Well, here we go with Paul and Will from NY. These guys are great and they are always a blast to fish with. Last year Will landed a massive bull shark with me and this time i had tarpon on my mind after getting them warmed up with some smaller species. I found a bunch of tarpon rolling but they were being tarpon and not eating but persistence paid off with a bent rod and screaming drag and after a nice fight Paul got his first permit. Nice, congrats guys!

Dropping off my morning guys I picked up Barry and headed for an afternoon trip. Again, I had tarpon on my mind but only after Barry caught a bunch of snappers and with the tide nearing the end I ran and hit a different tarpon spot from the morning trip and fished a school of tarpon. Well, a massive permit beat the tarpon to the crab and Barry fought the monster permit for about five minutes until the hook pulled. NOOOOOO! Capt.

Man have I been busy! Today I had two trips and my morning trip was with an awesome angler and client, Maria. She can throw a fly and we decided to keep the fly rod bent and go for bonefish in two days when we are fishing again. After hitting a couple of spots that were slow I took no chances and his a wreck where Maria had a blast catching 6 or 8 species on fly. So cool!

My afternoon trip was with John and Leo from Canada. The goal was to get them on some fish and keep Leo busy. Well, we fished two spots that produced and we kept Leo busy, and John too! The last spot held some jacks and after catching a few smaller ones on lure John landed a slob jack that kept him busy for a while.

Will and I have fished a bunch before and then he moved to NY but he was back and as soon as he knew he was coming back he called me up and booked a trip. Will just wanted to relax and catch a few fish but with the tarpon starting to move in I had other plans. We hit a few spots and caught snappers, jacks and mutton snappers. But, now it was time. With the tide at the right stage I took him to a spot that has been holding tarpon and sure enough, they were there. We floated back two baits and let the do their thing and we waited, then it happened. I saw a slight movement of the rod tip, and then it doubled over and Will was on! Fifteen minutes later we landed a monster permit for Will and called it a day as we ran back to the marina engulfed in permit glory!

Eric joined me today for a 4 hour trip to keep the rods bent and we did. Finding snappers and jacks we went through almost all the bait in short order and caught some on lures. Wow, this trip went by so fast! Capt. Mo Estevez www.miamiboneFishing.com 786-853-1409 Follow me on Instagram @MiamiBoneFishing

I had a blast with twin brothers Brian and Ryan. They wanted to mix it up between fly fishing and spin fishing so we did just that. Starting with bonefish they had a few shots but not many so we changed it up and hit a wreck where they caught a bunch of fish on spin but they wouldn't hit a fly. At the end of the day we had a blast, the guys talked smack to each other and kept the rods bent.

February 14, 2020 Report (Bonefish Video!)

Wow, it's Valentines Day and the weather could not have been more perfect! Mike was celebrating his birthday today by going fishing and I had the pleasure of being his captain for a full day of bonefish on fly. The first spot as loaded with fish but the tide was extremely low so after having to get off the boat and push a few times the party started and it was school after school for about an hour. After a few close calls but no hookups we hit another spot and it was game on! Fishing a great winter time spot there were more bonefish and permit than you could count and here is where Mike got two bonefish on fly plus snappers, yellow jacks, look downs, blue runners a shot at tarpon and plenty of shots at permit. What a great day with a great guy!

I get so many cool people on my boat and today I had a really cool guy, Bernard from France with fly rod in hand. We searched all 8 hours for bonefish and they were MIA, this is a very rare occurrence but it happened today. So, in order to break it up we fished shallow ship wreck and Bertrand had a blast catching a bunch of species on fly. The trip ended with more searching for bonefish to no avail. WHat a tough bonefish day but Bertrand was great!
