By sun-up, we were at the DN, and immediately found a killer rip we were looking for. We were psyched with high hopes of screaming drags. Well, after two hours without a knock down, we decided to bail. There were several boats on this line, and I didn't see a whole lot of action. The water just didn't feel right, so we started trolling north East.
We were beginning to worry about our day, when we noticed a little more bait, and things seemed a little fishier. For the rest of the day, we steadily picked away at a nice box of fish. We threw a dozen or so Mahi in the box, and got a limit of wahoo before calling it a day. The spur seemed lively, despite the off-colored water.
Whitey got the best of us, as we lost two yesterday. One spit the hook after a nice 100 yard run, and the other crashed the flat line, only to miss the bait entirely.
I even got to catch a fish, as we had a double of mahi. (yes, I took the small one)
The largest Mahi weighed in @ 32#, and wahoo @ 30#. A couple dock carts full of fish made for a long day of cleaning today, but we will eat well for a while.
The boat ran great, so we were happy. Good day on the water! Looking forward to next weekend PBGFC's Lady Angler Tournament.
