We started at 7a.m. While pulling the 3rd line in the water..bang...the elastic on the short rigger line broke. It was a wahoo. After some fight the fish was caught. We then moved to deeper waters after trying to catch some more wahoos. We met some schools of skipjacks but no bite. Later on during the day we had a good fight against a big skipjack that we caught.

Both took just a piece of the bait. Later on we tried back with artificial lures but no bite. We came back to the lagoon with a good size wahoo for dinner.
