Some pretty good action off Jupiter Florida past week.I had a number of sail fish bites trolling dead baits from my 23 ft cc.The big problem this time of year is getting outside in a small boat and hoping for lighter winds. I managed to get off shore a couple days ago and had a nice double sail bite.I was all alone and the next thing ,I had a sail on each rod.I worked both fish and I managed to get one to the boat.Lots of fun and warm in the sun.150 ft to 200 ft range ,go gettem  | ||

| My friend's uncle that lives and fishes out of Port St. Lucie (used to fish with him up here before he moved) caught a sailfish that was 3# shy of the FL state record in the past couple weeks. Waiting for some $59 flights to show up online on the right days, and I'll be heading down with my buddy to fish with him.....

My son and I had a ball catching sails off Miami in January. It amazes me the different tactics used and the charters in southern florida all use 100% live bait (goggle eyes, pilchards, herring) and the more north you go the more you see dead bait being used such as ballyhoo At one time my son and i had 4 sails on at once using kites, it was insane but we managed 3 of the 4. People underestimate how hard they fight especially on light tackle. Amazing fish tight lines | ||
