Fished the boss and some of his friends on Saturday. Started on the 180 line in 200 feet. Fished an area about 1 square mile a mojority of the day. No real distiguishing features to fish except a small patch of scattered weed. Caught 27 dolphin from 8 a.m. to 12 p.m. then put the plugs out hoping for a shot at a marlin. No luck with that but we did catch two more dolphin on the plugs.
Sunday had Sammie Arnold and her crew on a charter. We started on the 320 line in 180 feet. Again, no weeds, color changes or temp breaks, but the water was a nice blended blue and there were a few fish there. Started fishing at 7 a.m. and put 6 dolphin in the box within the first hour and a half. The bite slowed down there so after talking to the Teaser, who was inshore of us in green water, we both figured there had to be a color change somewhere between us. We were right because Mark (Teaser) found a really pretty edge in 140 feet,ugly green on the inshore side and blended blue on the offshore side with a decent weedline along it. There were plenty of dolphin on it to make for a good day of fishing. I wish we could have found it earlier because we could have made a short day of it. Anyway ended up with 24 dolphin for the day. All fish on Saturday were gaffers and all but four on Sunday were gaffers. Largest were around 20lbs. and averaged about 12-15lbs.
