Well, today our hopes were riding high as we boarded David's 32' Intrepid in order to go offshore and look for dolphin. After loading up with live bait we ran out to blue water under perfect conditions. We ran all over the place looking for weedlines, floating objects, birds, bait and zilch! I decided to drift and found it difficult to find current. Everything from 80'-1000' of water was dead. Yikes! Heading back inshore it turned out to be equally dead and seeing no other boats hook anything around us whether offshore or inshore we deided to lick out wounds and call it a day. Capt.

Chris and his client Stephen climbed aboard this morning for a half day trip around the bay. After buying some bait we headed to spot that has been pretty good but it proved slow. We plugged along to other spots where they caught barracuda, snappers, jacks and trout and wrapped up the day on a nice black tip shark. Capt.

Rod had booked me quite a few weeks ago and today was our day to fish. We met up at 10 am because of massive traffic that caused me to be on the road for 4 hours before getting to the marina. Ouch! Once Rod and his son Drew jumped in the boat, the day got better. These were two god guys and off we went to tarpon fish. We found tarpon, not many but we did, but they weren't in the mood. Well, the sharks were and so we live baited some jacks, had a blast with them and then used them for bait. We hooked 3 big bull sharks and landed one about 150lbs. It was good to finally get off the road, have a good day on the water and fish with two good guys. Capt. Mo Estevez www.MiamiBoneFishing.com 786-853-1409 Follow me on Instagram @MiamiBoneFishing

August 21, 2017 Report (Video!)

I had my reservations about fishing today because of the lunar eclipse but turns out I was surprised. Paul and his son Thomas jumped aboard again and this time they brought their friend Steve. We started tarpon fishing and that proved to be slow as well as trout fishing but it had been like that for a few days already so I don't think it was a product of the eclipse. We wrapped up the trip at another spot where we again caught a ton of hard fighting jacks and used one for bait. As soon as the chunk of jack hit the water it was engulfed by a big bull shark and Paul was on. Thirty minutes later we got the release on a nice 200lb bull shark right as it was time to head in. Not a bad way to fish on a lunar eclipse!

Today I had a great trip with Paul and his little 10 year old boy Thomas. We started off getting some live pilchards and then hitting a tarpon spot but although they were there they were not interested in feeding. Wearing thin on Thomas's patience tarpon fishing we hit another spot and absolutely crushed the Jacks. First fish of the trip was about a 5 to 7 lb Jack and next to the boat a giant Barracuda came and ate it up leaving only the bloody head. Quickly I put the bloody head on a big rod with some wire and dropped it behind the boat in the strong current and just let it sit. As we continued to catch jacks and watching them blow up on our bait the rod went off and we were on. After 150 almost 200 yd run we had to chase the big bull shark down and 10 minutes later the hook was straightened out. Bull sharks 1 us-0. We went back and repeated the process continued to catch Jacks and within minutes we were hooked up to another big bull shark which ended up breaking us off. Well as they say third time's a charm and that was the case as once again a few minutes later we were back on a big bull shark and this one we got to the boat, in the hundred fifty plus pound range. We wrapped up the day continuing to crush the Jacks and absolutely wore out Thomas. He had a blast so did we and we are scheduled to fish again on Monday. Capt.

Regular client and super nice guy Bill Hayes jumped aboard today with Eli Whiteside from the SF Giants. We tried tarpon fishing but missed a bite and that was the end of that. We tried a few more spots and had a blast catching jacks. We used some of the jacks for bait and chum and hit a shark spot where Eli got a solid hit but the shark never did get hooked. We cut the trip short so the guys could get ready for their game against the Marlins.

August 12, 2017 Fishing Report

Local and regular client George brought his two little boys along again today Patrick and Evan. We started off fishing for trout since George wanted to have his boys catch a few and we missed a few bites but trout fishing was generally slow. I decided to make a run down to South Biscayne Bay where we fished one more spot and that one proved to be productive. The boys had their fill with Mangrove snappers and we had a big Barracuda come in a few times but we were too slow to react. However, a school of big bar jacks came through and George hooked up and after a long run, the fish broke us off on structure. Capt.
