Trip Summary
Trip Summary
Today we have been out with some of our friends and ex UK anglers on a mixed day fishing trip. We started today with a bit of trolling on the way down to the fishing grounds. We ran some lures way out back of the boat in the hope of picking up a barracuda or a wahoo. No bites unfortunately but it was still early in the day. We pulled in the lures and got out the light tackle and fished some baits over a few of our favoured spots. The aim of the bait fishing today was to try and catch as many different species as we could and size was not important! So we had a little species comp and the bites where plentiful. We lost count at about 9 species but it was great fun. The anglers certainly had some nice Snapper and Triggers for the BB

Some nice fish for supper too. Steven Cater here with his wife Deb enjoyed it a lot. We are now trying for tuna ….. we know where they are but will they bite??? So today we have used the light tackle and the Big Guns.

This evening we were in and amongst the Big Eye Tuna busting all over the place. Birds going crazy and fish feeding on the surface all around us.
Unfortunately we didnt get a hook up but it didnt spoil anyones day. We all had a great time and we are set to have another go tomorrow.
