Miami kingfish report

Mike · 08-25-2007, 05:21 PM

Did some drifiting this morning out of haulover. Zero current but the light breeze made for a pleasant drift.
Kept 4 kings up to 20 pounds and realeased several bontias.

A pod of porpoise and about 12 frigates came into the area chasing bait and the bite shut off.

went in at 11 and dropped off filets at Florida Smoke House ($2/lb).

Not bad for an end of summer trip

Nice work.

How does the smokehouse work? I heard he keeps half the fish?

Right on Mike. Sounds like they are on the move South.

The smokehouse is the only way to go imo! I believe if you give him half your catch he will do the other half for free, but otherwise it is only $2/lb.

Usually takes a couple days and your entire catch is smoked.. soo tasty and kingfish is the best smoked.
