Fishing Boat Design & Outfitting

 Fishing Boat Design & Outfitting


So you decided you wanted to spend some time on the water fishing and you just bought a boat for a crazy amount of money and realize that its missing quite a few things you might need for fishing.

Well I can tell you a few stories of my own and possibly help you out with what is top priority and secondary and next years birthday list.

Do you need an autopilot? How about Radar? What type, how does it work? Should I trust the dealer who sold me the boat? What type of rods and reels do I need? Where do I get them? What's a crimp? How do I rig the lures? Isn't it easier just to go to the grocery store to get my fish? Yes to that last question, but are we fishing to eat or is this the ultimate big boy hobby? 

I have a lifetime of fishing and boating experience and I am also a USCG licensed captain. I have outfitted many boats over the years including my latest Daisy. You can get an idea of how Daisy is equipped at http://ejscharters.com . 

If you are looking for help give me a call or send me an email.

Fishing report Tuesday November 16, 2021

  Fishing report Tuesday November 16, 2021   We left Alsdorf Park in Pompano at 6:30 am this morning. It was 63 degrees but I hardly noticed in my Gore-Tex suit. NOAA was spot on with the forecast.   To say we caught a little spray might be an understatement but everyone had fun and was well dressed. Nothing much on the fishing side. Lots of baitfish jumping in close and plenty of Bonita to keep busy on. A few Barracudas out around 400.   Jordan Schleider USCG Captain EJS Fishing Charters http://ejscharters.com 561-447-7148 600 E Palmetto Park Rd Boca Raton FL 33432

Fishing Report for 11/12/2021

Fishing Report for 11/12/2021 Leaving out of Alsdorf Park in Pompano Beach at 6:30 am. Mostly cloudy and some heavy storms all around. Seas were 2-4 every 5 seconds and not much wind. 2 of us on the trip running 7 lines total. Trolling the ledge produced a small Barracuda on a planer with a pink sea witch and a strip. The Nomad Diver 165 got hit next around 500’ headed out. It ended up being a very small sail, maybe 36” tip to tail. Next the Yo-Zuri minnow got nailed at 550’ by a 2-foot Wahoo. Not exactly dinner for a week but I’ll take what I can get. We trolled out to 800’ followed a few frigates turned back in and at 600’ started getting hard hits and runs on the planer and the Nomad. We slowing brought in 2 big sails and decided to call it a half day.  Overall not bad, we had fun, got some good hits, stayed relatively dry, and got some Wahoo for dinner.

Fishing Report @EJS Fishing Charters for Friday October 16, 2021

 Fishing Report @EJS Fishing Charters for Friday October 16, 2021   We left from Alsdorf Park in Pompano Beach at 6 am. It was dark and just a few minutes past high tide. 75% moon and a light NE wind. The conditions were excellent, and I was hoping for a boat load of Wahoo for my customers by 8 am. I was using a new setup Nomad DTX Minnows 165, 200 and 220 plus a Yozuri Bonita. 4 lines highspeed at about 10 knots. These lures in the past, like my Rapala’s tend to get tangled and ruin your morning, but I have been working out a strategy with a friend to fix that. I spent 2 hours zipping in and out of every Pompano reef from 130 to 350 feet and had not a single tangle. That part of the trip was great. The bad news is we didn’t hit a single Wahoo. We picked up a few Backfins and turned out. I added a few squids and feathers to the outriggers and picked up more tuna and started getting Mahi hits. Some decent keepers but nothing worth bragging about. My customers were hap...
