We had a great time. The water was a little rough, but it didn’t matter, because we were catching. We met up at 6:00, were on the boat by 6:30, and heading out of the marina. We stopped to get some ice and bait, and then we were gone. We went around the point and fished along the shoreline in the Pacific. We never went too far from shore, which kind of surprised me, we could always see land (probably no more than 1 mile or 2 away). But that is where the fish were. We targeted Mahi Mahi at first. We all hooked up on a Mahi Mahi (there were 4 of us fishing), and we all caught one before the sun came up over the horizon. We continued trolling along the coastline for a while, and ended up with 14 Mahi Mahi’s (a few were small, and we threw them back, and 1 monster spit the hook while the 1st mate was trying to get him with the gaff). Then the 1st mate switched lures, the boat turned around to head back down the coast and we targeted Marlin. My 14 yr old hooked up on a 7 foot striped marlin that gave him a good fight, we spotted some dolphins that were out hunting, and we followed them around for a while hoping to hook into something else that was hunting the same school as the dolphins, and my 16 yr old hooked up on a yellowfin tuna, and then the icing on the cake, my 73 yr old dad hooked up on an 8’9” Blue Marlin. Unfortunately that one swallowed the hook, so we couldn’t release him. If you ever get a chance to see a Blue Marlin in the water, they are SO COOL… it looked like it was hooked up to a battery, the colors were so vibrant and bright, it looked like it was glowing! Luckily, that was at the end of the day, so we trolled our way back into the marina.
