Mahi hunting
It was a great day on the water. Weather was perfect, the ocean was perfet.We did a 5hr morning trip. 5 people on the trip. I didn't know what to expect on a deep ocean charter. I expected to throw our lines in the water and catch fish like you see on YouTube. As the Captain stated, we are hunting. Captain took us offshore at over 1,000 feet, we were hunting Mahi. We were looking for seaweed patches where Mahi would be. We started trolling, caught several Bar Jack but released them, then the Mahi started hitting. We all caught some small ones that had to go back. Then they started hitting. We all caught one. There was a long time the action stopped. We started heading back to shore and then we seen birds so Captain turned the boat in that direction, we rode over Mahi, a sea turtle and more Bar Jacks, it was amazing to see these creatures in the water. Captain tried hard to get us on spots. This is a large ocean not a fish tank. You have to keep that in mind. The largest fish caught was a Barricuda, unfortunately you can't keep and eat them. Final take home was 6 Mahi. I would recommend at least 5hr trip. Time flies when your hunting. Overall great time on the water. Would recommend for a once in a lifetime experience.
thanks for the kind words and perfectly said!!!! hope to see you guys again!
