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!
