Trip Summary

We went out at 6a.m. Early we were able to catch 3 bonitoes and used 2 as live bait. After trolling with the live baits for some hours they werer attacked by a wahoo so we changed the technique and started trolling faster with artificial lures. We headed to an area where another fisherman told us that fish was bitting. Arriving on the spot we hooked a young tuna and immediately prepared it for a marlin and continued trolling with 2 line . The live bait and another artificial lure for the tuna. We finished the day with 3 bonitoes and about 12 yellowfin tuna .
