Rough and rainy, but great fishing!

Trip Summary

Despite tough conditions (rain, wind, rough seas, and screaming current), we managed to get the job done! While trolling, we caught several Bonita, Blackfin Tuna, a Spanish Mackerel, a nice Baracuda, and an Atlantic Sailfish! Shortly after releasing the Sailfish, our charter guests wanted to try for something even bigger. So we set up near a wreck and put out the big baits. About 40 minutes later, the tip rod bent over, and we started doing battle. After another 30 minutes or so, we landed a big Sandbar Shark. Our guests were thrilled! Sometimes bad weather can make for amazing fishing!
