Great Day
I had a full day charter on Friday. We started around the Shark Hole and it lived up to its name. In thirty minutes we had our limit of sharks and one nice King Mackeral. From there we moved out to the 24 mile area where a couple of boats were already working. Our first line out got smoked and one of the guys fought this fish for 30 minutes, eventually breaking it off under the boat. A few minutes after we lost the first fish, we were hooked up again this fish ended up being a nice AJ. Several other boats in the area hooked and caught sailfish around the 57 inch range. After catching several AJs and one huge Barracuda the bite slowed and we moved off another 6 miles.
Our first pass over the numbers showed a bottom full of fish on the Furuno Depth Sounder. We had almost drifted over the rock when one of the Penn 6/0 bent over double. From the start we new this was a good fish and 15 minutes later a nice 40+ pound AJ was in the boat. I ended up anchoring on the spot and caught a nice 25+ pound King, 25 pound Cobia, and several more AJ ranging from 25-35 pounds. By this time the seas were building and it was time to head home. Overall we had a great day with a mixed bag of all nice fish. If you would like to get into some of this action give me a call or shoot me an email. Tight Lines!!
