Ingredients Seared Florida Tuna Steaks 4 (6-ounce) tuna steaks 1 cup Kalamata olives, pitted, sliced 3 cloves fresh garlic, minced 1 cup grape tomatoes, halved 2 tablespoons capers, drained 1/4 cup fresh herbs (basil, parsley), hand torn 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice 2 tablespoons olive oil 1/2 cup feta cheese, diced sea salt to taste fresh ground pepper to taste Florida Herb Oil 1/4 cup fresh parsley 1/4 cup fresh basil 3 cloves fresh garlic, minced 1 teaspoon lemon zest 1/4 cup olive oil sea salt to taste fresh ground pepper to taste Directions: Seared Florida Tuna Steaks - In a medium-sized mixing bowl combine olives, garlic, tomatoes, capers, herbs, lemon juice, olive oil and feta cheese. Lightly stir ingredients to combine. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper. Preheat a medium-sized sauté pan over medium-high heat. Season both sides of the tuna steaks lightly with salt and pepper. Add 1 tablespoon of olive oil to the preheated sauté pan. Carefully add the tuna steaks to the sauté pan. Cook tuna steaks to preferred doneness (tuna cooks very quickly, and is usually served rare). To serve tuna, slice each steak in half and plate them with even amounts of relish on top. Garnish the tuna with the herb oil.

Florida Herb Oil - In a food processor or blender, add all ingredients. Blend to combine. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper. To serve, drizzle herb oil over seafood or use as a bread dipping sauce.

The new Anniversary Edition retains everything boaters love about the original 420 Outrage — incredible ease of use, expansive seating and gathering spaces, a well-appointed cabin, purposeful amenities, great fishability and flawless performance — and builds on these aspects with the latest technology, updated styling, and an array of exciting new options.

“Building on the proud legacy of the Outrage name, the 420 Outrage Anniversary Edition combines superior comfort and capability with enhanced style and unsurpassed performance,” said Boston Whaler President Nick Stickler. “It’s a powerful next-generation offshore cruiser that represents the future of the Whaler brand. We’re eager for boaters to experience it.”

Cutting-edge propulsion is a major hallmark of the Anniversary Edition. The boat features triple 600-horsepower V12 Mercury FourStroke Verados with Joystick Piloting, delivering breathtaking performance, effortless handling and unmatched fuel efficiency. With a fuel capacity of 700 gallons, the 420 Outrage empowers boaters to travel significantly longer distances without having to stop and refuel. A Skyhook/autopilot keypad and functionality allow for effortless station keeping, while a Seakeeper Gyro Stabilization system virtually eliminates boat roll (and with it, seasickness).

The 420 is not only a powerful performer, it’s also a head-turner. A black hardtop

frame package gives the boat a sleek, sophisticated appearance that pairs beautifully with the upholstery’s new contrast stitching and Sea Gray color scheme. Inside the cabin, darker colors and updated finishes including metallic accents make the space feel larger and more inviting. Teak accents on the helm deck, seating, footrests and bow cupholders lend an elegant touch. Boaters can also choose from several painted hull side colors and four under-hardtop gelcoat colors. Custom painted engines complete the color-coordinated look.

Beyond its aesthetic appeal, the Outrage is also a hardcore offshore fishing platform with all the features and options to give anglers a competitive edge.The deluxe leaning post/bait prep center in the cockpit includes an insulated 40-gallon livewell, freshwater sink, tackle storage drawers and a solid-surface countertop, along with a refrigerator and electric grill. An additional 24-gallon livewell can be found in the aft port corner. Plus, the Anniversary Edition features a new FROSTBOX refrigeration system that keeps catches fresh (or beverages cool) on even the hottest summer days.

For more of a fishing advantage, the optional Flybridge is a must-have. It includes a full helm control box with VesselView screen and DTS throttle and shift, a three-passenger bench seat with individual flip-up bolsters, and an upper station lounge forward of the helm. Choose from radial, premium Gemlux, or competition outriggers for offshore fishing, and count on strategically placed rod holders throughout the boat to keep rods close at hand.

