December 28, 2019 AM & PM Report

AM I hadn't fished with Glenn and his boys for years and today I realized the boys were now men. Wow! The day had some tough conditions for us but they caught mackerel and a few other fish but the weather had us blocked in unable to make long runs to try out different areas. PM The afternoon trip was with Craig and his son and the weather had cleared by now allowing us to make a bit of a run and hit some spots where they guys stayed busy keeping the rods bent and had a great time.

Just when everything was going well, this trip happened. I fished with Kivi and his son in law today, both really cool guys and in spite of my best efforts the fishing was slow. While the guys caught fish, it was nothing to write home about. How disappointing! Capt. Mo Estevez www.miamiboneFishing.com 786-853-1409 Follow me on Instagram @MiamiBoneFishing

Man, Alec is a machine that won't give me a day off! LOL Alec and I fish often and since he is a local he doesn't miss much fishing time but today he brought his friend, ex Navy sailor, Joe. The goal was to get on some fish and I did just that but I had bigger plans for Joe as he lost a big barracuda next to the boat and landed a few more fish including a nice lemon shark. When the tide was perfect we hit a flat where Joe caught his first bonefish, one of two he hooked that day! But I will admit, it was not easy as the wind was howling peaking at 27 MPH and intermittent rain. But, Joe got his bonefish and that is all that matters. Congrats Joe and thank you for your service!

Merry Christmas eve! I got a 6 hour charter in today with Mike and his wife Betsy and these guys were great! The conditions were tough as they have been the last week or so with high winds and cloud cover but we were bonefishing on fly and found an area that was in the lee and low water. Well, there were plenty of shots at schools of bonefish but we couldn't connect on fly. The last few minutes of the trip Mike switched to spin and a lure and hooked a monster fish that spit the hook after a few long runs. What a heart break! Capt.

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. Mo Estevez www.miamiboneFishing.com 786-853-1409 Follow me on Instagram @MiamiBoneFishing
