5 Released Today — Striped Marlin Biting

Good overall action on striped marlin and dorado, with fish of solid quality showing up. The water is sitting around 76°F, with a healthy presence of flying fish and squid holding the area together. Things really came alive from around 9 AM, once the ocean flattened out. From there on, trolling produced steady action, with both marlin and dorado responding well as conditions settled. A good sign of what’s building right now, with the right water and bait in place.

The marlin bite is starting to pick back up, and we’re seeing them in good numbers again. Mixed action offshore with dorado and some wahoo in the spread. Water temps holding between 72° and 75°F, and the conditions are lining up. It’s that time when things start to turn good signs out here.

The day kicked off with dorado on the first pull, tuna followed shortly after, and we wrapped it up the right way with a striped marlin. Steady action from start to finish and good movement offshore.
