgot how much fun, and how relaxing this type of fishing can be. I have a half day in the morning, and a gulf stream trip on Sunday, so stay tuned. For anyone out there tommorow, give me a shout on 6, Grace May, and I'll let you know what's happening.

Capt. Lyndon

I had 2 half day charters today, and the fish were CHEWING. On the morning trip, the bluefish were biting hard in 20 ft. of water between Lockwood Folly and the big hill. We had numerous double and triple headers, keeping 15 and releasing another 15 or 20. We also caught our first spanish of the year. On the afternoon trip, the bluefish were still biting hard, but with a much smaller class of fish. Out of 15 or so in the first 30 minutes, we decided to head offshore a little bit and catch and release some "endangered" sea bass. I wouldn't hesitate to say we landed somewhere between 100 and 150 bass, with the majority keeper size, and quite a few over 2 lbs. I can't wait until June 1 when we can keep out bass again. All in all, not a bad day, with excellent fishing, and beautiful weather. I have 2 more trips tommorow, but don't know if the weatherman will let us go. I'm keeping my fingers crossed.

Capt. Lyndon

Friday, I had a half day charter with good friends and customers Edwin and Bruce. Edwin had his young grandsons, and was justing wanting them to catch something whether we could keep anything or not. We started about 3 miles from the inlet, and found not only beautiful seas, but plentiful big bass in the 14-18" range. We made a few drifts, and it slowed a little, so we kept moving. We ended the day 8 miles from the inlet, and probably caught in the neighborhood of 200 bass, with app. 60-80 that would have been keepers if it were open. All in all, not a bad trip, but would have been much better if we could have kept our fish

There has been an unbelievable grouper bit lately in 60 ft. of water, with 12-20 fish trips the norm. There are also alot of nice sea bass in the mix. The spanish bite has hit or miss on the beach, and the king mackerel have been extremely slow to bit lately. Good friend Capt. Jeff Reid, however did catch a few at the 15 mile rock yesterday, so who knows. In years past, the kings have shown up in force at the Jungle the third week of Sept, so it shouldn't be long before they fire back up. The big news is the wahoo bite, with boats getting there limits some trips. The last week of the month is when the beach and river channel bite always fire's off, and I can't wait. This is one of my favorite times of the year, since the fish are close, and schooled up big time. Give us a call and book today for the fishing trip of a life time.

Capt. Lyndon

With the full moon having the mackerel bite shut down, we have been doing alot of bottom fishing the last few days. The grouper bite has been awesome, with 10-15 fish trips the norm. The sea bass and other assorted bottom fish have been chewing quite well too. I have trips the rest of the week, with only a couple of openings, so give us a call soon to get in on the great fishing we have going on right now.

Capt. Lyndon

The fishing has been awesome the past few weeks. From spanish and sharks on the beach, king mackerel and amberjack a little further out, and grouper and b-liners in the 40 mile range. The last couple of days, we've caught everything from 300 lb sand tiger sharks to king mackerel close to the 40 lb. mark. Yesterday I had good friends Randy and Daniel on board for a 12 hour trip. The plan was to go to the black jack and see what happens. With the big south swell we had first thing in the morning, we decided to stop short in the 25 mile range and king mackerel fish. We put two low-teen's kings in the box pretty quick, then hooked a huge sand tiger shark. We had no clue what we had until 3 hours and 4.5 miles later, when the big fish surfaced right beside the boat. We'd had enough of that for a while, so we headed on out to around 90 ft. of water to try and find a mahi. The second line in the water got smoked by a nice king, which ended up weighing 33 lbs, 12 oz. After we started back trolling, we hooked up with another big sand tiger, which we released after a 2 hour fight. We'd all had more than enough of fighting huge fish on lite tackle, so we decided to bottom the last 30 minutes before we headed back in. We ended up with our limit of 10 big b-liners in the 3-4 lb range, two grouper, and a couple of other assorted bottom dwellers. Today, I had a 3/4 day trip, and had heard of a good class of fish in 60 ft of water, so we caught bait and headed on out. The first line in the water was absolutely smoked by a big king mackerel, which ended up weighing 39 lbs, 2 oz 6 hours later back at the dock. It was 10 year old Hunter's first ever fish. What a way to get broken in. We stayed hooked for the next 3 hours, ending the day with 10 kings, weighing 39, 29, 27, 5 more over 20, one around 18 and one around 12. We also had a 26" gag grouper hit the downrigger bait at 45 ft. I have a pic of the 39, and my guys from yesterday and today are going to e-mail me pics of the rest of the fish. The fishing is as good as it gets right now, so give us a call and let's go catching.

