Thanks
Conditions were definitely in our favor, but the fish were not, we didnโt get any hookups, and we didnโt get a single bite. But the best part was the captain and first mate tried their best to get us on fish all day and always kept moving if there was nothing in the area, also fished pasted our time to try and get us on something. Was still worth the trip!
We had a slow day, with a few small tuna caught early and a few wahoo missed.ย There were quite a few sharks in the area (atypical) that were keeping the fish down deep.ย Boat is big, wide, and stable. - great for larger groups and rougher seas.ย Captain Humberto and deckhand Eduardo are a great team and if there are fish in the area they will put you on them.ย There was not a lot of chit chat, other than normal pleasant conversation - which I prefer.
Despite the rain and some significant swells (in my opinion, lol) that kept the boat ROCKING, we still managed to nab a barracuda and an albacore!ย The Captain did an amazing job finding the bites and his first mate, Adrian, did a phenomenal job working the deck!ย I would LOVE to be back out with these guys in calmer waters. THEY REALLY KNOW THEIR STUFF!

So fishing was slow for the first 4 hours and 2/3 of my gang was feeling seasick.ย Then the captain and first mate changed our fishing approach by using different bait.ย Wow we started being too busy to be worried about anything but if we could get the Wahoo in without being eaten by the sharks that were attacking them as well.ย Fun and we had plenty of Wahoo for a great grilling of our catch that afternoon.ย A trip to remember.
Capt Humberto did a great job with me and my boys.ย The boat was great, well stocked, and comfortable.ย Unfortunately both of them got sick pretty early on as the waves were really choppy - something very common in these waters so you need to know that going in and prepare accordingly.ย (Dramamine the night before too!).ย We did catch two kingfish before cutting it short though which was awesome!
Itโs was a pleasure having you aboard Double Hook.
