3 trips straight.
The following day we had talked about fishing east bay just for the weak stomach but the seas had calmed so all 6 decided to suck it up and go for the tuna. This turned out to be a good move because we put a few in the box. We found a shrimp boat and hit it first. It held bonito and maybe if we persued it we might have found other fish. Without wasting time we run to the tuna grounds. Once I get set up working the boat I have very little chance to use the camera. Nobody got sick except the fish we put on ice. The amberjack were big and so aggerssive that they were beating the tuna to our baited lines. We released about 10 amberjack that were over our limit of 6 in the boat. Once at the dock we just dumped them on the dock. and hung them up for the bragging rights. Today we had 4 guys with us. We ran to the same place. No detours this time. It was game on from the start. We only made one drift because the courant changed and we kind of stayed in the same place. We had a lot of action with kings biting us off and bonito battling our fishermen. In between we managed 6 or 7 yellowfin and 2 blackfin along with 4 amberjack. We managed 2 good yellows with the biggest being about 80 pounds. The blue water moved out and a good weed line formed up. We trolled it without even a sniff. The line held ballyhoo and mahi. most of the mahi were very small but we did get one at the minimum size we will keep. It was kind of like an early summer day. Warm, flat seas, and fish in the box. Only thing different is we still have FOG. Life is Good! Fishing is not a matter of life or death. It's more important than that. CAPT HOOP -- OUR FREEDOM |
