We had an excellent day today !
We caught 4 out of six blue marlin today !
We started on the SE end of the Condorbank today and I just wanted to turn on a goodlooking baitball as we got our first bite on the hawaian breakfast (BlackBart)
-
after a short fight Louis caught the 550 pounder.
An hour later at the same spot a simillar size fish eate the Krakatao (Legendlures)
-
and gave us some scratches at the snooter.
The bait dissapeared and I went to the westend of the bank and the bait started looking really good hear Xacara hooked and released their 350 almost simultaniously with our
-
200 pounder on Bonzes D.S.
-
Very shortly after this we hooked another 550 pounder and caught it on
-
Bonzes scorpion.
The lure came back in the water and within 5 minutes another nice size blue attacked it again but came off. As the lures were back in the water the hawaian breakfast got another strike with the same result.
Xacara went 1/2 and Mario lost a 500 pounder on the walkaround "Marlin"
03.09.2008
We caught 2/2 today all on Bonzes D.S. ! The first one was 850pounder that crashed the lure like a rocket
-
The second fish was a250 pounder.
-
Xacara caught 2/3 200 and300 pounds and the one they missed was a nice one.

Aaaah the Azores, maybe one day I'll make it there! We had a couple videos from there that my kids watched over a 100 times...
Thanks for sharing and making us dream.
