Sail fish - When the winter cold fronts move into southeast Florida, the wind howls from the northeast and the edge of the northern flowing gulfstream turn feather-white, it's sailfish time! During this time the pods of baitfish are blown in closer to shore, huddled in paralyzed masses in fear of the feeding "spindle beak". Sailfish can achieve sizzling speeds with up to 50 knots being quoted, but tire quickly and are generally considered a great light tackle species. The sailfish is famous for spectacular aerial acrobatic displays. | ||||||

Dorado - Mahimahi and dorado are common names for the brilliantly colored dolphin that is never disappointing and always fun. Vivid blues and greens shot with flashes of iridescent gold, a rainbow of colors displayed on the sides of an excited school of dolphin greyhounding across the wake to attack trolled surface baits can cause an over zealous angler to grab the rod before the fish ever strikes. Dolphin are most often the offshore beginner's first sportfishing experience and are fun for the whole family. Fishermen rarely tire of catching dolphin because of it's reputation as a tough, furious fighting aerialist when hooked. The dolphin is an excellent table fish. |

Wahoo - The WAHOO!! "The speedster of the Sea", has the reputation of being a loner and is rarely found in schools. Its range is worldwide in tropical, warm temperate waters where it prefers temperatures of 70-86� F. Capable of speeds approaching 50 MPH, the wahoo, once hooked can thrill any angler with runs of blistering speeds and high leaps with an almost splashless re-entry. Ernest Hemingway preferred the wahoo to all marine game fishes for its flavor , but like all sportfish, the wahoo is best released. | ||||||
