06/14/2014 Offshore Fishing Report Palm Beach

Carrie and I took out my mom and stepdad who were visiting from Ohio for an early morning fishing trip on Saturday. We were glad to see extremely calm seas and clear skies despite calls for threatening weather. We wanted to make sure we got them at least one fish before the weather turned so we fished off Singer Island in bonitaville but after battling two boneheads in the heat we decided to run offshore in search of Dolphin. We got to about 500' and there was a mess of weeds and boats but then we found the jackpot... a wood pallet. We put several small dolphin in the cooler ranging from 5 to 12lbs on cut bait and top water lures. Then the big bull came to eat one of our dead sardines we had freelined! Carrie battled him for 15 minutes and landed her biggest dolphin ever. We could not believe this pallet hadn't been picked over because it was almost straight out the inlet on a calm day with boats all over but we were glad it wasn't. Great day on the water with family then we headed in to peanut island to cool off.
