November 7, 2019 Report

I was part of a 5 boat corporate charter today from 1-5pm and I was itching to show the guys a good time and get home since I'm leaving for New Orleans tonight to fly fish for big redfish in the marsh. After catching bait, 4 of the 5 boats rode together to the marina for pick up and then every one went their separate ways. I stayed close to the marina and looked for tarpon which were MIA but in the process the guys Scott and Dan caught their fill of jacks on bait and top water then we missed two bull shark bites before calling it a day.

Wow, fishing has been so good! Chris is a local client of mine and he wanted to make sure his grand daughter Blue caught fish today. hadn't seen Blue in a while so it as good to see her again and with the well loaded with live bait, it was going to be good. Well, one spot is all it took for Blue and Chris to get their fill of fish as the action was on from the moment we got there. Chris was able to take home some fresh fish dinner and Blue caught a giant yellow jack. What a great trip! Capt.

November 4 and 5, 2019 Report

I had Gary from the U.K. for two days and the goal was the same each day, target bonefish on fly then switch off to catch other stuff. Both mornings were tough bonefishing with just a shot or two each day but with a live well full of live pilchards it was game on for everything else. Gary caught a ton of fish on bait and lures including stub mutton snappers and big grouper. It was awesome!

November 1, 2019 Report (Tarpon Video!)

What a way to start November! I had Jill back on board today but her husband Bob was back at the hotel attending a conference. Well, well, well he would definitely regret that! Jill had caught plenty of fish two days ago with me and today she wanted to target tarpon. So, the hunting began! The first spot had a bunch of tarpon with lock jaw so we changed it up. Spot two had a bunch of fun jacks but we only saw one tarpon roll. Hmm, weird. Yeah, ok check this out. As we fished, my engine started going up all on it's own due to a trim switch short. This was not good! Well, the engine trimmed itself all the way up and a few minutes alter a 120lb tarpon eats Jill's bait and is off at full speed as my engine won't trim down and I can't chase it. Geeze! Somehow the I was able to trim down the motor and chase the fish but I had to keep my finger on the trim switch in order to prevent it from going up again. So, a 120lb tarpon going nuts, Jill on the fight, I'm trying to steer, record video and keep my finger on the trim switch. Once the fish settled down I turned off the battery switch and got the fish. Wow, awesome fish, awesome angler and it's had to beat the drama of today. I think I aged 5 years this morning!......

October 31, 2019 Report

Happy Halloween! Well, there were tricks and treats for Mike and Hank today on our afternoon trip. We started chasing bonefish and permit on the flats but with yet another week of king tides, the water level was really high and the fishing was tough. Towards the end of the trip they decided to change it up and with only 40 minutes left in the trip I saw some pelicans diving and we hit jack pot, throwing the cast net once and getting more bait than I needed. Going straight to a reliable spot, it didn't disappoint as the fish were busting and destroying the live chum I was tossing back. The guys caught a bunch of fish but at the very end Hank hooks a monster and after a chase he lands a monster yellow jack. Wow!

Bob and Jill were a blast to fish with and they were definitely competitive. Talking smack to each other was priceless as they kept the rods bent on mutton snappers, mangrove snappers, yellow jacks, trigger fish, big blue runners and a few fish we lost. The action has continued to be on fire and they definitely were having a great time! Capt. Mo Estevez 786-853-1409 www.MiamiBoneFishing.com Follow me on Instagram @MiamiBoneFishing

Phillip and his very cool 10 year old boy Max got here from the U.K. to visit and Max being an avid angler wanted to head out. Well, all it took was one spot and Max got his fill. It was awesome hearing him say :dad, this is the best trip ever!". They catch a bunch of species and the action was red hot for snappers, yellow jacks and more.
