Hello Fish Fans, I don’t ever remember a time when I was glad that I went a week without a fishing but this past week it hasn’t bothered me at all. I’m a fish-head and there’s nothing that I’d rather do but it’s too damn cold for this Florida Boy. Normally this time of year it’s about 50 degrees when we leave the dock and by 10am it’s in the upper 60’s but today it’s 32 degrees with a wind chill of 21 degrees and it’s not expected to get over 45 the whole day. There hasn’t been many boats out on the water but the ones that got out found the same great fishing that we had before the cold front. The heaviest concentration of Sailfish is still about 15 miles north of our inlet and there’s still plenty of Dolphin in-between the packs of Sailfish. The good news is we’ll start warming up and by mid-week the tempertures will be back to normal. The Yellowfin Tuna trips in March & April are starting to book so if you’re planning on getting in on the Yellowfin action again this year it’s time to start making arrangements. They’ll start showing up off the corner of the Bahama Bank mid to late February and by mid March Yellowfin Tuna 50 to 75 lbs will be teaming the waters off the Bahama Bank. The Sailfishing off the coast of Stuart Florida should continue to be excellent for the next several weeks so give us a call and we’ll hook you up. I’ll be back next week with another fishing report from Stuart Florida, Sailfsih Capital of the World. Catch you later, Capt. Wayne, Reel Busy Charters
