Boater’s Landing

We have the boating expertise to help you enjoy your boat to its fullest. As a New Boat Dealer in 1988, Boater’s Landing started with a boat line from its founders own name sake - the Four Winns Boat company. As the founder of Boater’s Landing - Bill Winn Jr. was also one of the original Four Winns that started the Four Winns Boat Company. With the Winn family as owners and managers of Boater’s Landing we are proud of the boats still built up in Cadillac Michigan. Four Winns offers a great selection of high quality Horizon Bow Riders, Horizon Deck Boats, and Vista Express Cruisers. In 2000 Boater’s Landing added a great Salt Water fishing boat brand to its fleet – Key West Fishing boats. For 2020 the Key West fishing boat line offers 14 different fully foamed models to choose from, you wouldn’t expect the pricing of these fully foamed fishing boats to be so much less than the premium-priced boat brands with the same building standards.

Check out the full line of Key West Bay Boats, Center Consoles, and Dual Consoles at Boater’s Landing. In 2015 Key West added a new line up

of boats called Billistic. These are 26’-35’ center consoles built for going offshore. They retain the same excellent build quality provided

by Key West, as well as the up-right foam flotation that they’re famous for. The most recent addition to the Boater’s Landing line up in 2019, also featuring Yamaha Outboards and Mercury Outboards are the Wellcraft Fishing Boats. Built alongside the Four Winns deck boats in the Cadillac factory we’re proud to have them join our family here in Fort Myers.

We Buy Used Boats, Repo Boats, Bank Boats & we take Trade-Ins: RVs, motorcycles, cars, and boat trailers. We service the boat brands we sell (Four Winns - Sport Boats and Yachts, and Key West Fishing Boats) in all of Lee County, Collier County, and Charlotte County in the areas including: Ft. Myers, Ft Myers Beach, Sanibel, Cape Coral, Matlacha, Pine Island, Port Charlotte, Punta Gorda, Bonita Springs, Naples, Golden Gate, and Marco Island. We sell two brands of boat

Introducing the All New Boston Whaler 360 Outrage

www.TheMariner.com

W

haler has used purposeful innovation with the 360, harnessing the power of simplicity to make the 360 Outrage easy to own, simple to use and easy to maintain. The reasons you will thrill to this boat are many.

Highlights of the Revolutionary 360 Outrage include: • Space Race - The new 360 Outrage has been configured to offer more room for improved fishability, simple access to the front, and maximum storage. And it just feels larger.

• Cockpit Flexibility - This Outrage’s cockpit is now more customizable, with a

Summer Kitchen option, refined seating and convertible usage seating.

• Helms Deep - The intuitive helm with twin large Simrad Displays syncs with Mercury Joystick Piloting, and an optional Seakeeper gyrostabilizer tames the waves. The hardtop creates easy access to the upper station, with a ladder placed at the centerline.

• Power Play - Standard triple 300-hp Mercurys can be optioned up to triple 450-hp Mercury FourStrokes, or twin 600-hp V12 Verados - the first V12 outboard on the market!

• Fathom E-Power - The 360 Outrage is also available with Fathom e-Power.

Fathom e-Power is an energy-efficient

alternative to fuel-powered generators allowing for a longer, quieter and more eco-friendly day on the water.

And that’s only the beginning!

Mercury® Verado®, the 360 Outrage is not only the most versatile and ergonomic center console on the market — it’s also the most fun.

The 360 Outrage represents a new standard of excellence for offshore center consoles. Designed from the keel up to maximize space and functionality, the 360 Outrage delivers an effortless boating experience and a tremendous amount of flexibility. Cutting-edge technology is evident throughout, from the intuitive helm station to the available lithium-ion battery system. Thanks to its perfectly power-matched propulsion options, including the new 600-hp V12

Planning a Fishing Trip with Kids

I

t is SUMMER! My kids have been yelling this word for days now. Actually, they started yelling ‘summer’ days before school was over. Can you blame them?

We all love summer for one reason or another. One favorite pass time is going fishing. Take it from me, it can be easily planned!

Tips for Fishing with Kids Fishing is such a great activity to do as a family. It truly encompasses so many different skills that makes it perfect for the summer. So why fishing? My kids are not only getting outdoors and out on the water, but also are learning how to be patient. Summer can be difficult to keep those routines in check, but activities like fishing will definitely help! They also learn

how to share with each other when it comes to fish bait and taking turns baiting those hooks.

