SEVEN yes  that's right 7 Sailfish Caught and released to catch another day! Fantabulous , I mentioned in my last report that I thought it was going to be a great year for the sails and it just might be right on the money!
There was also a smattering of dolphin, blackfin tuna , bonita , kingfish and yellowtail snappers in the mix as well with main effort put in on the Sails!

PCI fishing report on Sun--10/30/16

Live from the Post Card Inn in Beautiful Islamorada Florida---the weather is starting to improve slowly but those that did venture out on the briny deep had a pretty good day yesterday--there were dolphin tuna, bonita and snappers to  caught--there were a few pictures sent to me and I will put them up at the end.
Just to let everyone know the annual Islamorada Sailfish tournament  is coming up in just about a month and indications so far seem to be that it is going to be a good year for the old spindle beaks!
So even if you don't fish the tournaments  a sailfish charter with one of our charter boats would be a fun way to spend the day--when you see that first tail walking jump , you will be hooked too!
 On the reef there will be snapper, king fish. grouper, mackerel ,jack crevelle , also this time in Dec/Jan there are Marauding Wahoo some of them quite large and don't forget the cobia --these winter time fish are all on the Charter boats radar!  So come on down!
Here are some pictures for you
