Myself, partsman, L&S, Dieselman, and four strong young men left the jettys at 4:45 in the lines in at 7:45 picked at them all day ended up with 4 dolphin, 55 pound wahoo, roughly 25 cuda (tagged and released L&S style)and a sail, wanted to go for quantity, but pallet proved that was too easy, so me, partsman and L&S decided to go for quality!

What did the wahoo hit on, and was it a surface bait or planer? thanks.
Caught him on a large purple and black Islander.

I heard of this 80# wahoo as well, but one can easily understand why you’d release him if they’d ever tasted sailfish. No need to take up the whole fish box with an overgrown king when you’ve got to keep that sail cool.

quote:I never thought of the limited fish box capacity.That would surely explain why they had to release it once they committed to boating the sail.Sail is definitely better if kept below 38 degrees until consumption.Seems they should add another fish box on the EarlyBird ,since they only target the larger "quality" fish.I'm sure someone at the dock would have gladly taken that 80# wahoo, even if they didn't want it.

So I miss estimated the wahoo, but at least I got proof we caught them! I have yet to see a picture of the thirteen slinger dolphin, 20 pound wahoo, and mercury missile, pallet claims they caught!

Are you saying that him slicing his hand open with the filet knife is not proof enough?

Chunky!
I believe that it is pretty obvious that the point has been proved. It is past the point of giving you lessons and/or advice. The best thing you can do, would be to stay in Clarendon County and continue to volunteer during your spare time fighting fires.
BUT, anytime you would like to go fishing, you are more than welcome to ride with us and keep us a cold Corona open at all times. Once you have mastered that skill, you may then be able to operate the i-pod. But, I will have to check with Phin on that one.
P.S. I have seen bigger ballyhoo than that sail.
