Took a great group from Chapin today. Started out at the R8 Navy tower. Made a lap around it looking for a blackfin bite but no knockdowns. This is a first for me… no knockdowns, no barracuda and not even a reef donkey around the tower.
Found a nice weedline on the Deli in 170’ and picked at the dolphin all day. Everyone on board saw a manta ray free jumping. The day maker was a nice wahoo caught on the weedline when I stopped the boat to let the baits fall into a bait ball below.
Ended the day with 11 dolphin and one wahoo (40ish).
