Headed south east out of hilton head at 630 met a surprisingly smooth sea out to triple ledge. Plan was to high speed down the ledge first line in way back at 930 seconds later while second line going we are already working a 40 plus wahoo which comes to boat fifteen minutes later. All lines back in going down the ledge few minutes later shot gun goes off again this time a nice gaffer comes to the boat. Trolled back and forth a few times with a few short strikes. Then changed out the gear and put ballys and black barts in and headed east to look for a weed line or a rip trolled out to about 600 feet and 78 degree water bright blue with 4 ft gentle rollers never finding weed lines or a rip picking up a few more gaffers and a few short strikes then the man in the blue suit shows up to inhale my black bart mahi candy on short rigger behind the teaser gave us a quick aerial show before parting ways with my 30w tiagra . Lines out again picked up a few more nice dolphin. Wind started picking up as did the waves came home in a following sea at the dock at 800
finished with 5 nice dolphin, 40 plus pound wahoo and my boat’s first marlin bite
Even when you don’t land them, it sure is exciting just to hook them!
Thanks for the report
