September is finally here and so are the king fish and bonitos.

Today we had Vance and his wife Jennifer and their two sons Spencer and Cameron.

We went right to trolling the reef with two planners running about 45 feet down and 3 baits skipping across the surface.

While the king bite was a bit slow today only catching one the bonitos kept us busy catching a box full of them.

Thanks again guys we enjoyed fishing with you and looking forward to fishing with you guys again.

Today we had Dan and Randy from Davie Florida and from Adventurer Florida got together and gathered up their kids Drew 7, Dean 5, Gabe 5, and Jaden also 7 years old for a morning of Deep Sea Fishing aboard the Hooked Up.

What a fun action packed morning it turned out to be. We started out trolling the reef catching king fish and bonitos. As we worked our way to the south we got to a big ship wreck that lay in about 110 feet of water on the bottom. We set out a live bonito with 3 big trouble hooks in him and from there it only took a fem min till BAM the water exploded and we were Hooked Up.

Line was peeling off the reel and this monster barracuda was jumping and everyone on the boat was hooting and yelling. What a blast. After a good 15 min back and forth fight at last up popped this 42 inch barracuda.

Way to go guys and thanks so much for a fun day on the water.

What a great action packed trip we had today with Micki, Howard, Daniel, Sam and Aaron all from Weston Florida.

We started out trolling the reef catching king fish and bonitos. Fishing was good but these guys were looking for some fish for dinner and king fish was just not at the top of their list of food fish.

So we did some deep drops trying to catch some good eating snappers but while there was a few there they just were not biting very well.

Ok time for plane C we set out our live baits hopping for a big bite. BIG BITE was just what we got a big sail fish was all over the bait and Aaron was all about it.

Aaron was in the chair in a flash but at first I think the sail fish was in control. This fish was all over the place at first dancing all over the surface than down deep just digging as if it was never going to stop peeling line off the reel. What a great back and forth tug a war but Aaron hung in there and at last got this nice 87 inch sail fish to the boat.

We got a quick measurement and a couple of photos and watched him swim away in good shape.

WAY TO GO AARON

Guys thanks again sooooo much for a fun fishing trip you guys are first class and we hope to see you again soon.
