Mahi & Sailfish in Shallow water off Islamorada {catch and cook}

Winter time is here and that's when you see nice mahi show up in as shallow as 130ft depth off Islamorada. The sailfish are around too in this Fishing Catch and Cook!

Mahi off Islamorada is very common. Especially when offshore fishing around the Islamorada humps. There's something special about fishing off Islamorada and just fishing in the florida keys in general. In the winter time the mahi move closer to the reefs edge, I've seen mahi in as shallow as 80ft before!
We are right at alligator reef tower located in Islamorada and fishing offshore by the alligator reef tower will product a bite when you have the right baits at the right time
This is a catch and cook. But the cooking part is a little fast, sorry! Lots of more in depth catch clean and cooks coming to the South Florida Fishing Channel.

We catch mahi and sailfish on ballyhoo as bait.
We slow trolled the ballyhoo above reefs and wrecks and that's where we got hooked up on both the mahi mahi and sailfish. Keep the boat just in idle gear, enough to keep your bow into the current and the baits behind the boat.

[@anagonzales9140]

[@FATHERSOFBASS]

I really love that you did this idk it might be me giving you a lot of credit BUTT IT SEEMS LIKE YOU INCORPORATED YOUR VOICE AND INTERACTION WITH US MORE WITH THESE VIDS WITH OTHER PEOPLE AND NEW EXPERIENCES JUST FOR US????

[@gungadinn]

If you're going to show the cooked up catch, you need to send to the first 25 commenters one Mahi steak and one piece of fish cooked as served in the restaurant. I'm in the mid -Atlantic and nothing is going on unless you want to go off into rough water for Rockfish aka Striped Bass. It might be with the cost if the limit would cover the fuel cost.

[@FarmerFpv]

Is it true you can catch Jellyfish with peanut butter? Can you try it next time you're out? I heard snappers love it too because it reminds them of sea urchins.

[@KnottyDigger]

That gets a HiHaRya, the Chicago boys will never forget that time. It was epic.From the best cast netter ever, pancake guy forward incredible. Think they left snow for that Yea HookMeUp

[@vlogcity1111]

[@fungus4758]

Way to slay them mon. Always said a sh!tty day on the water is a good day fishing. I'm waiting to hear comments on your big boy room now 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Too bad the wahoo broke off 🤷 All the best in 2022 to you and Caitlyn. Fungus

[@FATHERSOFBASS]
