Hello Fish Fans, The winds have been blowing from the west for almost the entire month of May slowing the fishing down to a crawl but it’s finally gettin better. The winds moved around to the northeast yesterday and it looks like we might be gettin back to the east/southeast breezes that normally flow this time of year. The winds shifting to normal and the new moon on the June 3rd should provide excellent Dolphin fishing for the next 2 or 3 weeks. The Sailfish are starting to show up for the summer run and Sailfishing should be good to excellent over the next 3 to 5 weeks. June might be my favorite month of the year for fishing off the coast of Stuart because of all the options. We’ll be running up the beach looking for Tarpon crashing bait and hooking up Tarpon between 75 and 150 pounds. Smaller Tarpon are beginning to move into the inlets and will be stacking up throughout the intercoastal waterway and the rivers. Just a few miles offshore we’ll be catchin Sailfish, Dolphin, Kingfish and Bonita in 75 to 150 feet of water. The deeper waters of the gulfstream in 800 to 1500 feet of water will be holding bigger packs of Dolphin and you never know you just might catch the grand-daddy of them all while you out there, the Blue Marlin. This past Saturday we had a Blue Marlin free jumping out in front of the boat that had to weigh at least 350 pounds. We tried to get him hooked-up for about 20 minutes but he dissapeared and a storm chased us out of the area. I’ll see him again one day and maybe next time we’ll get him hooked-up. The Tuna fishing for the next 6 to 8 weeks will be excellent and we’ll be catchin Yellowfin Tuna, Skip-Jack Tuna and Blackfin Tuna. I’ve decided not to raise our rates but the 800.00 day will be limited to about 10 miles offshore, 900.00 up to 20 miles and 1000.00 up to 30 miles offshore. The Tuna Trip will remain at 1300.00 a day. I’ll be back in about 10 days with another fishing report from Stuart Florida, Sailfsih Capital of the World. Catch you later, Capt. Wayne, Reel Busy Charters Let’s Go Catch’em !
