Today we had Dino from Ft. Myers,Harold from Kentucky and Tim from Connecticut. We stared afew minutes late getting off the dock but that didn’t stop the Lady Pamela 4from catching fish. Every morning when the Bonitas are around we cut freshtrolling bait, which is key this time of year. We trolled for the first twohours of the trip catching a few King Mackerels and some Bonitas. The trollingwasn’t red hot so I decided to try shark fishing in 350 feet of water right offthe coast of Fort LauderdaleBeach. Leo rigged three big Bonitas with two 11/0 hooks in each bait and thethree 130 lb. rods. He sent one down 350 feet, the second 150 feet down and oneon the surface. There was 2.5 knots of north current and it looked pretty goodfor getting a bite so we waited it out. After 50 min went by, I was talking toLeo on the bridge of the boat when the 150 foot bait started bouncing. Leostared reeling and I gunned the boat ahead to set the hook. At the same exacttime, there was a hammer head on top chasing the top bait, it was chaos, butvery exciting. Leo dropped back the bait and hooked the fish, we now had adouble header with two giant hammer head sharks. Tim fought one, Harold foughtthe other and they ended the day with a great catch and an awesome story fortheir friends.
