My spread- Stay out!!

[HOLWACHAGOT]

What kind of fish do you guys hate to see crashing your baits you've worked hard to get swimming right? What kind of unwanted fish makes the biggest mess of your offshore spread? Donkeys? Sharks? Toadfish? I hate the Barracudas myself.

1) Bluefish blitz in offshore waters.
2) Bailer mahi (smaller than the ballyhoo they chew up...)

For me its all relative. Over here I welcome wahoo and dolphin with open arms. Even at Bimini they are welcome. At Chub Cay though they make me cry. Yes its awesome seeing a half dozen 50-60 pound wahoo all skyrocket into your spread. Each rod bends over in unison then the teeth find the mono marlin leaders and they all stand back up.
Then here come the green death big and by the billions. They don't bust off so you gotta cranke each one up to get the rig back. Precious time's a wasting.
Cudas can be a pain there but if I get in em it was my fault for getting too tight to the edge so I can't get mad at them...

A fifteen pound bluefish cover up sucks almost as bad as 20 pound Alberts!

I like the sound of those problems..... Bring them all. While offshore, I sometimes feel like the fat girl at a dance, just wish someone would come and play with my baits.

damn bait eating birds raining down on you from above.... Once one is on your tail you just can't shake him. I have got a few good bites speeding up from a bird and just as he dives drop it all the way back a let the baits sink... alot of times the bird will have enough speed to over shoot the baits & sail out in front of you giving you a chance to shake him. a little turn off, back on the sticks & BAMN! there he goes....