Plus, we are all able to enjoy each other while riding on the boat and off the boat.

What more can you ask for?

Tackle Boxes It doesn’t take a lot of stress and worry to plan a fishing trip, especially when you have all you need right at your finger tips.

For the actual fishing gear, we allow our kids to pick out their own fishing pole (if they don’t already have one) as well as whatever baits they want to use. This is meant to be a fun experience, so give them the chance to choose and pick what they would like to use! These things can be picked up at practically any major retail store.

Transportation What about transportation on the water?

Again, no worry! Discover Boating’s Go Boating Today tool makes this process super easy for you, whether it be to purchase or rent a boat for a day. Our family has yet to own a boat. So when it comes to boating trips, we either borrowing or renting a boat. Wondering how does Discover Boating work?

Discover Boating’s Go Boating Today Tool Nearly 142 million Americans go boating each year with ninetyfive percent of boats on the water (powerboats, personal watercraft, and sailboats) in the U.S. are small in size, measuring less than 26 feet in length—boats that can be trailered by a vehicle to local waterways. Recreational boating is such a fun activity and thankful that it is now made easy for all of us!

Discover Boating is an interactive online resource that allows you to search via zip code for a boat, either for renting or to own. Within your search, all the places near the entered zip code that offer these services will pop up. Easy peasy!

Go Boating Today: Find local boat rentals, clubs, peer-to-peer sharing and more near you. https://www.discoverboating.com/goboating-today Youth Boating Programs: Find programs close to home and the right fit for your child. https://www.discoverboating.com/ activities/beginner-programs Snacks You can’t forget all those snacks to eat while

everyone is out on the boat and fishing. We all know how much our kids love to snack! So pack that ice chest with everyone’s favorite sandwiches, snacks and drinks. Remember that patience for all the memories that will be made while fishing with your loved ones!

So don’t wait too long to find that perfect boat via using Discover Boating’s Boat Finder tool, and enjoy this summer while fishing.

BWMG to Acquire the Assets of Gold Coast Scuba, Inc. and Launch New Subsidiary, Live Blue, Inc.

P

ompano Beach, Florida, Feb. 07, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Brownie’s Marine Group, Inc. (OTCQB:BWMG), (the “Company”) a leading developer, manufacturer, and distributor of tankless diving equipment, dive equipment, and high-pressure air and industrial compressors in the marine industry, today announced that it has signed a term sheet to acquire the assets of Gold Coast Scuba, LLC, a dive shop and scuba diving training center operating in Lauderdaleby-the-Sea, Florida.

“Gold Coast Scuba will be our kick-off to a newly created Live Blue subsidiary. The Live Blue concept has been in the planning stage as a for more than a year, and Gold Coast Scuba is perfectly situated to be an incubator for the concept,” said Robert Carmichael, Chairman of Brownie’s Marine Group, Inc. “The Lauderdaleby-the-Sea facility is intended to be a pilot program for guided tours, rental, and coaching provided with the Company’s innovative line of products from BLU3.

Lauderdale-by-the-Sea provides an ideal location for the Company’s pilot program since it allows for numerous water and wind-based activities to be launched from shore, including snorkeling, tankless diving, and scuba diving.”

Mr. Carmichael further added,

“before we roll out BLU3 guided tours to water sports activity centers around the world, we want to ensure that our processes and standards will consistently offer a legendary experience to people who want to connect with the underwater world without the need for a complete set of bulky dive gear and the traditional training requirements that come with it. We also want to assure the current customers of Gold Coast Scuba that it will continue to operate at its current location with the same team of dedicated dive professionals.”

“We are looking forward to working with Brownie’s Marine Group to introduce innovative products, services, and quality operating processes to our clients at Gold Coast Scuba while continuing our involvement in the community with organizations like DiveHeart,” said Bill Frenier, co-owner of Gold Coast Scuba.

The Company has also retained the services of Mr. Darcy Kieran, principal at the Business of Diving Institute, to guide Brownie’s Marine Group in developing and launching Live Blue water & wind activities centers. Mr. Kieran is an experienced dive industry professional having owned and/ or managed retail, wholesale, and eCommerce dive businesses in Canada and the USA. He’s been a recreational diving

Course Director and tech diving Instructor Trainer with numerous dive training agencies. He owned and/or managed dive shops, dive training centers, dive resorts, and charter boats in Canada and the USA. He’s been on the Board of Directors of DEMA, the Diving Equipment & Marketing Association.

