Was lucky to catch a ride with a friend of a friend yesterday. started in about 250’ around the 200 line. Lost a nice hoo off the bat next to the boat then it got slow for a few hours. pushed deeper and found some life in 1300’ and picked at the dolphin. ended up with 12 in the box.
Had a mystery fish grab the marlin mudflap teaser and pull 30 yards of line off the reel before letting it go. nobody got an eye on it.
We foul hooked manta ray. Saw them swimming on the surface and right through the spread then bam, the shotgun connects with its wing and it starts pulling drag. It went straight to the bottom and sat there and we busted it off trying to raise it.
Also saw a bunch of spinner dolphin doing acrobatics which was a first for me.
