May 12, 2015 Report (Bonefish)

Local resident and regular client Steve hopped aboard for round 2 of tarpon fishing. Although there were fish around they weren't feeding so off to the flats we went trying to hide from the 20MPH winds with fly rod in hand. I pulled us in to the leeward side of a key that I like for bonefish and sure enough, here they came! School after school came through some of the schools were our average fish in the 8lb range with some a bit bigger but there were big schools of small fish in the 1-2lb range. I can't remember the last time I saw so many little bones. What a great sign for our fishery! On one of the schools Steve made a cast into the middle of them and in short order he was hooked up. Releasing the little bonefish as changed strategy and targeted some mutton snapper for dinner and mission was accomplished, bonefish on fly and fresh mutton snapper fillets for the table. Can't beat that!

May 11, 2015 Report AM & PM Reports

AM Reports Matt and his 8 year old daughter Dianna jumped aboard for some tarpon fishing and smaller game for Dianna. Not long after our tarpon fishing efforts Matt hooks one in the 100 plus pound range. After an hour and 5 minute fight the tarpon breaks us off. Urgh! Dianna however was well pleased at this calamity as now she could catch fish after all. She asked if now we could "fish for real fish"! LOL Once she got a rod in her hand she was on fish on every cast until her hands hurt. What a blast with these guys.

PM Report In the afternoon Frank and Liz jumped aboard and wanted to catch some fish and have a good time. We started fishing for trout where Liz shook off the rust of not fishing for a while and started to catch trout after trout while out fishing Frank. We had a blast and I really enjoyed these folks.

May 7, 2015 Report

Local resident Carolyn and her son Jack jumped aboard for a tarpon trip. Fishing was generally slow but we found tarpon in two different spots and boy were they there! They were rolling, cruising and free jumping but in spite of our efforts they had lock jaw. At one point they were so thick under the boat that the water went from green to gray as a mass of tarpon swam and hung out right under the boat. We tried everything we could to get a hook up and get Carolyn her first tarpon to no avail. We switched to trout and they caught a number of trout including three nice ones for dinner along with a nice mangrove. Capt. Mo Estevez www.MiamiBoneFishing.com 786-853-1409

May 6, 2015 Report

From Philly on a business trip came Mike and Chris and took advantage of the day for a day on the water. Yesterday the weather was absolutely brutal but today was a different story. No cooperating tarpon around but we caught a number of trout and had a blast with these crazy guys!

May 3, 2015 Report

Mike and his wife came down from Canada and the original plan was to hit the flats in the search for bonefish. However, with over 20 MPH winds the original plan was scrapped and we took advantage of the lighter than usual boat traffic and spent an hour tarpon fishing. While the tarpon fishing was slow we switched to fishing for sea trout and had a blast catching a number of them.

Jeff and his wife were aboard today for a laid back day of fishing on Saturday morning and that's exactly what we did. Beating the weekend boat traffic we fished the grass flats for sea trout using artificial lures and kept the rods bent while enjoying the great weather. Capt.

May 1, 2015 Report

Rob and his dad climbed aboard for a full day of tarpon fishing. The day started promising with lots of rolling tarpon at spot 1 but nothing I tried could get them to eat. We ended the day covered in rolling, cruising and free jumping tarpon without a bite. What a frustrating day! Capt. Mo Estevez www.MiamiBoneFishing.com 786-853-1409
