    Half day trip with Captain Peter and First Mate Ken

    4 Hour Trip – Fuel Included (AM) on March 14, 2022 • 6 adults

    A low front made for and interesting day on the water as the wind and seas were mixed with 7 to 11 swells and 2 to 3 feet of wind chop. Weather was warm and the ride was fun for those with a stomach for the ocean. The experience of the crew was excellent. The crew locked in on the fish by following the signs of nature. A large female Frigate Bird was circling not far off from our location. We turned and headed that way. Boom we were on the fish. We pulled a male and female Mahi Mahi as we crossed under the bird. Turns out having eyes in the sky is an excellent way to fish. Blackened Mahi Mahi for dinner. Thank you Peter and Ken!
