Take The Kids Fishing
The photos above and to the left are from recent fishing trips with kids. Shown to the left is young Sean Casey, who was visiting from West Virginia and fishing with Captain Jeremy Sexsmith during the holidays. Here he is with his first fish ever, a 15# dolphin - what a nice way to start. Their smiles are everything. If you get a chance, take a kid fishing.
VHF Live
Boaters and Fishermen, try out our live audio VHF link. When you can't get out boating yourself you can listen to the local vessels broadcasting on VHF 10/68/72/73/78/80. Just like you're out there in the midst of the fleet. Click on Listen VHF Live NOW and hit PLAY when the simulated radio appears. It's fun to listen from home or work and it will help you strategize future fishing plans. Enjoy!
WE NEED YOUR HELP
Our normal means of receiving fishing information is via VHF radio monitoring and the tracking of 8 vessels, 2 from Jupiter and 6 from Stuart, AND REPORTS THAT WE RECEIVE FROM FISHERMEN LIKE YOURSELVES. Please help us; if you have a fishing report that you would like to share with ~ 50,000 other fishermen, e-mail us with the info, add a couple of photos (jpg attachment), too. Please include your vessel name (or make), along with crew info for proper credit. Thanks.
