Happy New Year Fish Fans ! We start out the new year with a cold front as brutal as I can remember in recent years. Evening tempertures in the low 30’s and highs in the upper 50’s for the next 3 days will have the Sailfish on the run for sure. The Sailfishing due east of Stuart has been fair to good but 15 to 20 miles north has been as good as it gets. The 1/2 day trips closer to the inlet produced a few Dolphin and at least one Sailfish on most of the trips. The full day trips to the north produced a few dolphin and 5 or more Sailfish on every trip. The Dolphin over the last week were smaller than we had been seeing but as the full moon begins to shade the dolphin fishing should be good to excellent once again. This cold front will get the Sailfish on the move and for the next few weeks the Sailfishing off the coast of Stuart will be as good as it gets anywhere in the world. There’s been 1 or 2 boats with 10 or more Sailfish releases everyday and if you want to catch’em now’s the time. Sailfishing is the main attraction this time of year but we’re catching plenty of Dolphin and Kingfish as well. I’ll be back next week with another fishing report from Stuart Florida, Sailfish Capital of the World. Catch you later, Capt. Wayne, Reel Busy Charters
