Treasure Cay, Abacos - Bahamas Fishing Report

Bahamas White Marlin Finally getting squared away over here in the Abacos and had our first week long trip of the year. We have had unseasonably warm and calm winds over here which is rare for February. This has slowed fishing on the edge as we expect our next strong cold front this week which should get the wahoos going again. We have still managed to get our share this week as well as some dolphin. With the edge being slow we ventured offshore this week fishing off of Hopetown near the bridge. Talking with Mitch Roffer he said that was our best shot at an unheard of billfish in February. Well we weren’t out there 20 minutes when we came tight on our first white marlin of the season . Crazy to see as I don’t think I’ve ever been a part of a billfish in February. Needless to say we had a swimmer back at the dock with his first white of his life.

On the inshore front fishing has been nothing short of spectacular with unbelievable action with yellowtails, mutton snapper to 16 lbs, cero mackerel and some very nice size amberjack. We have been fishing various ledges in the Sea of Abaco from 10 to 28 feet of water and every break has had fish. It has taken nothing more than 5 minutes after putting the chum bag in. Simply AWESOME!!!!!

Treasure Cay, Abaco Bahamas

Capt. Joe reported releasing our first White Marlin of the season. Early for these critters to be showing up in the Bahamas, but we'll take it! Hopefully a sign of things to come this Spring.

Over Under Key West Fishing Report and Tarpon Preview

Our Winter fishing is in full swing here in the Southernmost City, with some exceptional action in store for anglers heading south to escape the cold, winter weather of up north. As I write this, it’s a balmy 78 degrees and the fish are chewing. Here’s what you can expect. Be sure to check out daily rates from $950, and complete Florida Keys Fishing Packages at the end of the report.

Offshore

The hot bite recently has been on blackfin tuna. Although usually at this time of year we’re netting live pilchards and chumming with them, right now, there’s no need; its some of the hottest artificial action you’ll ever encounter! Lead jigs like the Shimano Butterfly are killing the blackfin to 20 pounds. We’re running and gunning schools of fish blasting large balls of blue runner, some 2-3 inches in length. This is a great opportunity for some maximum angler participation. As many as 20 fish per day or more are possible while this bite lasts.

Abacos Fishing - Treasure Cay, Bahamas

We kicked off the beginning of our Bahamas Fishing Season this week, with a live-aboard open boat trip. On board for the beginning of the week, two of our regular NJ Tuna Customers, who were ready to get away from the tough winter that we've been having in the NE. Joe's reported that the first two days, they did a combination of Trolling for Wahoo, Bottom Fishing for Muttons and Yellowtails, and Diving for Lobsters. They boated 7 muttons in a short afternoon of fishing, with plenty of Yellowtails, then yesterday took their shot at the Wahoo, boating this nice 40 pounder. The lobsters are biging good! Limit catches available till the season closes!
