Sailfish on a SeaCraft
Here is a picture of a Sailfish
Headed out of Port Canaveral, FL Tues with the curtains up and the throttles down. Drifted bait under a balloon that got inhaled by a sailfish. About 45 min later, pulled him in the boat, shot pictures, and released. That fish was caught on a med penn spinner (don't remember the exact model) with 20# powerpro, and 30# mono leader. What you call a real fair fight Sailfish along the side of the boat  Sailfish posing for pictures

Re: Sailfish on a SeaCraft
John, very nice fish, and on 20# definitely a fair fight. It sure is hard looking at pictures like that when it's 38 and cloudy, knowing there's another 4 months before the boat is in again. My only salvation is knowing I'll be in Sanibel April 18-26. Any of you FL guys have charter suggestions for the Sanibel/Fort Myers area?

Re: Sailfish on a SeaCraft
scott, check floridasportsman.com. the general fishing forum is a good place to start, also the southwest florida forum on the message boards will show what is happening. wouldn't count on catching a sailfish, but a nice red or snook should make ya happy. bring along your sunscreen.

Re: Sailfish on a SeaCraft
Ron, thanks for the info. I've been to Sanibel 2 times already and did some fishing for reds and snook, so I'm not looking for (or expecting) any sails, although that would be nice. Two years ago I chartered a guy down there but wasn't too thrilled with him. I'd like to get over to the Atlantic side one of these days and land one of them sailfish.

Re: Sailfish on a SeaCraft
Hey,
If any of you guys are down south this winter and want to fish, let me know. I can't garrantee a Sailfish, but there are quite a few opportunities for some good fishing in the winter. I usuall fish out of Port Canaveral, Sebastian Inlet, and Clearwater from time to time.
