Calmer Weather Conditions Lead to Wahoo and More

Now that the cold front has come and gone, deep sea fishing aficionados should start to find highly agreeable fishing conditions, leading to great opportunities to potentially catch large swordfish, wahoo, and kingfish.

Prior to the arrival of the cold front and the large waves it caused, there was a fair amount of fifty pound kingfish and wahoos live baiting and trolling.  Daytime swordfishing also resulted in fishes more than 500 pounds.

In other news, urban canals turned out to be great opportunities for fly fishing during the past week, particularly for peacock bass.  One fisherman managed to catch over thirty peacocks weighing six pounds in just two days of fly fishing within the C-100 Canal and C-8 in the cities of Kendall and Miami Lakes, respectively.  In the C-9 of Miami Gardens, peacocks were also quite active, resulting in 35 peacocks caught weighing just over five pounds.

Super Tuesday is the day when voters will be voting within their own respective political parties for represent their political party in the presidential race. A growing trend has been to post on social media to share political opinions whether it’s through text, photos or sharing links. All the social media posts mean nothing if one doesn’t get out and vote. Every vote counts, many people feel there isn’t a point of voting assuming the outcome is already set or that it’s only one vote. That one vote becomes hundreds to thousands of votes. Now is the time to choose which candidate you want to represent your political party in the presidential race. Voting is a right that many Americans have fought for and continue to fight for. Being able to vote is a part of what makes this country so great, we have a voice to say who runs the government rather than being chosen for us.

Weather Fronts and Fishing

It’s always tricky to accurately determine the moment a front will hit, as just about weatherman will attest.  Any experienced angler knows that he or she should not plan their fishing trip around these fronts, but since all anglers closely monitor the weather, it’s wise to try and plan fishing trips just prior to the moment a warm or cold front is expected.

In most cases, the two to four hours before a front is about to arrive are considered ideal times for fishing.  However, it’s also possible to enjoy a great fishing trip during a rainstorm, provided the weather isn’t too violent.

To highlight an example of ideal—or so not ideal—weather conditions for fishing, let’s take a brief look at bass.  Bass activity is generally poor immediately after a cold front.  Gamefish tend to go into a feeding frenzy of sorts when a mini front approaches.  Though there is no concrete evidence to determine why it’s believed that fish may be able to perceive barometic pressure changes just prior to the arrival of a storm and, therefore, go on a feeding binge to account for less than ideal feeding conditions following the passage of a front.

Have you noticed any ideal weather conditions when out fishing?