Sorry I haven't put a report up in a while. We've been extremely busy. The fishing is as good as it gets right now. On half day charters, we've been spanish fishing and shark fishing, catching good numbers of spanish and monster sharks, including a 9 ft. bull shark this morning. On 3/4 and full day trips, the king mackerel bite has been awesome, with fish at both the horseshoe and the 24 mile rock. There have also been a good number of amberjacks and a few cobia in the mix. As you can tell, the fishing is awesome now, so give us a call to book you're trip today!

After moving my trip this morning to tommorow due to thunderstorms, I booked a short 3 hour spanish trip for this afternoon once the weather cleared. We started trolling right outside the cans, and within 5 minutes had the first one in the box. We continued working to the east, picking up a fish here and there, mixed up between keepers and barely shorts. Made it down to Ocean Crest Pier, and turned around, trolling back to the inlet, slowly picking at them the whole way. I think we ended up with 8 keeper spanish, 3 or 4 bluefish, and 7 or 8 throwback spanish. All in all, not the best trip I've had, but not the worst either. The sea conditions weren't bad at all, 2 ft with the occasional 3 in the mix. I have a 7 hour trip in the morning. We're going to try to find a king mackerel. I'll let everyone know what happens.

Capt. Lyndon

On thursday, we ran a half day charter targeting king mackerel. After catching live bait, I headed to lighthouse rocks. The action was kind of hit or miss, with us landing 3 kings and 3 sharks. We left lighthouse and headed to ar 445, where we found a pretty good mixed bag bite, catching 4 more kings, a couple of amberjack, and hooking a big cobia. We fought the cobia, which weighed somewhere between 50 and 60 lbs, on light action, 20 lb. test gear for 2 and half hours before he broke us off on the reef.

On saturday, we ran a full day bottom fishing trip. After catching live bait, we decided to stop at lighthouse rock. We caught one king and one spanish there, then headed offshore to 95 ft of water, where we found an awesome black sea bass bite. We kept 57 or so, and released at least that many. Most were very nice fish, over 2 lbs. We put the trolling lines in before leaving the area, catching 2 more king mackerel. Before we came home, we decided to make a stop and see if we couldn't jig a few amberjacks up off of a wreck. As soon as the jig hit the water, I looked down, and there was a nice cobia swimming right beside the boat. Grabbing a live bait rod, Jason Wheatley flipped a pogie to the fish, which didn't take long to inhale the bait. This was a mean fish, fighting us for 3 hours on the 20 lb. test rod before coming close enough to gaff. As you can tell, the fishing is great right now, and should only get better. Give us a call today to book your trip!

Capt. Lyndon

The dolphin have shown up good in the gulfstream, with a few wahoo and blackfin tuna in the mix. They have all been biting on ballyhoo behind sea witches and small trolling lures. The king mackerel bite is good from around 40 ft. on out, with Lighthouse Rock and the 390/390 being the hotspots. There have also been a few fish around Christina's Ledge and AR 445. I didn't spend much time looking for pogies since frozen cigar minnows have been working as well or better. The cobia are mixed in with the king mackerel. Just set up a drip bottle with menhaden oil to get the brown torpedoe's up to the boat. While a cobia has a hard time resisting a live pogie, it's always a good idea this time of year to keep a rod rigged with a bucktail and long plastic worm to cast to them. I have also heard a couple of reports of dolphin mixed in with the king mackerel from 10 miles off the beach on out. Bottom fishing has been awesome, with some boats limiting out on grouper in around 100 ft. of water. Jason and Lauren Wheatley, Rickey Moore, Capt.'s Ryan Williams and Al Davis made the maiden voyage on our new boat, an Albemarle Express, to 90 ft of water. They absolutely murdered the big knothead seabass on saturday. The fishing's as good as it gets right now, so give us a call today to book your trip!

