Key Largo offshore report by Capt. Jim Mulcahy

"Offshore fishing report"
by Capt. George Clark,
Rodeo Charters, 1-305-522-2638

Big grouper

November 2009

The Mahi are starting to get back to normal. Lately the dolphins have really been on a mission to eat every small fish in the ocean. The only problem with that is there has been a tremendous amount of food for them. Even small patches of grass have held tons of tiny bait fish and migrating dolphin are using them like drive in windows, stopping off to grab a snack then continuing south bound. Look for any areas where the Sargasso is pushed together and watch for bird activity there.

Like I said though, these fish have easy feeding opportunities and may not like what you offer them. I would take some time to either catch a few live baits on your way out or even purchase a few at your local bait store.

Another thing to note is make sure you bring several types of bait ranging from squid and Bonito to even live shrimp and pilchards if you can. It never hurts to have a buffet when fish get finicky. Another trick which gets lethargic fish fired up is throwing buck tail jigs in front of traveling fish and working it as fast as you can. Try an ounce and a half blue and white hook up lure jig with a sliver of a belly strip and you can't miss.

We have also been finding a steady supply of skip jack tuna and black fins also. Work around 250 to 300 feet with a spread of small lures fished way back and you will get bites for sure. Reef fishing on the other hand has been ok too.

YT snapper are steady while grays are doing very good at night. Find the hard bottom in 50 to 60 feet and burn some oily chum. The grays are swarming after dark and range from 2 to 5 pounds on the average.

Back offshore, I have had several reports of hungry bill fish. Capt. Martin Formento had a double Blue Marlin this week. One fish ate a schoolee dolphin they were winding in while the other blue piled on a trolled rigger bait. One fish was 400 pounds and ate thru the smaller leader pretty quick but the other fish was 200 pounds and they were able to get a release after a lengthy fight. My mate Erik Wantuk was out with his father and family and also enjoyed a good fight with a chunky white marlin. So don't count out the bill fish right now either. Get out there and enjoy the weather.

Tight Lines,
Capt. George Clark Jr.

Mahi in the day, Swords at night -

November 2009 -

Well, this is the time of year every offshore fisherman in the Florida Keys has been waiting for. The Dolphin bite has been excellent. We've been catching plenty of schoolie size Dolphin in the 5 to 10 lb. range with some fish over 20 lbs. the past few weeks.

Most of the Dolphin we've been finding have been migrating fish with Tuna birds working over them. Using binoculars, we can spot working birds up to 2 miles away. We like to troll artificial baits around the birds while also looking from the tower at swimming fish where we cast live bait in front of the fish. Once a couple of fish have been hooked we wait for the rest of the school to follow in behind the others. The anglers can then start casting baits at the other fish.

It works well to rotate each fish to the boat taking one while keeping one hooked up at all times. This helps to keep the other fish near the boat. It is quite common to catch 20 to 50 fish in just one school. Last Saturday my anglers Tim, Tyler, and Taylor Dougherty from Pembroke Pines Florida went Dolphin fishing with us. We ran twenty miles offshore and then started looking for birds.

We found alot of birds working, but they were following little bonita not Dolphin. Finally after a couple of hours of looking we found our first school of Dolphin. It was a decent school of fish and my anglers ended up catching 30 fish. We quickly reset all our lines and found another school of Dolphin right away. They caught 20 fish in that school and limited out. The last couple of days in Key Largo the fishing has been great and we can usually count on good Dolphin fishing through August.

The Swordfish have been on the prowl at night during the month of June. We fish for Swordfish about 20 miles offshore so it requires calm weather. Fortunaley the whole month of June has seen excellent weather with winds less than 10 miles an hour almost every night.

One trip 2 weeks ago we ended up landing a 350 pounder after a 2 1/2 hour battle. The fish ate a whole rigged dead squid about 300 ft under the surface. We like to fish for Swordfish using 80lb. standup tackle. We use rod belts and kidney harnesses so holding the rod is much easier. Swordfishing is good all year round, however the summer months have consistentley calmer weather making it easier planning a trip.

Tight Lines,
Captain Jim