THE Florida MARINER #940 / 29 August 2021

In addition to its fishing prowess, the 420 Outrage has always been a stellar entertaining platform, and the Anniversary Edition lives up to the legacy. Conversation flows naturally from the bolster-style helm and companion row seating, with port and starboard seats that rotate to face aft. A leaning post cushion on the forward side of the prep station also converts to form a three-person bench seat, providing a second row of seating behind the helm. An aft fold-down bench provides extra seating capacity, and folds neatly out of way when extra fish-fighting room or entertaining space is desired. Forward of the helm, a sprawling console lounge features folddown armrests and drink holders, and lifts to reveal cavernous storage below. Wraparound seating at the front of the boat faces a teak bow table, making it a natural gathering zone. For swimming, diving, or hauling a large catch onboard, the standard portside dive door with removable stainless steel dive ladder adds convenience and versatility.

Below deck, the Anniversary Edition’s cabin offers an appealing place to get out of the sun, watch a movie on the 28” flatscreen HDTV, or prep a meal in the well-equipped galley with microwave, refrigerator/ freezer, sink and storage. Large side windows with opening port lights and shades let in plenty of natural light. When overnighting is on the agenda, the convertible double berth and convertible pull-out settee provide space for four people to sleep comfortably.

To celebrate 50 years of the Outrage series and round out the full Whaler experience, the 420 Outrage Anniversary Edition comes with several exclusive gifts for new owners, including a custom helm pad, unreleased artwork, a letter of authenticity, and a coffee table book detailing the history of the Outrage.

Boston Whaler has planned a series of events to kick off the new model. The “Homecoming Tour” will feature stops at locations all along the East Coast, beginning with an August launch event in New York City and including a special homecoming reunion in Quincy, Massachusetts, where the original 50-year-old Outrage model is still in use by the Marine Biological Laboratory. The 420’s tour will conclude in October at the Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show.

“The new 420 Outrage is a pure expression of boating capability,” said Stickler. “For boaters seeking a higher level of luxury, comfort and performance, it’s on a plane all its own.”

North America’s Greatest Tournaments Unite To Launch The Sport Fishing Championship International Offshore Series In 2022

S

www.abelsmarine.com

AN JUAN, Puerto Rico, Aug. 16, 2021 / PRNewswire/ -- Momentum SE and officials from premier fishing tournaments across North America united on Monday to announce the formation of the Sport Fishing Championship (SFC), an eleven-event competition series that will award one grand champion in the sport of offshore fishing. The announcement was made at the 68th Annual San Juan International Billfish Tournament, which will serve as one of the tournaments on the competition circuit in 2022.

For the first time, the Sport Fishing Championship will connect independent, established fishing tournaments, creating a strategic alignment, and ultimately establishing a top titleholder. The series represents one collective vision from each of the partnering tournaments that together boast more than 400 years of fishing tournament history.

The SFC will award four winners based on results from the eleven-tournament regular season, which features three “championship fish” competitions and a pointsbased billfish championship. Teams earn points based on their placement in each qualifying tournament, plus are awarded additional points for every qualified catch throughout the season.

“We look forward to awarding the championship fishing team of the year at the IBT69 in San Juan next August,” said Roger Casellas, Chairman of the International Billfish Tournament – the oldest offshore fishing tournament in Puerto Rico. “It will be an honor to invite anglers from across North America to the 69th edition of our tournament and crown a champion for the sport.”

At the conclusion of the SFC’s regular season, the winning team in the Billfish competition will receive the prestigious championship trophy and substantial cash

prize. (The SFC will unveil details of prize earnings in the Spring of 2022.) Crafted from lead crystal and mounted on a granite base, the stunning SFC Championship Trophy features a cresting marlin and measures three feet in height. The one-of-a-kind piece was designed and crafted by glass artist Susan Gott at the Phoenix Studio in Tampa, Florida. Later this year, the SFC Trophy will debut at Bisbee’s Black & Blue Tournament in Cabo San Lucas.

