Ran down to the 560 line this am. Made 18-19 kts. Passed the ledge looking for something. The water stayed same temp (70.5) til 270 feet. Slowly started climbing and we put lines out. trolled towards the 226 hole and found 75.8 water. Caguth 2 dolphin there, but the current had the waves quite large and we trolled back inshore and to the NE. Saw plenty of birds and flying fish. Surprised to have not seen more fish. Made it up to the 300 in about 300’ before we picked up and ran home at @22kts. Caught one wahoo and had another fish with sharp teeth get away just before we reeled in lines for the day. The boat handled great in a big ocean, very stable fishing platform. Going back at it again Fri and Sat. Maybe Thur too.

Most of the rods were in the piut by that time but the few that were left did fine. Well I guess fine I wasnt watching them but they were still in the holders when we got back. The fish were of good to decent size. One dolphin was @10lbs. the other @25lb, and the hoo was close to 40lbs. We got lucky on our angles of attack. Both directions in and out we were in trough slighty quartering the sea and the ride was great. Really pleased with how the boat handled the ocean.

Yes Skin man I have heard of that boat. They really catch em good from what I here. I think that the key to a good day of fishing is having proper vittles. Nobody can really focus on the task at hand without proper nourishment.
