Good evening from Drop Down Sport Fish Charters located in the beautiful city St. Augustine Florida. Fall is here and even tho the water is cooling down, the offshore fishing is heating up. The longer 8-10-12 hr offshore fishing charters out of st. Augustine Florida this time of year is usually pretty solid fishing.

I like to troll in the deep for mahi-mahi,wahoo, tuna fish and sailfish in the morning on the break or wherever a good color or temperature change is present. Deep sea fishing for pelagics we use ballyhoo and lures, and even deep diving plugs.

If we are not getting any bites trolling offshore we can always switch over and bottom fish. The usual suspects like vermilion snapper, trigger fish, pink porgies, mutton snapper, red snapper, grouper, Cobia and amberjack are all deepsea fish that we will be targeting. A Fish finder rig with 80lb leader decent size circle hook and enough weight to hold the bottom is a sure way for big bottom fish. Remember big baits catch big fish!

If you are coming to town and want to go on a offshore fishing trip of a lifetime give us a call at Drop Down Sport Fish Charters here in St. Augustine Florida we will put you on the fish! Let’s go fishing!!
