Trip Summary

Being off season.We headed out in search of the skipjack tuna schools that were feeding along the dropoff recently in hope of catching some and do some live baiting but were very lucky to get a bite on the long corner lure early into the trip. We immediately knew it was a marlin because of the speed at which line was coming off the reel .Then the fish started making his majestic jumps.Our customer, Mr Thomas, was very happy as it was his first marlin.After some time the rare Striped Marlin was onboard.Lucky off season ....why not!

Fishing can be very surprising at times.....
