After snotty start out of jetties ran 20kts out to SW Banks. First lines in water around 8:30. Fist fish was cuda then followed by a nice 30 pd dolphin. Picked up another nice gaffer cow and things shut down. Pushed off towards ledge and around 12 had a nice blue charge the baits. Finally hooked on the way back and the show started. Fish put on one of the greatest aerial displays I have seen. She was greyhounding next to the boat and ran 400 yards of line like it was nothing. Finally got line tight and settled in for the fight. Fought for 30 minutes and got fish to 20 ft off side of the boat and watch the hook slide off the bill. Was very heartbreaking. Fish was around 350-400. Put lines back out and picked up 2 more dolphin. Seas laid down nice and ran in at 30 kts. There was a sporty fishing close to us at ledge and they had 2 nice wahoo boated while we fighting blue. I think I heard on the radio one was 50 or 55lbs. Day total was 4 dolphin, cuda, and pulled hook on a blue. Not a great day but a very exciting day.