Had another 1/2 day this morning. We headed to the '90s hoping to find a decent bite like there was on friday, but no love. I made the decision to go to Christina's Ledge, and within 5 minutes of slowing down, had the first king mackerel on. While resetting the spread, hooked up on another one. Put the lines back out, and trolled for another hour and finally hooked up again. The winds and seas had built to 3-4 ft, with the occasional 5 thrown in, so we made the decision to head back to the dock. Final tally for the day: 3 king mackerel, one spanish, one shark, and one 13" sea bass on the downrigger. It looks like it's going to blow for the next couple of days, but will be back at it on thursday.

Capt. Lyndon

We left the inlet this morning and headed east looking for bait. About a half mile down Oak Island, the bait was thick in about 12 ft. of water. One throw, and we were loaded up. Headed to Yaupon Reef. Ended up with one king mackerel, one spanish, and a bunch of sharks. Also had 3 or 4 short strikes. I have another half day in the morning. I believe I'm going to Christina's Ledge or the 390/390. I let everyone know what happens. It look like we're heading to the bluewater on wednesday and thursday. I just hope the forecast holds. Winds less than 15 knts. all week.

After looking at the temp and chlorophyll shots, I decided to head to the steeples today. It was my younger brother Jordan's first spring time stream trip, so I was hoping to put him on some fish. We put lines in around 3 miles inshore of the numbers, in 69 degree water. Just inshore of the structure was a nice temp break, going to 71 degrees. On the first pass over the numbers, I look back and see stripes after my dasiy chain. I grab the short flat, crank it in a couple of turns, and the hoosky nailed it. After a quick 1o minute fight, we box number one, around 20 lbs. About 30 minutes later, The short flat goes to screaming again. 15 minutes later, hoo number 2 in the box, around 30 lbs. About an hour later, the bird/green machine I had way long sounded off. This fish peeled off 300 yards of line, then bit through the fluorocarbon. We trolled for another hour or so with no love, and decided to go jigging. First drop, I hooked a decent hoo, which managed to bite me off. Next up, Jordan caught a 35 lb jack. This pace kept up for the next 3 hours. We released numerous jacks, a scamp around 15 lbs, and a yellow edge grouper in the high teens, as well as a few false albacore. On the way home, I decided to hit a bass number offshore of the tower a ways. In 30 minutes, we put 20 or so knotheads in the boat. What a great day. I'll post pics tommorow, as soon as I get them off the camera. Final tally, 2 wahoo, numerous jacks, 2 grouper, a few boneheads, and 20 or so big bass.

Sorry for the late report. Last Thursday, I took friends Edwin and Bruce, and Edwin's grandsons Myles and Cooper out for a half day. We were looking for black bass, and caught a bunch, with only a few keepers. We probably could have caught more, but the spiny dog fish were THICK. This was not a problem, however. The boys had a ball catching 40 or so, and keeping 18 to eat. I think the smiles on their faces say it all. Fishing is starting to heat up, so give us a call and let's go!

It looks like from Wed. on, the weather is going to be awesome. It also look like there may be some water pushing in around the wahoo holes to the south. I'll be willing to bet there is going to be a decent wahoo and blackfin bite this week.Also, the sea bass are thick in 80 ft water and deeper. Give us a call to book your trip today. 910-880-9947

Unfortunately, I've been busy getting the boats ready for the season and haven't been able to take advantage of the beautiful weather we've had the last couple of days. However, I do have a report to give you guys. Capt.'s Roger Gales and Zack Faulkner, as well as Zach's father Benji and Rickey Beck found an awesome sea bass bite at the Horseshoe yesterday. There were also some wahoo caught at the Same 'Ole, with a few blackfin tuna mixed in. The weather's getting right, the boats are ready to roll, and the fish are starting to chew. Give us a shout and let's go catch 'em up.

