ladypamela2 | Summertime is the best time of year for action on the reefs in Fort Lauderdale. The King Mackerel, Bonito and Blackfin Tuna are biting nicely and as far as wreck fishing goes, hello Grouper, Snapper & Cobia!
Scott Feldman, Frank Francisco and Darren O’Day of the Texas Rangers baseball team joined their two friends aboard the Lady Pamela II for a 5 hr fishing trip in Fort Lauderdale. Fishing was so slow; we tried our hardest to put our anglers on some fish, but if they are not hungry they are not going to eat. Finally, towards the end of the trip we landed a 60 lb Warsaw Grouper and one King Mackerel. They could feed the team with that Grouper.
The Lady Pamela and the Lady Pamela II headed out deep sea fishing with the Eeatin family and the Bowman family. The fleet left the dock at 1 PM sharp and the fish ate immediately. The Kingfish and Bonito plucked the baits, allowing both families to catch a least a half dozen fish. After we nailed the Kingfish and Bonito on the troll, we dipped into our live well full of Google-Eyes and Blue Runners. We dropped our live bait in 80 – 300 ft of blue water on the wreck to see if we could attract a Grouper, a Wahoo, some Tuna and maybe even some Snapper. The Lady Pamela got to pull two Amberjack out of the wreck while the Lady Pamela II got to tug on a 70lb Warsaw Grouper. After we caught the Grouper, we gave the Lady Pamela the good news. Shortly after, they dropped a live Speedo bait on the wreck and put their anglers on a nice size Warsaw Grouper.
Channing Crowder of the Miami Dolphins joined Captain Paul and myself for a deep sea fishing adventure in Fort Lauderdale aboard the Lady Pamela II. Once we poked out of Port Everglades, we headed north and immediately started catching some Blackfin Tunas, King Mackerel and 10 Bonito on the troll. Once we got to the steaple, we put out a big, bloody Shark bait down below to hook Channing up with a big fish. After 25 minutes of fishing and not catching, we were hooked. Channing won the battle with the Bull Shark while suspended over the water in our articulating fighting chair; it was exciting just watching! After Channing caught his Game Shark, we expertly released him back into the blue for a future fight. We trolled our way back to Fort Lauderdale and ended the day with a nice Mahi-Mahi (Dolphin fish) and 10 more Bonito. Fishing was awesome today.
Tight Lines!