“We are thrilled to be working with the family of Ernest Hemingway to bestow the Ernest Hemingway Championship Trophy to the winner of the billfish competition,” said Mark Neifeld, CEO of Dallas-based Momentum SE. “Ernest Hemingway was passionate about sport fishing, and naming the iconic trophy in his memory will be an appropriate way to honor his legacy.”

The first year of the championship competition, 2022, also marks the 70th anniversary of “The Old Man and The Sea,” an American literary masterpiece that earned Ernest Hemingway a Pulitzer Prize and the Nobel Prize in Literature.

Momentum SE will serve as the multimedia and marketing rights holder for each partner tournament and manage merchandise, hospitality, and travel packages, as well as SFC licensing opportunities, including video games, trading cards, and NFTs. Longtime director of the Mississippi Gulf Coast Billfish Classic, Bobby Carter, will lead a Board of Advisors comprised of one representative from each partnering tournament to serve over the SFC. Neifeld will serve as the SFC CEO and Commissioner. In addition, Wayne Bisbee, owner of Bisbee’s iconic fishing tournaments in Cabo San Lucas and former founder of the World Billfish Series, will serve as an advisor to the SFC.

Introducing the most efficient boat motor ever - the all-electric CANDELA C-POD “A silent revolution beneath” It will last a lifetime without maintenance, is four times more efficient than the best electric outboards and makes for a totally silent boat ride. With the launch of the Candela C-POD boat motor, the Swedish marine tech company Candela is aiming to disrupt boating as we know it.

C

ombustion engine outboards are noisy, require expensive maintenance, cost a small fortune to run and emit more CO2 per kilometer than most road vehicles.

All this is set to change with the revolutionary Candela C-POD, an electric pod drive developed by Europe’s leading electric boat manufacturer, the Stockholm-based tech firm Candela.

What would be the best boat propulsion one could imagine? Here are some ideas: electric, completely silent, without oil changes and with an almost unlimited lifetime. Add to that almost no losses - converting most of the energy to thrust, says Gustav Hasselskog, Candela’s Founder and CEO. In other boat motors, be it electric or fossil fuel, the motor is typically situated in a box above the waterline, transferring thrust to the propeller through a complicated set of shafts, bearings and gears. The Candela C-POD gets rid of the gears altogether. Two ultra-compact yet very powerful

12

electric motors are mounted under the water in a torpedo-like socket, directly driving the propellers.

Each motor is coupled directly to a propeller, which minimizes friction losses. Contra rotating propellers add the benefit of very high propeller efficiency.

The engineering challenge was to make the electric motors compact enough. Being submerged, they have to have a very small diameter in order to cause minimal drag, explains Hasselskog.

To accomplish this, Candela’s engineers had to rethink electric motor design bottom-up. Electric motor volume is not driven by power. Instead, it is largely proportional to torque. And power is torque times rpm. For the Candela C-POD motors, Candela opted to increase the rpm and lower the torque to boost the Candela C-POD’s power density. The best way was to split the thrust needed on two propellers. The reason is that the maximum rpm is limited by the speed of the propeller tip moving through water. At around 45 m/s propeller speed, the pressure in the flow around the propeller

THE Florida MARINER #940 / 29 August 2021

reaches vacuum and starts to boil. That creates noise, damage and inefficiencies. The speed of the tip of the propeller is a product of rpm and propeller diameter. So splitting load on two propellers allows for propellers with smaller diameter and thereby higher rpm – and in turn smaller motors.

By placing the motors under the water, Candela also elegantly solved the problem all electric motors face: heat. The Candela C-POD engineers designed the slim pod drive to be directly and efficiently cooled by the flow of seawater, thereby enabling higher operating temperatures and extracting more power from the motors.

