Sailfish Fishing Miami

In the fall Sailfish fishing off Miami Beach cranks up as the Sailfish start their migration southern reaches of gulf stream.  At the same time the bait schools are migrating south as the cold fronts to the north, lower the water temperature.  The arriving bait schools take up residence on the outer reef  system from Stewart to key West.  The Sailfish schools will follow the bait south and work the edge of the gulf stream, and the out side reef. What makes Miami such a great Sailfish destination is that the gulf stream, and the reef edge converge together less the two miles from the beach. We have the BEST of two "fishing worlds" together.  The days when the blue water is on the reef and the wind is from the north east, watch out the Sailfish bite will be ON Fire.
 

Starting in the Fall we start to fly the kites all through the winter and into the spring.  This is the best method to catch Sail Fish off the coast of Miami & Miami Beach.  The Kite has a few strategic purposes, the first and most important is to keep the live bait right on the surface.  The live bait that we use are mainly baits that like to be near or on the bottom, So they fight hard to get off  the surface, and they let us know how un happy they are.  Swimming violently to get deep to no avail, glued to the surface by the force of the wind and uniquely strategic rigging.  These panicking baits are sending out distress signals that exactly match what the predators are searching for.

.

The Kite also lets us place our live baits at measured distances from the boat as well as each other.  With ideal conditions of wind and sea we can fish two kites at the same time.   Three baits in each, with a total of six baits, on the surface with out tangles.  If conditions are right we will add some deep baits and semi deep rigger baits to the spread.  We can have as many as twelve baits in the water at the same time!  The greatest part of kite fishing is that it is very visual.  Every fish that we raise will show them selves to us.   You will get to see them chase, and crash the baits as if we were not there.  It is absolutely the most exiting way to catch any of the great game that Miami has to offer.  When you book your trip ask about Kite fishing , find out if its the right time of the year to put the "rags in the air"
