The Sailfish are FINALLY here (11/30/2006)
[Fort Lauderdale,FL] The sailfish bite was hot this week. Finally some good action on sails out there. Well guys, although in the past few weeks we've been catching a sailfish here, a sailfish there, they haven't been biting as good as they usually do. This week the sailfishing was off the scale. Every day this week we have been seeing multiple sailfish on the kite and on the troll. Even the drift boat has been catching sails this week using dead ballyhoo.

November Fishing So Far... (11/06/2006)
[Fort Lauderdale,FL] Guys, the wind was howling this week so we didn't go out as much as we usually do. We still pocked our noses out there a few times. The Swordfishing the other night was phenomenal. Everyone that went out there caught swordies, and mutliple ones at that. Our charter boat went out on a swordfish run the other night and was 4/7. It was a really crazy night of fishing. One of the best swordfishing trips I've seen in a while.