“The dive industry is ripe for disruption. Now is the time to define and test a new business model that will offer consumers more convenience under a highquality, trustworthy, and exciting lifestyle brand. This will allow Brownie’s Marine Group, Inc. to be ready to benefit from the surge in tourism we expect postpandemic,” said Darcy Kieran of the Business of Diving Institute.

About Gold Coast Scuba Gold Coast Scuba is a PADI 5-star dive center located a few blocks from the beach in Lauderdale-by-the-Sea. It opened in 2009 with a few partners, including Steve Gagas, who is still, today, the general manager. For more information, visit: GoldCoastScuba.net.

Brunswick Corporation and Boston Whaler Intensify Sustainability Commitment with Arkema to Develop Fully Recyclable Fiberglass Boat

M

ETTAWA, Ill. (February 14, 2022) – Brunswick Corporation (NYSE: BC) has announced that it is expanding its partnership with Arkema, a leader in specialty materials, to develop a fully recyclable fiberglass boat that integrates Arkema’s Elium® liquid thermoplastic resin on all the vessel’s composite parts, core, and adhesives.

The project is part of Brunswick’s enterprise-wide sustainability program and is expected to allow for hull and structural components to be fully recycled at end of life and reintroduced into production processes, reducing the amount of disposable material and sourcing of virgin raw materials.

The first prototype was displayed at the 2022 Fort Lauderdale Boat Show, and will be developed in conjunction with Boston Whaler, leveraging

14

the brand’s unique construction to validate the technology.

“We are delighted to expand our partnership with Arkema, marking an exciting milestone in our sustainability journey,” said Kris Neff, Boston Whaler president. “By combining next-generation materials with the legendary safety and durability of the Boston Whaler brand, we are ensuring we continue to meet boaters’ diverse and changing needs while reducing our environmental footprint.”

Arkema’s Elium® resin is particularly suited to the marine industry and the production of composite watercraft; in addition to being fully recyclable, it is specially adapted to the resin infusion process of large parts with a low viscosity, long reactivity, and a low exothermic reaction.

THE Florida MARINER #953 / 27 February 2022

“Elium® resin is our solution for the new era of sustainable composites,” said Nicolas Valloir, Arkema business manager. “Through our partnership with Brunswick and Boston Whaler, we’re helping to shape a more sustainable future and circular economy for the marine industry.

This is fully aligned with Arkema’s commitment to develop innovative solutions tailored to support our customers in their quest for sustainable performance.”

Visit the St. Lucie River Power Squadron website: www. slrps.org A VESSEL SAFETY CHECK - STUART - Despite numerous COVID-19 restrictions, more and more boaters are taking to the water to alleviate at-home boredom while taking advantage of the openair benefits and more pandemic-free aspects of recreational boating. But if you haven’t been out boating in a while, are your vessel’s lights operating properly? Do you have a sufficient number of life jackets for the number of passengers aboard? Is your engine’s ventilation system up to par? To get you started on a new year boating adventure, now may be a perfect time to consider getting a 2022 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. Information about the parent organization is available at www. usps.org.

COAST GUARD AUXILIARY OFFERS VESSEL SAFETY CHECKS AND SAFE BOATING CLASSES - A Vessel Safety Check is a complimentary check of your boat conducted by members of the Auxiliary, confirming that it meets both federal and state requirements for safety. No citations are issued, and the results of the safety check are not reported to

any enforcement agency, but a decal is awarded to display when the vessel has passed the examination.

The Vessel Safety Check (VSC) is performed at your boat, whether in a slip, at the launch ramp, or in your driveway, by a certified Vessel Examiner, at a mutually-convenient time. It usually takes 20-45 minutes, depending on the size of your boat.

CLEARWATER COAST GUARD AUXILIARY TEACHING BOATING SAFETY CLASSES ONLINE - 2022 - 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 inperson 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.

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 Getting Ready to Win I always plan on fishing several tournaments each year and fishing themcan be fun if you are properly prepared. However, several things need to be taken into consideration, and each one needs to be addressed differently.

Inshore fishing requires a shallow draft boat, light tackle, a good size live well for bait and a good selection of artificial lures as a backup.

Offshore fishing on the other hand requires a modified hull, a good size live well, and a larger selection of tackle.

East coast fishing is totally different from the west coast since most east coast tournaments revolve around sailfish, marlin, and wahoo.