Capt. Lyndon

We tuna fished yesterday in Morehead City, but didn't have a bite by 11:00, and neither did most of the other boats fishing, so we headed offshore a little bit to commercial king mackerel fish. On our first and only stop, we found an awesome bite. In around 4 hours, we caught 47 kings and 30 or so false albacore. We'll...... be going back up after Christmas, so stay tuned, and Merry Christmas to Everyone.

 We bluefin fished Monday and Tuesday in Morehead, but our number didn't get called. There were somewhere between 10 and 20 fish a day killed this week. We'll be back up there the first part of the week. I'll let everyone know what happens.

There were 15-20 bluefin killed in Morehead City today. We may be going up there to fish Monday and Tuesday, and if not, we're going to fish down here. I'll let you guys know what happens.

Due to winds that have blown for a month straight, we haven't been able to get on the water, but we have put the time to good use getting ready for giant bluefin tuna season. We are going to start fishing for them on Monday here at home, and then when we get the our new boat ready next week, we'll making the trek to Morehead City for the rest of the season. While this is primarily a commercial fishery, we are also offering charters for these awesome beasts. If you've ever wanted to catch a fish the size of a small car, now is the time. Give us a call for more information.

Well guys, the king mackerel bite slowed a bit over the weekend, but was still pretty decent. I say slowed because on tuesday we commercial fished the horseshoe and had around 40 king mackerel between 10 and 15 lbs, a bunch of false albacore, as well as 2 blackfin in the 30 lb. range.On saturday we only had 7 or 8 at the shoe, and another 10 or so at the sharkhole. However, Saturday we were entered in the first annual Holden Beach Merchant Associations king mackerel tourney, and lucked up and won with a 24.5 lber. I went fun fishing today with good friends Edwin and Bruce. We went back to the sharkhole in search of grouper, and it was on. We kept our 3 fish limit and released another 12 gags. We headed on out to 95 ft of water looking for scamps, but ended up catching another nice gag, as well as 8 blackbass in the 2-3lb range, one barely legal red snapper, as well as a few triggers and grunts. My camera is messed up again, but I'll post pics as soon as I get them from the guys that have been fishing with me. I may try to go again tommorow. I'll let you guys know what we do.

Capt. Lyndon

The king mackerel fishing continues to be nothing short of on fire. We commercial fished 3 days last week, catching over 90 mackerel over the course of the 3 days. On Friday, I had a 1/2 day charter, and took them to the sharkhole. We had our 9 fish limit in just under 2 hours. The kings are spread out everywhere from the beach out to Frying Pan Tower, and will really get thick as fall progresses. On another note, we will be leaving for the Morehead City giant bluefin tuna bite around thanksgiving, and are taking reservations for charters from thanksgiving through the end of January. This is your chance to catch the fish of a lifetime, seeing that these fish average from 250 to 700 lbs. I have a couple of pics from last week, but left the camera on the boat. I'll try to post them tonight.

The king mackerel bite continue's to be good from the beach on out, with a good number of large fish in the 25-40 lb. range coming from the beach out to 50 ft. There are still a good number of spanish and bluefish around as well. The gag grouper and amberjack bite is good from 70 ft. of water on out, with alot of smaller kings in the same area's. The wahoo and blackfin tuna bite is good in the gulfstream, with some mahi-mahi and sailfish still mixed in. The fall fishing is as good as gets now, and in another month, the bluefin tuna will be around as well.

