Fishing around the cold fronts has proven successful for many anglers fishing aboard the Lady K this past week. Catches like this football sized Black-fin Tuna and plenty of King Mackerel have been keeping anglers warm with excitement. Look for the Tuna when schools of Bonito or False Albacore start hitting baits. Fresh grilled tuna or sushi rolls for lunch, a perfect end to a wonderful morning.
Plenty of Porgy species have been coming aboard the Lady K this week. Most Porgies will be caught by anglers using bottom rigs and cut squid but every once in a while extra-large fish like the seven pound Jolt-head Porgy pictured above will surprise an angler by feasting on their sardine. A tasty addition to the frying pan.
Both the morning and afternoon trips have been producing action from King Mackerel (l) with an occasional keeper sized African Pompano coming aboard. Over the next couple of months the Pompano should start increasing size. African Pompano are a specie of jack also known as Trevally. They are hard-hitting fish which make lighting fast runs to the bottom in search of obstructions in order to break off an anglers line. They will hit small jigs, sardines, squid and live shrimp.
Cobia continue to come aboard the Lady K like this 30 pound fish caught during the morning at the end of the week. Plenty of smaller fish are also being released which shows great promise for a spring season this year. Cobia love eating crabs but will also feast on sardines, cut squid fished on bottom rigs, jigs or feathers and other artificial lures.
This huge Unicorn Filefish gave a visiting angler from Minnesota quite a surprise. The firm, white meat makes these fish excellent table fare and comparable to Flounder. Filefish can be caught using bottom rigs and cut squid for bait. So after a day at the South Florida Fair, plan a relaxing trip fishing aboard the Lady K . Its family fishing fun for everyone !

This 41 pound King Mackerel ate a large sardine for VIP angler Lee while the Lady K was drifting over the shallow section of the reef during a recent trip week. It is apparent that the rough conditions with brought plenty of Mahi Mahi also stirred up and moved around some large fish. Most of the King Mackerel caught this time of year are generally 5 to 8 pounds yet large fish like this trophy can be found in the mix.

Robbie displays a nice 20 pound Cobia that was caught during a rough afternoon trip aboard the Lady K.

Yellow-tail Snapper to two pounds, large Gray Triggerfish to 6 pounds, King Mackerel to 6 pounds, Rainbow Runners to 10 pounds and some assorted reef fish made their way into the cooler. There were also three Cobia caught and released. A possible sign of things to come?

The afternoon trip gave VIP anglers Danny (l) and JR (r) a golden opportunity to land these nice Gag (Gray) Grouper. The fish both ate dead sardines spooled along the bottom. A few more nice grouper managed to elude anglers by rocking them up in the reef. The Lady K also caught some more nice Mutton and Yellow-tail Snapper along with a few jumbo sized Gray Triggerfish.
There are still Mahi Mahi and King Mackerel coming aboard the Lady K this week along with an assortment of bottom fish, Grouper, Triggerfish and Snapper. So plan a trip today aboard the newly updated Lady K !
A nice pair of 30 plus pound Amberjack will tax your tackle and give your muscles a good work out. Mark landed these heavyweights during an afternoon trip aboard the Lady K and while fishing sardines near the bottom.
Rob nabbed this big Amberjack also while fishing a sardine near the bottom over a local area reef and finally broke in his new fishing rod on a large fish. Great work by all the anglers who worked hard to land these fish!
A great tasting Red Grouper came aboard the Lady K during a recent morning trip by VIP angler Danny, who went home with some wonderful eating fish for lunch.
Although not very plentiful this time of the year, a few King Mackerel have been landed this week by lucky anglers fishing both the morning and afternoon trips. Anglers have also been catching Vermillion snapper, triggerfish and there have also been a few Sailfish hook-ups to add to the mix. During this time of the year the boat has very light crowds so it’s perfect for those anglers who don’t wish to fish a crowded boat. Come on out and have some fun day fishing aboard the Lady K!
These two lucky anglers will be heating up the grill for fresh Mahi Mahi and Cobia caught during a terrific morning trip aboard the Lady K. Summertime Mahi Mahi have been showing up with a lot of short fish, called “peanuts”, milling around the boat during some of the morning and afternoon trips. With so many small fish around there should be a good Mahi Mahi fishery in the fall as these fast growing fish develop through the summer. Keeper sized fish like the ones pictured above can be found around large weed patches or other floating debris so keep a sharp eye out and be ready to crank your bait close to the boat when they show up. A few Cobia are still being taken over the reefs, wrecks and sharks along with plenty of Yellow-tail and Mutton Snapper.
As the summer heat cranks up, be sure to bring plenty of sunblock, a hat and drinks if your planning a morning trip. The afternoon trips have been cooling down with the late afternoon thunder storms building up inland and have been the best trips for those in search of Mutton Snapper. We supply everything you need in order to catch fish and our experienced crews are ready to help by providing instructions, tips and techniques, as well as cleaning your catch back at the dock. Your offshore adventure begins here – at BarJack Fishing!
Sharks live along the South Florida coast and are commonly caught aboard the Lady K. The shark pictured above is an Atlantic Sharp-nose. They seldom reach more than four feet in length but put up a big fight when they eat a rigged sardine. The Lady K sees many different shark species throughout the year, from Great Hammerhead Sharks during the fall and spring to big Bull sharks, which reach weights in excess of 500 pounds, during the summer months. Black-tip, Caribbean Reef, Nurse and the Atlantic Sharp-nose are our most common shark species caught, almost year round.
Sometimes anglers may also lose their catch to sharks or Great Barracudas during their fishing excursions aboard the Lady K. The Lesser Amberjack pictured above was a victim off such an attack and proves that bigger bait means bigger fish. Do you feel like your losing your head this holiday season? Why not take a break, spend four hours relaxing under the South Florida sun on the Lady K for some fishing fun. Tight lines and good fishing.
