Fort Lauderdale fishing trips erratic action by Rick Brady (1/07/2016)
[Fort Lauderdale,FL] Erratic action. Not what anyone wants to hear but that is what has been happening offshore on our fort Lauderdale fishing trips. We pick away at them but the fishing is just plain erratic right now. As you can see by the picture(s) we have managed some nice fish but it can be a struggle for sure. Some sites only allow a single picture but you can see all the photos with a report on our Facebook page. Same rhetoric, just more pictures.

Fort Lauderdale fishing report by Rick Brady (12/23/2015)
[Fort Lauderdale,FL] Mother nature is imposing her will upon us the last several days with scattered showers and a bit more wind than we would like (canceled our trips Sunday), but today and tomorrow are forecast to be more pleasant. It's not that the sun is absent as there are periods of clear skies, but the norm has been cloudy.

SW FL-Bonita Beach: Great Grouper & Snapper Fishing! by Dave Hanson (12/17/2015)
[Bonita Beach,FL] The red grouper bite has been hot, even as close in as 12 miles. It's like they know they are out of season, can't be kept, and have nothing to lose! There have also been a few gags biting, and lots of really nice lane snapper to 16 inches.

Fishing trips in Ft. Lauderdale by Rick Brady (12/14/2015)
[Fort Lauderdale,FL] The wind is once again up a blowing and has resulted in some good catches on our fishing trips here in Ft. Lauderdale. We are seeing good numbers of Mahi-Mahi along with Sailfish, Kings and some scattered Wahoo as well. Seems the day of fishing is very much tied in with the wind, and when it slows the catching backs off a bit. But we are seeing reasonable action with that uptick in bites when it begins to blow.
