    MHC to WB Good to be Home

    Well we fished home on Saturday from MHC started out on the 450 in 45 fathoms on a nice grass edge and temp break. Lots of life skipjacks, tinker macks and sardines along with tons of flyers. Looked to be the place to start after a few minutes mahis then a wahoo bite. After several hours we caught 6 mahis and a 40 + wahoo had a window shopper sail that would not commit after several turns. Around 12:30 we decided to move life had disapeared and bites were few and far between. A 17 mile jaunt down the break put me at the scallop bed which was a little lively and cooler than the water i had run through on the way down 86-87 deg. to 84.5 deg. Fished there the rest of day and banged out 4 more wahoos and several more bites. Saw a free jumper sail and no bites other than the hoo's. At the end of the day we ended up with 5 wahoos and 6 mahis a good day of fishing by any standards.

    Better than good John, a great day of fishing. Were you running wire?
    It will be good to see the Trophy at her usual spot again.

    Nick we were fishing a modified spread 4 wire wahoo rigs and 3 dinks squid chain , islander chain and a dredge. Still hoping to get those sailfish bites. Bill also enjoyed being tied up along with you nice to have made a new friend or 2 on d dock. We'll probably be back there again next year.

    Hope those Costa 580's are helping you see all that life that you are dragging the rigs through.
