White Marlin and a Thresher Shark were caught this week will be mounted by Gray's Taxidermy

Fishing Fort Lauderdale this week has been excellent; all species of fish including a White Marlin and a Thresher Shark were caught this week. 

Allison and Tyler Fawber from Virginia stopped by the charter boat Happy Day Today to get some information about a fishing charter.  After boarding the boat and being pleased with what they saw, they decided right then to charter the Happy Day Today along with the Topshotfishing team for a deep sea sport fishing charter. With time on their hands, I suggested they visit the Holiday Park off of Route 27, 20 minutes from the boat, for air boat rides and to check out the alligators.  The following morning with blue skies, winds out of the east, southeast 7-10 mph, temperatures in the mid 80’s, we left the dock and 20 minutes later we had lines in the water at the sea buoy which sits at the drop off in 120 ft. of water off of Fort Lauderdale FL.

Both Tyler and Allison spoke of their air boat rides the day before and seeing the beautiful everglades and the wild life, including alligators.  We had two plainers for deep lines down and four surface baits.  I headed towards our artificial wrecks, which always produces fish.  The bait fish congregate around these artificial wrecks and in return the predators are there feeding on them.  Allison and Tyler kept taking turns being the angler catching Kingfish and at times two fish on at once.