The first obstacle towards a very small highpower motor is heat. You can take any motor and give it three times more electricity than it is rated for. It will work. But only for a few seconds. Then it melts. With Candela C-POD, we have almost unlimited cooling power – we just need to get heat from the coils to the surrounding water flow, says Hasselskog.

For 2021, BoatUS/NWSA Leadership in Women’s Sailing Award Honoree Marie Rogers: ‘Sailing Is an Amazing Metaphor of How to Get Along’

S

PRINGFIELD, Va.– Race has been at the top of many minds this year, which has led to some uncomfortable conversations, selfexamination, and commitments for change. For Marie Rogers, a captain, instructor, avid West Coast sailboat racer and the first Black woman to serve as commodore of the historic Los Angeles Yacht Club (LAYC), it’s always been about inclusion and sharing her “happy place” – at the helm of a sailboat. Rogers is this year’s Boat Owners Association of The United States (BoatUS)/National Women’s Sailing Association (NWSA) Leadership in Women’s Sailing Award honoree.

The BoatUS/NWSA Award recognizes an individual with a record of achievement in inspiring, educating, and enriching the lives of women through sailing. Roger’s nomination cited her “helping sailors move away from the idea that sailing is a white man’s sport,” embracing the hard work that must be done for inclusion, and her belief that “sailing is an amazing metaphor of how to get along.” She understands that sharing sailing – with everyone – is healthy for the sport.

Rogers did not grow up sailing regularly but had learned the basics. When

mechanics; and bought her own Cal 25, which became the platform for the club’s community sailing program. She took groups of women on adventures to Catalina Island, raced a Trans Pac, and served on LAYC’s board, eventually becoming commodore in 2019 − a very rare event for a Black woman in America and the only one the West Coast to helm a major yacht club.

her son, Colin, befriended several Los Angeles Yacht members and was soon crewing on a 70-foot sled for a member who ran the club’s junior program, word spread that the young man’s mom could sail. She was soon invited aboard and offered the wheel. That man with the 70foot racing sailboat later became Roger’s husband.

What also stood out to award judges is that Rogers had no youth or college sailboat racing experience and learned largely as an adult, eventually becoming an instructor. Her eagerness to share her passion for sailing was apparent to the award judges, as was her generosity and dedication to inclusiveness. For Rogers, leading a major yacht club was not a “job,” but rather a calling and something she felt she needed to do in service to the sport. Today, Rogers coastal races aboard Marie, a Nelson Marek 55, with her husband, Bill, and races closer to home on her J-29, Rush Street.

Rogers soon wanted to be a sailor in her own right. Not content at being what some referred to as “a yacht club wife,” she attended sailing school; earned her U.S. Coast Guard captain’s license; studied weather, navigation and diesel

Rogers will receive the award at the upcoming National Women’s Sailing Conference to be held online and in person, September 11, at Jackson Park Yacht Club in Chicago. For more information go to nwsa.quvent.com

DiscoverBoating 5 Ways to Beat the Labor Day ‘End of Summer’ Blues

www.TheMariner.com

W

hoever decided that Labor Day weekend should mark the unofficial end of summer—and an end to boating season for some areas of the country—clearly didn’t count on September being perfect in so many ways. Sure, the kids are back in school, and traditional family vacations are on hold until the holiday season; but, you can still take advantage of brilliant boating weekends through September (and who knows, weather-willing, even into October).

States especially get a break from the beastly hot days. Additionally, countrywide, thunderstorms are less common after summer ends.

So never fear, all you seasonal boaters out there, there’s still a lot of boating left to be done! Beat the Labor Day boating blues with these five fun facts.

4. The Scenery is Spectacular Especially if you’re in northern regions of the country, the trees may start to turn within weeks after Labor Day. While everyone else is jamming the highways to go leaf peeping, you’ll have some of the most unobstructed and least crowded viewing spots practically to yourself. Even better, flat-calm water can mirror the brilliant foliage, making for one-of-akind pictures.

