Watch George Poveromo’s World of Saltwater Fishing

Poveromo teams up with World Wide Sportsman offshore captain Ryan Wenzel, for fast-paced action with yellowtail snapper. The Florida Keys are noted for superb yellowtail fishing and the Islamorada reefs are certainly no exception. However, with as much angling pressure as these fish are under, fooling them is a matter of chumming heavily, using light leaders and tiny hooks, selecting and sizing th

One luxury of fishing in the lower Florida Keys during the fall is that it becomes a lightly-pressured destination. However, game fish are still here for the taking. Poveromo and Andrew Tipler team up to fish the local shallows and flats around Cudjoe Key, aboard Poveromo's Shallow-Water MARC - a Mako 21 LTS powered by Mercury's new naturally-aspirated, 225hp, V6 Four Stroke outboard. This action-

Poveromo takes drag racing legend Darrell Gwynn and Hooker Electric's Trista Evans fishing for Spanish and king mackerel out of North Miami Dade's Haulover Inlet. Schools of these mackerel migrate into the area after the first few cold fronts of the year. If you know where to go and how to live-chum them into a feeding frenzy, a fun and action-packed day is virtually guaranteed. North Miami, inci

Numerous ships and galleons met their demise along this shallow, sandy stretch of bottom which divides the Atlantic and Gulf of Mexico, west of Key West, in the Florida Keys. The rusting hulks have since transformed into habitats and migratory points for a variety of game fish. Poveromo and Mark Schmidt set forth for one of the most sought-after game fish on these wrecks - the permit. They also pl

During winter and spring, South Florida's top offshore sport is live-baiting for pelagics. Aboard the MARC VI, Poveromo and Ben Sharpe present live baits from fishing kites, while concentrating over certain depth zones, bottom structures and along color changes. This highly-visual episode showcases the finer-points of consistently raising and catching fish from kites, including selecting leader st

Poveromo joins up with legendary Florida Keys backcountry guide Jim Willcox, to catch fish strictly on lures and light tackle. Using Rapala top water and mid-running hard baits and Storm 360GT soft baits, they score snook, tarpon, Goliath grouper, cobia, bluefish, Spanish mackerel, jacks, ladyfish and mangrove snapper. They fished around mangrove shorelines, in channels and over shallow bottom str

Spring and early summer are heralded as the prime dolphin period in the Florida Keys. However, unbeknownst to tourists and visiting anglers, late summer and early fall can also yield very consistent fishing - with far less angling pressure. In this informative and thrilling episode, Poveromo and South Florida radio icon Paul Castronovo search out dolphin during the middle of September. Castronovo

One of the most intriguing and challenging of all saltwater fisheries is the annual Cubera snapper spawn off North Key Largo, in the Florida Keys. During July, August and into September, large schools of big Cuberas gather around pieces of a local wreck and assorted bottom debris. This is a heavy tackle/nearly locked-down-drag style of fishing, where live lobsters (in season) are lowered to Cubera

During Poveromo's visit to the Venice Marina, the local anglers had been experiencing a solid run of dolphin (Mahi) the likes of which they hadn't seen in years, in terms of both size and quantities. Naturally, Poveromo and Billy Wells cash in on the action! Between trolling along weed lines and pitching lures and baits on light spin tackle along the thicker patches and debris, the action is fast

Poveromo and his MARC VI return to the Venice Marina to chase after tunas with Captain Billy Wells. For fast-action with blackfin and yellowfin tuna, Venice is the place. Poveromo and Wells kept the rods bending by drifting and slow trolling live baits around offshore oil rigs. As simple as catching tunas here may appear, there are distinct thoughts involved in selecting leaders and hooks as well

Poveromo and Jeff Malone go in search of resident tarpon in the waters surrounding Marathon, in the Florida Keys. They stop at an ocean-side channel, where Malone live-chums a school of tarpon into a feeding frenzy. After releasing several fish, they make a run inside a small creek, where they score juvenile tarpon on Rapala hard baits. Poveromo and team stay at the Hyatt Faro Blanco, with the Sha

Poveromo takes Debbie Hanson, a noted outdoors journalist, freshwater guide and women's fishing advocate, on an offshore fishing trip deep into the Bahamas. Basing from the Treasure Cay Beach Hotel, Marina & Golf Resort in the Abacos, a 160-mile crossing for the duo from Palm Beach Inlet, they focus on bottom fishing and offshore trolling. After scoring her first ever Bahamas fish - a re kwfishing
