Bimini Offshore Fishing Report

Bimini Offshore Fishing Report

August 27, 2019 | No Comments

Fishing in unfamiliar territory is always  challenging but the rewards are better because you’re not expecting much. We took a family trip to Bimini and did a little offshore fishing. Leaving the safe harbor of south Bimini you didn’t have to travel far to find good fishing grounds. You can literally swim to shore that’s how close we were fishing in 400-600 feet of water.  Bottom fishing you can expect tons of trigger fish, yellow eye snapper and strawberry grouper. Trolling north you can expect to catch black fin tuna, skip jacks and Mahi. Fishing in the Bahama banks never

Just because red snapper is out of harvest season doesn’t mean you can’t catch them. They are great fighters, great for pictures and when vented correctly they have a high percent  recovery rate.

The water clarity and temperature are ideal for both bottom fishing as well as trolling.  King mackerel and  bonitas are plenty at almost any depth.  However if you want dinner there’s nothing better than bottom fishing.  We have been doing great on trigger fish, red eye snapper, mangrove snapper and groupers. The deeper you are the better you’ll do, just have enough weight on your sinkers to hold bottom. Capt. Nick

Ponce Inlet fishing has been excellent this season. We’ve had a large variety of species biting on the bottom. We caught record size trigger fish, mangrove snapper, red eyes and of course red snapper. Trolling has been a hit and miss but when they do bite its non stop. Mahi are still around and king mackerel have been consistent. Throw in a barracuda and bonita to the mix and your day has become full bending rods.  Capt. Nick
