Paddy and his son Rory were recommended to me by a friend of his back in the U.K that has fished with me before so it was cool to finally get to meet them. He told me he wanted to catch a few fish with his son and have a good time. Well, at the end of the trip he told me he caught more fish today than he had his whole life combined. I love that! We mixed it up with a bunch of different species on the flats, wrecks and in the channels with sharks, barracudas, snapper, jacks and more.

Alex is always welcomed on my boat and we fished again today with his friend Ali who is in medical school with him. After catching some bait and fishing for barracudas it was time to hit the shark fishing and get Ali on one. She had never fished before and she was awesome! The total was four hookups and one landed but that one made the trip, or was it Ali who made the trip with her toughness and hilarious commentary during her epic shark battle? This was an awesome day! Somehow the pics and videos got deleted from my phone. What a bummer. Capt. Mo Estevez www.miamiboneFishing.com 786-853-1409 Follow me on Instagram @MiamiBoneFishing

When are tough conditions the perfect conditions? When you have a west wind, low tide and bonefish on the mind. With fly rod in hand, David from NY jumped aboard and we worked a leeward shoreline that was been producing for me for years with today being no exception. David had a bunch of shots at waking schools of bonefish but things didn't work out as the tide kept rising and the fish more difficult to spot towards the end of the trip. There were however a few casts he made that should've produced fish but the bones never did see the fly. Capt.

Today I was back on David's boat, his new 24 foot Pathfinder. There was a brisk wind that kept us on the search for fish as we tried to stay comfortable and dry. The plan was to hit a few of the finger channels and we did where we caught some fish but nothing to write home about. So, we hit the flats for sharks and hooked four but lost them all. So, we lost to the sharks 4-0.

December 9, 2019 Report (Bonefish Video)

Today I had the pleasure of fishing with 84 year old Diane and her fishing partner Santiago from Argentina. We started off with some shots at a couple of permit and then started to get more more shots at bonefish. Eventually we had one eat but didn't get hooked so we continued until I spotted 3 fish coming in at our 11 o'clock about 60'. I called it out to Santiago and he made a perfect cast. I instructed him to let the fly sink then yelled "strip, strip, strip!" As he did one of the bonefish peeled off from the school, tailed on the fly, missed it tracked it again, tailed again on the fly and finally got hooked. During the long run I saw a shark move in so I had to stop recording video and chase the bonefish with the motor in order to make noise and spoke away the shark. However, something happened that I thought was truly amazing, as I chased the bonefish down all of a sudden he stopped running and the line started to take a weird angle right to the bottom. Lo and behold the bonefish had lodged himself between a coral head and the bottom seeking protection from the shark. Some encouragement later the bonefish took off and we got him in the net for some Santiago's biggest bonefish to date. I can tell you this fish did more for me than for some Santiago as I've had a few trips already where we've had tons of shots at bonefish and some permit and can't seem to connect. Well after this one I will be sleeping well tonight!

December 8, 2019 Report

Today I had a very cool trip with Stan and his twelve-year-old grandson who just wanted to catch fish. We had once again just perfect weather conditions so we caught some bait and ran to a shallow ship wreck where they caught 6 different species. We switched gears and tried to get some barracudas only to lose a nice one on the initial jump and the shark fishing proved to be slow today.

November 30, 2019 Report

I hadn't fished with Glenn for a month or so and he was back in town. Since he was fishing solo we targeted bonefish. The morning was red hot with ideal conditions and tons of shots at bonefish and a big permit. As the morning progressed a cold front started to move in and the visibility got worst so we ended the day fishing a shallow flat but no one was home.
