Wahoo...Gaffer Dolphin 3/18/12

Went to G hole this AM to try to get in on the “bite”!
Was slower than expected…
Went 3 for 5 on Wahoo (largest 50+) about 3 miles north of G hole.
Caught a Bull and Cow together on a rip with temp break of 1.5 degree running W to E. They were both strong gaffers which I have not encountered in 2 years (gaffers that is). Let’s all hope this is the sign of a productive pelagic season to come. Reports from the Bahamas and Florida from friends of mine are encouraging as well!

all bites were between 190 and 230ft
water 72 - 74.5
planer rod caught 2 hoos.
black and orange lure was productive for both species.
(not one strike on black and red??!) my most productive Hoo color.

Fish On!

Thanks for your INFORMATIVE report. We fish the hole on Sunday with similar result except we couldn’t find any decent temp breaks. We had three gaffers and a hoo.