1. Waterways are Less Crowded Because so many people associating cruising with summer, you may just have the launch ramp, bays, coves, and sandbars (if you need a refresher, be sure to read How to Beach a Boat: 10 Tips for Anchoring on a Sandbar) all to yourself.

Furthermore, you’ll have an easier time anchoring out, tying up at popular waterfront restaurants, and more.

2. The Weather is [Sometimes] More Cooperative What better way to beat the Labor Day boating blues than a still-warm but less-humid afternoon?

Temperatures are milder around the country come September. Those of you in the southern United

3. Fishing Fun is Year-Round Just as birds head south for the winter, fish migrate, too. Specifically, baitfish are on the move—and, naturally, the bigger fish that feed on them follow.

So, if you’re itching to go fishing, look up what’s biting in your area and cast a line.

5. You Can Bring Learning Onboard Boating makes homework fun—without your kids realizing they’re doing it. Preschoolers needing to practice counting can help make sure you have enough PFDs for everyone. Ask the multiplication whiz in your family to calculate the distance to your favorite destination. Whoever is studying American history, meanwhile, can read up on the past of your favorite cruising region and educate the rest of you.

Learning is a two-way street, after all.

www.TheMariner.com now may be a perfect time to consider getting a 2021 Vessel Safety Check (VSC) offered by certified VSC examiners from the St. Lucie River Power Squadron, also known as America’s Boating Club of Martin County. These trained VSC examiners from the local squadron will point out safety features such as minimum requirements required by the U.S. Coast Guard, examine fundamental mechanical aspects of your vessel, and answer questions how you can have more fun safely on the water. These are just a few of the many discussion points covered in this voluntary examination. As an added plus, Vessel Safety Checks are free to boat owners. And if you don’t “pass muster” with the thorough examination, the summary report is yours and yours alone. No record of any possible deficiencies will be reported to the USCG, state agency or any other authority.

Want to know more about this complimentary Vessel Safety Check program? Contact Peter Burns at (772) 486-2684 or burnspet@aol. com. St. Lucie River Power Squadron, one of more than 300 squadrons nationwide, also offers safe boating classes to the public. Check on their website, www.slrps.org, when classes will resume.

It usually takes 20-45 minutes, depending on the size of your boat.

After successful inspection you are awarded a vessel safety check sticker which is affixed to your vessel near your state registration sticker.

CLEARWATER COAST GUARD AUXILIARY TEACHING BOATING SAFETY CLASSES ONLINE - 2021 - A New Way to Learn … A New Crop of Safe Boaters. With the advent of COVID-19, the Coast Guard Auxiliary was advised to discontinue in-person classes for the safety of the instructors and students.

The good news is that the State of Florida (FWC) and the National Association of Boating Law Administrators (NASBLA) have approved the Coast Guard Auxiliary to conduct online classes. These classes are not your standard webinar sessions where the students sit at their computers and are lectured at. And they’re not animated cartoon sessions where you have to keep pressing enter to get to the next topic.

The Clearwater Coast Guard Auxiliary is offering outstanding “Boat America” course via two options: August 28 and 29 - Virtual Boat America 9am to 2pm.

Classes are $40 per student and include the books, supplemental materials and course completion certificates. The classes being offered by the Clearwater Coast Guard Auxiliary are conducted on Zoom with the same instructors the student would have had in the classroom and allowing lots of questions and answers. In addition, because the classes are on the Internet, there’s no commuting to a classroom – the students can be anywhere in Florida! The boating safety class is also a requirement for many boaters in Florida. In the Sunshine State, anyone born after Jan. 1, 1988, must successfully complete a boater safety course approved by the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) in order to operate any boat powered by more than 10 horsepower, and they are required to carry their boater education card with them when out on the water along with picture ID.

Captain’sCorner with Captain Sergio Atanes September’s Best September is my changeup month.

I start getting away from the normal mackerel, trout and shark fishing and start concentrating on large redfish.

With luck, the weather starts to turn just enough to make fishing fun again and the sun more bearable. I do a complete change up from my normal fishing with live bait and start using cut fresh threadfin sardines, ladyfish and mullet.