/>Friday, Jason Wheatley, Al Davis and myself headed out in search of King Mackerel. We went to the south fishing the 70 ft hole, jungle, hammer, and back in to the 90's. The bite was slow for numbers, but we did have some nice fish, with a couple in the mid and upper teens, and one in the mid-30's. I'll post pics as soon as I get them off my camera. On Saturday, I had Zack Shackelton and Jeff Reid on board. We tried to find some fish on the beach, but I guess it's still a couple of days early. We had one king mackerel on, and pulled the hooks right at the

We headed out this morning hoping to get a trip in before the rain. We did get to fish a coup1e of hours before getting rained out, and had a decent trip. We started out spanish fishing right in front of Lockwoods Folly Inlet, and put 4 or 5 in the boat in about 5 minutes, but the guys said they wanted to try to catch something a little larger. We set off down the beach in search of pogies, which we found plentiful just before Ocean Crest Pier. After catching bait, we headed straight off the pier in about 30 ft of water, where the tideline was rolling through. I put the spread out, and it wasn't 10 minutes when one the Speedmasters all but exploded. We cleared the rest of the lines and gave chase, as the fish had already smoked off 350-400 yards of line. The fish started acting strange, so I knew it was a decent shark and not a king makerel. An hour later, we had the app. 70 lb. hammerhead on ice, and were headed back to the marina before the gullywasher hit. The shark was caught on a 20 lb. live bait set-up, and was one heck of a battle. It looks like the weather is going to clear up on thursday, so I'll be back on the water then. The fall fishing is just around the corner, so give us a call today to book your trip.

Capt. Lyndon

I had a half day trip this morning with Perry Ballard and crew from Salisbury, NC. We headed to the Shark Hole in search of king mackerel, and unfortunately, the few we caught were all undersized. However, we did find a good bite of big spanish mackerel with a few mahi mixed in. I believe final tally for the morning was 6 spanish, 4 mahi, 3 under sized kings and one sharpnose shark. The ocean was beautiful, with extremely clear water. The fantastic fall fishing is just around the corner, so book your trip now for world class king mackerel, wahoo and grouper fishing.

Capt. Lyndon

The ocean was a little sloppy first thing this morning, so we spanished fished for a little while, with only one to show for our efforts. We then started working our way offshore in search of kings. We never did find them, however we did manage a handful of jumbo spanish, as well a 6 man limit of sharpnose sharks. All in all, not a bad trip. We should be on the water a few more days this week, so stay tuned.

Capt. Lyndon

On Wednesday, we started the day catching bait just west of Lockwood Folly Inlet, then headed to Frying Pan Tower to try and catch an African Pompano. No love. They seem to have disappeared. We then headed to the Southwest to bottom fish. We had a few silver snapper, b-liners, bass and triggerfish. It was not the best day I've had by a long shot, but the weather was perfect, and the water was so clear, we could see bottom in 80 ft. On thursday, we started the trip Spanish Mackerel fishing, and burnt them up for a little while, then headed Shark Fishing, finding much slower fishing, but we did release one small hammerhead. Due to Hurricane Bill, I'm off the water until Monday, when we are going to try to find some king mackerel and mahi-mahi.

Last thursday, we had a full day charter. We started at the 90's, with no luck. After that, we fished the 410/510, with a great bite of jumbo spanish, with a 12 between 4 and 5 lbs. We wanted to find kings, so we fished the Jungle next. In about an hour, we put 7 in the boat up to 15 lbs., and 2 mahi-mahi as well. All in all, not a bad day. Yesterday, we went spanish fishing on a half day trip. We managed 45 spanish, and one blacktip shark release. We also saw several king mackerel skying up through the spanish schools, which were about 3 miles off the beach. This is a good sign that the kings are here on the beach. Tommorow, I'm going grouper and african pompano fishing, and thursday, I'm going to king fish on the beach, so stay tuned.

The fishing is picking back up after the 3 week blow that we have had. The spanish are biting good again on the beach, with a few small king mackerel mixed in, with more kings and mahi from 65 ft. of water on out. As long as the water doesn't get to hot, the great fishing should continue, leading up to what I believe is going to be an amazing fall season. I say this due to the fact that the bait is as thick as I have seen, as well as the above-normal bite that we have had all summer.
