VIP anglers Rob (l) and Mark (r) display two nice Cobia caught during a very recent afternoon trip on the Lady K. Both fish slammed baits drifted just off the bottom. Although not very pretty by nature, these wonderful game fish make excellent table fare and can feed a small family for at least a week.
This beautiful Coney Grouper (aka Strawberry Grouper) was caught and released due to the annual Shallow Water Grouper closed season. Grouper season will reopen on May 1st so anglers will be able to take grouper again as long as they meet the state’s recreational size limits.
A member of the needlefish family, this Houndfish is just one of the many different fish species anglers may be able to catch during the spring and early summer migrations off the South Florida coastline. Houndfish can go up to six feet long and can be seen leaping across the surface of the ocean as they chase small baitfish.
Don’t miss your chance to hook into a great time this spring and plan a trip aboard the Lady K. We supply everything you need for four hours of offshore exploration. No angling experience required, our crews will show you how and coach you through the fight, then they’ll fillet your catch back at the dock. Good luck and tight lines!
Cobia are beginning to show along the southern Palm Beach County reefs and wrecks. These fish can be taken on either a drift rig or a bottom rig like the pictured above. Cobia should start their migration throughout March, April and May.
Mahi Mahi have also been moving through the area like this 14 pounder Hernando caught while flat-lining a sardine during Friday’s morning trip. The spring months should brighten up as this colorful and acrobatic fish move through the area. Mahi Mahi can be caught while anglers fish a flat line (no weight), a knocker rig, or a drift rig. Ask your crew for some tips and pointers on the way out to help increase your chances in hooking one these fabulous gamefish.
Mutton snapper like the one Brandon (above) and Robbie (below) caught during an afternoon trip will also be moving in as they prepare for their spring time spawn. Anglers should try to reel these fish in fast for Bull Sharks will be eagerly awaiting to take any snapper for its own dinner.
Spring time is here so take a break from the everyday and come on out aboard the Lady K!
Conditions have to be perfect to enable the Lady K crews the opportunity to hook up anglers on deep water fish such Blue-line Tilefish. Tilefish live in water depths from 350 to well over 900 feet. Fishing for these excellent eating fish requires heavy sinkers, a little squid and a lot of stamina.
The crew can tell who eats their spinach or not! The young angler on the right showed he had what it takes to land his limit of Tilefish during a calm afternoon trip. The crew worked hard to ensure everyone caught fish to bring home for dinner by rotating rods throughout the trip.
While fishing the deeper waters of the Atlantic, anglers also fished sardine rigs for a chance to hook any passing Mahi Mahi, Wahoo, Tuna or other pelagic gamefish. The Sailfish pictured above and below was released by a young angler, his first Sailfish which will be a memory for a lifetime. Great job!
Is being cooped up with relatives making you a basket case? Then get out under the clear powder blue skies, fill your lungs with some good old salt air and ride the indigo waters of the Atlantic Ocean aboard the Lady K – your get away from the every day.