While west coast fishing usually keys in on redfish, snook, kingfish and tarpon not to say we don’t have sailfish tournaments but for most parts inshore tournaments are most prevalent.

Here are some tips to improve your chances at winning.(Inshore) • Know the area you are going to fish by taking time to review the local waters. This means of outside your comfort zone you might need to arrive several days earlier and pre-fish the area.

• Hire a local full-time guide for a day let him know you are in town to fish in a tournament and need to some areas to fish.

• Bait shops are a good source of information. Their staff are local anglers and full of knowledge I find them most helpful on what is going on in the area.

• The early bird gets the worm, and the best baits are caught before daybreak.

• Double check your tackle and carry extra line and leader material.

You never know when you can get spooled.

• Double up on tackle. This is no time for reel or rod failure. I always take four of everything. More is better,because you won’t see many tackle stores on the water.

Here are some tips to improve your chances at winning. (NearshoreOffshore) • Stay on top of the weather forecast, wind direction, speed and falling or raising barometer. This will guide you did you want to make that long run to a favorite spot or hang tight to shoreline and give it your best. Safety First is always on my list.

• Teamwork plays an important part in tournament fishing, so pick your partners and stick together. The longer you fish with one another the better you get.

• Several products I consider important for tournament fishing include a Kingfish bag simply put a long soft side cooler than can handle long fish without taking up a lot of space.

The other is a Ghost Drag great

with Captain Dylan Hubbard Inshore Fishing Report Redfish action has been steady through the area this past week. They have been finicky a bit and tough to find in a feeding mode, but most of the success has been around shallow sunbaked flats, mangrove shorelines and dock lines. It appears the incoming tide is working well this past week as well. Live shrimp has been a great option on light tackle, but slow-moving soft plastics worked well too. Remember, when the water is chilly like it is now the fish are moving super slow and are looking for baits that are slow movers too. They will not chase down a fast retrieved lure when they are cold so if you think you are retrieving that paddle tail, fluke, or shrimp soft plastic slow enough then slow down even more and you could be getting close enough to the speed they are looking for. Once you find the fish, find the speed, and stick to that speed as you look for other fish. Long casts to areas you see fish or think there may be fish has been key as they are very leader shy and spooky.

If you get to close, cast a shadow, or create vibrations they are much less likely to eat if not, totally scatter.

Snook, like the redfish, are looking for those slower moving baits. They are even more so affected by the cooler water temps, and they are very lethargic. This is the time of year cut dead bait works well for both species. Night dock light fishing is also a good option for snook this time of year especially if you can find those older underwater lights that tend to radiate more heat. These things will warm the water around them and hold lots of fish especially at the bottom closer to the light’s edge.

During the day, residential dock lines with sunbaked

22

seawalls in wind protected canals have been working well to find actively feeding snook. However, the right tide is key and finding those fish ready to eat has most to do with not only a little warmer water and the right presentation on your bait but that right tidal window too. Use your tide charts, apps, or tide sites to find the solunar times and observe the difference in action on those solunar major and minor times. Often the best action will coincide with either the major or minor solunar time frames or near them. I like the ‘smart fishing tides’ product salt strong has because it not only shows the solunars but breaks down the days to assign them scores and even the hours of the day to assign hourly scores on when the best time to fish will be for that area based on moon phase, weather, and tidal solunars.

Trout action has been spotty but seemingly improved this past week. We are seeing a lot of these guys around our local passes and beaches. Plus, the back bay waters around those shallow flats, oyster bars, mangrove shorelines and dock lines too. Again, to reiterate, moving your bait slow is key for most any inshore species right now due to those cooler water temps. Live shrimp, small pinfish, and white bait have worked well this past week for the trout action. Find those edges, drop offs, potholes, or cuts around the flats for the best chance at finding concentrated trout action.

Sheepshead around the area are still biting very well from the seawalls to rock piles of the bay any where you can find some structure with some growth is working well to produce sheepshead action. Smaller shrimp, cut oyster, clams or crabs have

West Central Florida Southwest Coast for kingfish fishing a simple item that attaches to your rod and acts as a small outrigger allow you to free line or slow troll you bait.

Tournament fishing is 20% knowledge and 80% luck. I fished my fair share of kingfish tournaments over the years, had perfect baits, did everything right but was never able to hit the number one spot. When filming one of my shows for television on yellowtail fishing, I caught by MISTAKE my largest kingfish ever a sixty-nine pounder on light tackle.