I look for these hard fighting fish not on the flats, but around docks, bridges or deep cuts along oyster beds. It’s been a long hot summer and they are lazy fish looking for cooler deeper water. If you look closely at a redfish, his eyes are up high and his mouth is down, clearly telling you he is a bottom feeder, which is the reason why so many redfish are lost on top water plugs or using live baits. They lose sight of their prey just before the strike.

First of all, start by finding docks with moving water. I prefer the start of an outgoing tide around the docks in the upper Tampa Bay area. Second, position your boat within casting distance of the shaded area of the dock, and third start chumming with small pieces of cut threadfin sardines.

Looking for some exciting Redfish action this month along Florida’s Nature Coast? Well look no further than the many spoil and mangroveladen islands scattered throughout our coast of the Gulf of Mexico. From the shallow flats off Chassahowitzka Point to the spoil islands off the barge canal in Yankeetown, our anglers have been spoiled in recent weeks with some of the hottest Redfish action of the year. These fish are not just plentiful this time of year, they are LARGE and they’re Hungry. Large hungry fish is all you need to know when excited anglers are looking to land some of the largest Redfish of the year.

Although it can be downright steamy this month, our savvy group of guides have been putting together all the right pieces of the puzzle including time, place, baits and tackle in order to reap the rewards of some of the best Redfishing of the year. In order to beat the heat and catch the

West Central Florida Southwest Coast

I am now ready to fish using a 2/0 J hook or 2/0 Kahle circle hook. With clients that do not have much fishing experience, I use J hooks, as their normal tendency is to pull to set the hook. However, for clients that have experience fishing for reds, I use circle hooks. I like 30-pound test fluorocarbon leader about 36inches long tied to15 pound braided line using a surgeons knot. There are a number of knots you can use, but for simplicity, surgeons work best for me. Since I am fishing anywhere from 3 to 10-feet of water and have some current, I attach a 1/4-to3/8-ounce sinker to keep the cut bait on the bottom.

tides are low and clear water exposes rocks and old pilings. I found some docks with furniture under them or rocks and other debris that was dumped when the house was being built years earlier. Make a note about what you found and where the rocks are for the spring and fall fishing.

I find that not all docks hold fish, and some are better than others, but you will have to learn that on your own.

One thing about dock fishing is that the larger fish tend at hang around the deepest point on the dock or around any structure around the dock.

One side note while fishing the docks and the reefs you will have a chance to catch some sheepshead, flounder, and mangrove snapper as a bonus. It wouldn’t hurt to have one rig with a 1/0 hook for the smaller species. Kids would love the action, and so will the grownupslet’s keep the line tight and the smiles coming.

In the winter months we have cold fronts pass through and the high pressure system sitting on top of us, which gives us extremely low tides.

That is the best time to look at the docks in your area when the

best bite of the day our guides have been hitting the water before sunrise to stake their claim on their favorite flats and points. As we speak massive schools of pre spawn Redfish are congregating in the Gulf just outside of the western most mangrove and spoil islands and from now through September, these enormous schools will partake in their annual spawning rites, and for anglers lucky enough to see the water literally turn red when a school goes into a feeding frenzy, well, it’s an unforgettable image etched into an angler’s memory.

Most of these bronze brutes will be caught by our anglers using live baits and artificial lures but opportunities to put up some serious numbers on fly certainly exist this month. With so many fish in competition to feed before the spawn its not uncommon to “load down every rod in the boat” when a massive school of Redfish invade your position. Medium spinning rods rigged with 1/4 oz. jigheads and 2/0 live bait hooks will ensure anglers are ready to pitch an assortment of live baits and fly anglers need to have lines and flies that

Another overlooked area are the artificial reefs they tend to hold the bigger reds.

I learned when fishing the artificial reefs to use live medium shrimpor cut threadfins with longer leaders 2/0 or 3/0 circle hooks with enough weight to keep the bait within 3-foot of the bottom.

