School size dolphin limit + (6 to 8 lbs), released 5 kingfish up to 15 #, several bonito. The northwest wind didn’t swing north making for an ignorant trip in from the stream. Dolphin and […]

Limit of school size 5 to 12 lb dolphin, blackfin, and double-header sailfish. Sunday was on fire at the edge of the stream.

There was a well-defined edge on the stream Sunday morning. Larger dolphin in the 15 lb range finally woke up at 10 AM. The edge kind of fizzled out by noon. The barracuda seam to […]

Calm seas finally. Lots of barracuda, bonita, small sharks and few smaller dolphin here and there. Not many weeds and no hard edge between 160 ft to 200 ft.

Sat 28. No real edge for the blue water; just a gradual transition. Anyway, I ended up feeding lots of cuda / small sharks and with a 50# sailfish caught dragging ballyhoo in 105 feet, due east of the port. I had a small cobia following the boat and trying to eat the red downrigger release! I finally got him to eat a cocktail. The water was sloppy for a 15′ boat.

Stay Shallow and Fish Deep! Early in the morning there isn’t really any weed line until you hit 170 ft. Once out there the weeds are too thick for trolling. By about noon, blue water and few weeds appear in 90 to 115 ft of water; this will likely change next weekend because it depends on the tides. This is your best bet for dolphin and kings. 90% of the fish I have been catching take the downrigged bait 30 ft behind the cannonball and 40 feet of rigger cable out with an 8lb ball, so down 20′. I don’t think skirt color matters too much but I like coke or blue and clear. Stinger hooks are a must.

22 miles east of port cannaveral in 114 feet. Trolling with downrigger out 40 feet at 7 mph. Ballyhoo with "Coke" skirt 30 feet from cannonball.