As a professional guide and fun tournament fisherman, I picked the2500 Pathfinder asmy boat of choice. I needed a dual-purpose boat to use one that would handle the shallow waters for the redfish tournaments and the kingfish tournaments near shore.

The 25foot Pathfinder with a Yamaha 300HP outboard,Simrad 12-inch screen combo depth finder/GPS on the main station and 9-inch on the tower, a MinKota GPS Auto Pilot trolling motor, dualPower Pole for quick anchoring and a 32-gallon baitwell leaning post combo and a 36-gallong aft baitwell, making it all perfect for fishing machine for the shallow flats of the west coast of Florida and near shore waters of the Gulf of Mexico.

West Central Florida Capt. Sergio Atanes Tampa Bay Fishing Charters 813-973-7132 www.reelfishy.com

West Central Florida been the go-to baits of choice for those targeting sheepshead. Local bridges too are great places to find hungry and plentiful sheepshead. When the weather is tough, and the water is stirred up like it will be Saturday afternoon or into Sunday then it’s a great time for sheepshead fishing around protected areas like bridges, canals, or fishing from shore on a pier or dock.

Black drum have continued to bite well around the area where you can find them. Dock lines, bridges, and occasionally the flats. You will find the hungry black drum sometimes in big schools sometimes cruising alone or in pairs. Shrimp is a great option for them but if you want to target them cutting some medium to large crabs in half and sinking them to the bottom around larger local bridges is a great option to get you a big black drum hook up.

Bonnet head sharks have continued to be prolific and aggressive from our beaches and passes to the back bay waters. We have a lot of these guys in the area, and they love a live or even dead shrimp on the bottom. When they are around typically, they are in high numbers and bite consistently so it makes for tons of fun for any level experienced angler to catch plenty and have a good time doing it.

inshore is falling water temperatures force most fish, bait included, to seek deeper locations in search the warmest water they can find, and they become very sluggish (cold blooded). As the sun warms the water, all it takes is a degree or two change and the fish will begin to move into the shallow flats to feed. On the sunny mornings, it is not uncommon to find redfish and trout holding in the deeper sand pockets within the shallow flats where water temperatures raise quickly.

Additionally, warming water temperatures combined with sunny spring days and clear water, make February one of the best months to site fish for redfish, large sea trout, and black drum on the lagoon flats. For larger sea trout, fish at first light, sunset, or at night with natural baits and target areas where mangrove edges, docks, and other structures adjacent to deep water dredge holes, sloughs, or canals with mucky bottoms. These same areas will also hold concentrations of small trout which can be caught throughout the day on small jigs and shrimp imitation baits like DOA Shrimp fished very slowly along the bottom.

Offshore, kingfish can still be found along the inshore reefs and wrecks, and they will remain there if the water temperature stays above 68 degrees.

When targeting kings, focus on the areas of 8A reef, Pelican Flats, and Bethel Shoals to the south. Look for cobia and amberjack to be holding on the inshore wrecks out of Port Canaveral and Ponce Inlet. Most importantly, live bait is tough to find this time of year,

biggest ones of the year. Fish in the 60to 80-pound class are not unusual, with plenty of 20- to 40-pounders to wear you out.

In the Atlantic waters, we have plenty of pelagics, including blackfin tuna, kingfish and some big cobia. But the star attraction is the abundance of sailfish. March and April will be prime time to target sails, but take your iron stomach with you because conditions can be quite sporty.

The best baits to attract the attention of the AJs are bluerunners, grunts and large pilchards. Jigging also produces excellent results.

In the Gulf and Florida Bay venues, we’ve seen some of the best fishing in ten years, with loads of Florida pompano, cobia and large kings. Goliath groupers and sharks keep the game interesting.

On the reef, the yellowtail action picks up tempo at this point in the spring.

With the warming waters, the fish become more active and need to feed more, which makes it a bit easier to coerce them into taking your bait. Using plenty of chum is important. SnapperUp or Mojo Oats will bring them in right behind your boat.

Moving inshore to the wrecks, March is typically very good for mutton snappers, kingfish and very large amberjacks.

The amberjacks are beginning their spawn this month, and it’s now that we catch some of the

so always carry a box of frozen Spanish sardines with you as backup.

Near-shore look for tripletail concentrations to improve greatly along the Port Canaveral buoy line and under floating weeds and structures, and for cobia to move in shadowing manta rays if the surface water temperatures reach the upper sixties. Now is also the time for shore fisherman to target pompano, bluefish, weakfish, small black drum, sheepshead, Spanish mackerel and whiting in the surf and larger redfish and flounder around the inlet jetties and.