Thereds are waiting in the shade, so give them a try.

West Florida are capable of sinking down into these migratory fishes strike zone.

Sink tip fly lines are a must this time of year and weighted shrimp and crab flies have been deadly in enticing these hungry Redfish.

Remember, Big Sharks, Jack Crevalle and even Tarpon, on occasion, travel with these big schools of Redfish, so all of our guides are prepared with a variety of stout spinning rods and reels capable of handling any larger fish we come in contact with this time of year. Because of the large presence Sharks this month it’s also very important to get all fish boat side and released in a quick manner.

Nothing will ruin an incredible Redfish bite quicker than a Shark feeding frenzy within a school.

FLORIDA KEYS FISHINGTOURNAMENTS: 2021 Florida Keys Fishing Tournaments Calendar - Long popular, these fishing events provide a chance for some friendly Florida Keys fishing competition to see who’s going to go home with the next big saltwater trophy. These exhilarating tournament fishing contests attract entrants the same way sailfish are drawn to ballyhoo. You can fish singly, in groups, or even team up with Key West fishing guides for the very popular Cuda Bowl held each year.

So whether your idea of fun is going to Key West fly fishing for permit, Islamorada deep sea fishing for sailfish, Key Largo back country fishing, or Marathon tarpon fishing, there’s a fish tournament for you. Since fishing in Florida Keys is always good, there’s typically a fishing tournament going on some where in the Florida Keys.

This also means that some fishing tournaments will occur during the rainy season.

Captain’sCorner with Captain Dean Panos The End of Summer is Near

Make Money renting your unused Dock Space!

Synonymous with summer in South Florida is mahi fishing. So far though that has not been the case. Last year mahi fishing was slow until July and then it got very good in August. So far this year it has been a bust. There have only been a few mahis around and most have been small. There are days when you will find bigger schools and bigger mahis but not like it should be.

Hopefully mid to end of August and even September will be better. FYI- we have seen mahi seasons like this before and it is all cyclical. There will be bad years and there will be good years. This year happened to be not so good.

Being that we are in South Florida though, when one fish isn’t biting, we have plenty of other species to fish for.

We have spent a few trips fishing on the edge which is what we normally do in the

spring and winter. Last few trips on the edge we caught kingfish, bonitos and sailfish. Most people think of sailfish as a winter species, but we do catch them year-round in South Florida. We even had a half day trip a week or so ago where we caught 3 sailfish on that half day trip.

Another fish we can target, and prime season is rapidly approaching, is the swordfish. Swordfish are big game fish, and you will not catch one every trip, but you do stand a very good chance of hooking one and the fish can be of true quality size. Some may be what we call rats of 50 or so pounds but there are also the true gladiators of 300 plus pounds. The biggest swordfish caught around here was in excess of 750 pounds. The beauty is you never know what size of fish you will hook next. A few weeks back we had a trip where we did not catch one, but just this past week we caught a nice one around 240 pounds.

Beginning of September is fairly booked but by mid-September the calendar opens again. That will put us in prime time for daytime swordfish. Last year we also had a real good run of early season sailfish in September and had those big schools of sardines show up where we were catching tunas, mahis

It’s best to fish the reef and wrecks in low-light conditions in the early morning or late evening. These fish have been picked over all summer and they’re quite wary, so make sure you set up perfectly.

There have been good numbers of blackfin tuna offshore. Most run five to ten pounds this time of year, with the occasional larger fish at the Marathon humps. Trolling and jigging are the preferred methods to catch the tuna.

On the inshore reef and wreck areas, snappers are the prime players this time of year. Yellowtails dominate, with a few straggler mangroves and the occasional mutton mixed in.

If you’re looking for serious lighttackle action on big fish, you can’t do better than shallow-water fishing for lemon sharks. Most are found in the four- to five-foot depths surrounding shallow flats. This is where they do their hunting. Jack crevalles and bluerunners make good chum and bait for the sharks.
