MARLIN MONROE 5/10/17

Saltwater Offshore Reports
1

Had a pretty good day. A little bumpy on the way out. Started off in Shem Creek green water 265’. Had a Blue one on the teaser for a few but couldn’t get a hook in it. Pulled off a few bites early then hooked up on this stud in 565’. Just about spooled a fifty on the long right then came straight to the boat. 80 lb fluorocarbon did the trick!!! LOL
Ended the day with the bite just turning on late. Ended up with another 8 Dolphin in the afternoon

CONGRATS TO “A LITTLE LESS TALK” FOR THEIR AWESOME DAY!!! 3 FOR 3 ON BLUE MARLIN!!!

Catch’em up!!!

Ummm. A white sea witch, with a ballyhoo, and 80lb fluro leader.

But that would be just a wild guess.

Great job without steel! Darn nice fish. How are the trips working out? MPG?

Completely different boat. Ran out in the slop at 27 and came back in at 35. When we got inside the rocks I bumped it up to 53 and made it to the City marina in 9 minutes!!! Averaged just over 1 MPG.

Catch’em up!!!

No matter how much it hurts, how dark it gets, or how far you fall…you are never out of the fight.

Those were my wade shoes when I kayak fish with my girl. I haven’t put the final coat on the deck yet and it is slick without the non-skid. I made him wear them. I’m a size 12 and he’s an 8. LOL

Catch’em up!!!
