Trip Summary
Few minutes after being out we caught a makerel bonito then a second one. We then continued our way to deeper waters. The sea was a bit choppy. Some minutes later we came across a big rope flotting. We had a strike on the line fixed to the central rigger. After some fight a 50 pounds tuna was in. We changed technique and start trolling with rappala and caught 4 more tunas weighing from 9 to 10 pounds. We had one line cut by a wahoo. We then used the small mackerel as bait with the intention of catching a wahoo. Set the line and the downrigger....we hooked a bluepointer shark which we released after some fight.
Later in the day we went through a school of bonito but they did not want to bit. We went to a second school hook 2 and caught one bonito. We were back at the beach with some nice fish.
