November 22, 2017 AM/PM Reports

AM My morning trip was with 9 year old Louie and his parents Craig and Andrea. Louie really wanted to catch a shark but with gorgeous conditions we opted to start our morning looking for tarpon. The search was brief since we didn't find any so off to sharks we went where they had a blast catching jacks as I dropped back a bait for big bull sharks. We hooked for big bulls and finally landed one I estimated at about 250lbs. Craig got a workout and Louie was in awe of that massive shark just a few feet from him. Way to go guys!
PM Italian brothers Roberto and Mateo were back on board. The last time we fished they caught a ton of trout on fly and spin and a shark and they wanted a repeat. They day went as planned except Mateo landed most of his fish, something that eluded him eluded last time. Capt.

November 16, 2017 Fishing Report

David had a big crew today so we fished in his boat, a 32' Intrepid. David, 6 teenagers and I got some bait and went searching for what the kids wanted, shark. Well, the kids caught a ton of jacks, some used for bait, and set out one line. After a while we saw one big bull shark come up and I pitched a bait to it. As expected, moments later the massive brown shape took the bait, the line came tight and we were on a sleighride. The fight lasted an hour and we had to deal with a couple of rain squalls. In the end the big bull cut us off on a crab trap bouy. After this we called it a day since the storms were rolling fast and steady. Capt.

Today I fished with Ed and his friend. We had some breeze and cloud cover but I was looking forward to a productive day on the water. Well, while we did catch fish, the day was slower than I would like. Capt. Mo Estevez www.MiamiBoneFishing.com 786-853-1409 Follow me on Instagram @MiamiBoneFishing

November 10, 2017 Report (Video!)

Pete had been texting me to see how the fishing has been for a few weeks and today was his day. He and his friend Gary got in my skiff and off we went. With a live well full of bait we stopped off at a trout flat where we got some trout and then moved on once it slowed down. Moving south we worked another flat but that one was slow so we changed it up early and scored. The guys ended up catching some jacks for bait and then hooking 12 bull sharks, with Gary catching his first shark. Way to go guys! Capt.

November 5, 2017 Report

Taking a break from working at the Broward Boat show I took the day instead to fish with local angler James. James wanted stuff to eat and some sport so off we went. The fishing was generally slow today with no tarpon and no fish at a few spots but then we switched it up and ended having a nice day with some snapper for dinner, hooking 3 barracudas and landing one and losing a nice shark.

November 2, 2017 Report (Video)

After a few days off and enjoying Halloween I was back on the water with Alain and Ethan. They wanted to catch lots of hard fighting fish so guess what we did? Yep, caught lots of hard fighting fish. This was a day of efficiency where we got bait and stayed in one spot for almost the entire trip of 6 hours. In those 6 hours they caught their fill of hard fighting jacks but that was just the beginning. The jacks served to fill the time between one of their favorite game fish, sharks, but not just any sharks, these were bull sharks and lots of them. The total tally for the day was an innumerable number of jacks, hooked 12-15 bull sharks landed two. We lost sharks to pulled hooks, broken lines, spit hooks, straightened hooks and well, Murphy's Law. We had a great day and the weather was awesome as is typical for November in Miami. Capt.
