Sarah had booked me a few weeks ago to get out and do some fishing with her boyfriend Jeff. Being both from Canada it was great to be able to show them around Biscayne Bay. Looking for some action we hit one grass flat and stayed there for quite a while since the action was red hot on a number of species including bluefish, ladyfish, spinner shark, trout, snappers, jacks and a few other mystery fish we did not land. After a while we decided to change it up and hit a jetty where we had a few nice hits and Jeff was able to land a nice grouper. The next spot allowed us to catch a few mackerel before heading down to the finger channels. At the finger channels we caught a variety of snappers but the fishing proved to be slower than expected. Hitting one last spot prodiced a few quick fish before ending the day with a nice short run back to the marina and sore arms. Sarah had book me a few weeks ago they get out and do some fishing with from boyfriend Jeff. What a way to introduce someone to Miami!

After a few unplanned days off, more details to follow in the next week, Eric jumps aboard and says tarpon fishing but I want to catch fish. That is right up my alley! We gave tarpon fishing 45 minutes and while there were a few rollers we didn't get a bite right away and I started to feel the natives getting restless. Or was it me getting restless? Oh well, we make a sure run to a trout flat and spent the balance of the trip catching a bunch of seatrout and there were many more which either came off or we missed the strike. We even a a docile 1,200 lb visitor next to the boat a number of times. You really can't beat fishing in Miami, you never know what you'll run into.

On board today was Jerry Passaretti, one of the stars of NBC Sports "Shark Hunters", his son Justin and nephew Wyatt. Jerry simply wanted his kids to catch some fish and have a good time. Conditions were a bit limiting thanks to the steady 20 MPH north winds but the rods were bent often. Spot 1, they caught a number of jacks on bait and lures but no tarpon were around. Spot two had no tarpon but spot #3 Justin caught a nice trout, his first. We moved and caught a few more trout. The day ended in the finger channels once the tide changed and they continued to produce. Jerry took a nap on the bow of the boat but as soon as the action started, he joined Justin and Wyatt keeping the rods bent on every cast. They caught porgies, mangrove snappers, yellow tail snappers, small red grouper and black grouper. These guys were a lot of fun and the phrase that sticks with me is Jerry's "motherless fluke!" when he lost a few consecutive trout bites.

Miami really is an incredible place. Here is a picture of an octopus right at the boat ramp after I launched my boat. How wild is that?! Capt. Mo Estevez www.MiamiBoneFishing.com 786-853-1409
