Billfish Weekend Dominates Destin Fishing Scene
Off the Florida Gulf coast Destin anglers report crystal clear water and strong catches. Capt. Charlie House’s Mary Helen landed a 190-pound Blue Marlin for Pete Blackwell of Andalusia, AL while Lady Daniel released a 70-pound White Marlin and multiple dolphins and wahoos joined other boats. Across boats, anglers set or tied records with White Marlin, Blue Marlin, and King Mackerel catches. The Miss Frances first-time owner Wally Conerly celebrated with his 43-pound White Marlin and a 25th wedding anniversary purchase. The bottom bite remained good with Amberjack and Black Snapper. Let's go fishing.
