Sharkfishing Week

This has been a great week shark fishing with female anglers joining the Reel Candy Team. Congratulations goes out to Roxie,who at 59,  had a shark on her bucket list, with a short window to “get it done”. Roxie did an awesome job in the fighting chair and was able to subdue and release her catch to be caught another day. All sharks are released on the Reel Candy charter boats. Another shark pushing the 300 pound mark was caught by a 13 year old from Missouri.Sharkfishing Week

Summertime Fishing At It’s Best – Bonita Bonanza

This past week has produced some epic fishing adventures on the Reel Candy. Fishing almost everyday our anglers have enjoyed a mix bag of species. Along with all the bonita and sharks, our guests last week landed 3 out of 5 sailfish, several blackfin tunas, a nice wahoo, a few mahi up to 20 pounds, and jumped off a blue marlin. Plus some awesome snook on an inshore trip.

Not a bad week fishing!

Our Bonita Bonanza Reel Candy Boat Tournament has yielded almost 75 anglers. The largest Bonita for this month was 18.2 pounds caught by Ric Stern. Ric will receive a Tee Shirt from Gray Taxidermy and will be entered in next months totals for the Grand Prize of $1000. The top five places will receive prizes from our sponsors,

 Ande Line Co., Black Bart Lures, Gray Taxidermy, and Stingray Outfitters.

Kite Fishing for Sailfish

Since hurricane Matthew, the wind has been relentless. The Reel Candy, has been docked at Sailfish Marina on Singer Island in Palm Beach. This allows us to avoid the dangerous Jupiter Inlet conditions, and provides us maximum opportunities to fish those questionable days that we would normally cancel in Jupiter.The last two weeks the mahi bite has been real good with most fish in the 8-10 pound range. Most of these fish have been caught trolling small lures or sea witches on bait. The sailfish are arriving with this weeks fishing trips providing our anglers with multiple hookups on each charter. Kite fishing has been our preferred method with as many as 4 sailfish bites at one time. The Reel Candy makes every effort to promote the well being of the billfish population. We handle each caught fish carefully, and tag as many fish as possible for the Billfish Foundation. Although we understand every angler would like to have a picture with their catch holding their prized fish. We can only do this when the ideal conditions present themselves for a healthy released fish. Tagging does not interfere with the longevity of a billfish lifespan.

The Reel Candy Team is already booked for two Sailfish tournaments for 2016 – 2017. We limit the number of tournament entries in order to have sufficient dates available for our anglers that just want to enjoy a day on the water. “There’s more to Reel Candy than just Fishing”.