Finally, windy days are a great time to check out those freshwater fishing holes on the St Johns River. Currently anglers have been catching American shad, speckled perch, warmouth perch, and largemouth bass. Like everything else this year, the shad run is behind schedule. This past week I heard one good report of shad coming from the Marina Isles to Mullet Lake section of the St. Johns River, with only a few shad being taken south of Lake Harney. As the run progresses the shad should be moving into the shallows south of Hwy 46 and beyond HWY 50, so fly anglers get ready.

Currently water levels are dropping on both the Lagoons and on the St Johns River, so please operate your vessels with caution when fishing in theses area.

Marathon/Florida Keys

We’ve had cool temps by Keys standards the last couple of months, providing excellent fishing for our wintertime water-dwelling visitors!

On the deep side of the reef in 150 to 250 feet of water, there are good numbers of blackfin tuna in the 10- to 20-pound class plus king mackerel and a more common occurrence of dolphin as well as sailfish. Live baits are key with live pilchards providing the most consistent action. Live ballyhoo, if you can find them, also work well. Cigar minnows and sardines will also put fish in the box.

“Where Caring is the Key” Apold Pascal Home Provider 941.629.8577 941.628.5099

Nothing has been routine about the weather so far this winter. Warmer and breezier conditions have only provided us with a few decent weather days in the beginning of February. Also, there is still the chance of freezing conditions returning this year, but your guess is as good as mine. I’m not complaining, just stating the facts, because even with the worst weather we are still blessed to be fishing and catching here in Central Florida.

Normally, once the cold front pushes off the coast into the Atlantic and high pressure settles in, and fishing conditions can shift from miserable to magnificent overnight. One sign I watch for is the development of fog in the early morning hours. As high-pressure systems move off to the northeast, southeasterly wind shifts carry humid air off the Atlantic.

Rising humidly levels are an indication of warming temperatures, and a falling barometer. These factors provide ideal weather for fishing the flats and running offshore once the fog burns off. When the next approaching front moves closer the winds will begin to back down from the south and eventually shift from the west just before the front hits.

As a rule, the stronger the cold front, the more intense the wind speed and shifts will be. All this information falls in the nice to know category if you are one of the lucky people who can pick their days on the water, but for most of us the best day to fish is whenever you have a chance.

Another important point to remember when fishing

Central Florida

For the muttons and kings, live pinfish, pilchards or ballyhoo all work, fished down near the bottom.

All you need for successful yellowtail catching are 15-lb fluoro leaders and small hooks, such as the Owner #4 Mutu Light hooks we use.

The reef edge will have good numbers of king and cero mackerel.

And, of course, plenty of grouper that must be released as the season is closed until May 1.

In Florida Bay and the Gulf of Mexico, there are loads of cobia, large king

mackerel, Spanish mangrove snappers.

mackerel

and

Pinfish is the go-to bait for all but the kings, which love small bluerunners fished either under a balloon or, preferably, hanging from a kite. We use #7 wire, as these kings are quite large and can bite through smaller wire. For everything else in the bay and gulf, it’s all about pinfish on a jighead.

You’ll most likely catch some Goliath grouper. Be sure to release them quickly and unharmed as they are protected.

March is a good time of year to target sharks around the flats and banks. It’s primarily blacktips, spinners, bulls and a few hammerheads to start but, as we get toward the end of the month and the waters warm up, we begin to see more lemons.

Any kind of fresh dead bait or live bait works, such as jacks, bluerunners, ladyfish and the like. Be sure to use circle hooks. We always use Owner 9/0 SSW circles for fishing for all shark species, with #7 to #8 wire and 20-lb class tackle rounding out your setup.

There are good fish to be caught, and the anticipation of that is what keeps us fish heads heading out the inlet every day! Marlin My Darlin Sport Fishing, Capt. Rick Brady, 954-7618202.

Tip for redfish fly fishing: The pink chenille stands out so well in shallow water that both fish and angler can see it a mile away. We call this lucky fly the pink “sheneneh” on my boat and if you’re targeting Redfish in insanely shallow water this pattern should get a few looks the next time you sit down at your vise.

Red grouper have been spotty near shore, but as you work deeper your chances of finding a keeper sized red grouper get better and better. Larger strips of squid, whole threadfins with the tail cut, or live pinfish are great options for the red grouper.
