Any Suggestions?

[dmoore65]

I've never done offshore fishing and im looking for a drift boat that can put me on some yellowtails and nice muttons..any suggestions for boats taking off from Hillsboro inlet?

The best drift boat in Broward County is the Sea Legs III. If you want to catch snapper, go on that boat. If you want to catch a lot of snapper, go on that boat at night.

Helen S is out of Hillsborough and has been doing great on snapper.

Sea legs is like 38.00 for a half day morning or afternoon. Don't know for,sure about the Helen S but its probably pretty close. You can bring all your own gear and bait on all of them. For bottom fishing, a fish finder or a knocker rig usually works pretty well. For kings, king jigs rigged with triple hooks and a ballyhoo, or a double hook knocker rig seems to work as well. Most of the boats produce pretty well with 3 hook dropper loop, or Chicken rigs. Search it here, there is a whole thread on how to tie these different rigs. Bottom line on drift boats, try everything until something works. Never stick with one rig or,bait unless its working.
