    White Marlins---Oregon Inlet (9/25)

    Well Saturday (9/25) was likely the last day of marlin fishing for us this year out of Oregon Inlet and it was a good one. Started fishing at the 050 in 43 fathoms in some puke green 71 degree water. Didn't get the spread out before a white was behind the long rigger. Got our first release at 7:50 which was a good start for what turned out to be a slow day for the fleet. Top boat had 7 fish. While most boats continued up the line and deeper, we beat it out between the 050 and the 080 all day, never going deeper than 50 fathoms. Ended up catching 4 of 5 whites, 4 blackfins, and a handful of dolphin for a great end to our summer season. We managed to catch at least one billfish on every trip since May which I think is pretty neat on an outboard. The ride back was poor as we had a tight head sea the whole way back. Thankfully the Obsession broke it down pretty good for us. I believe 27 fish were caught in the fleet saturday. Of course it picked up again on Sunday.


    On to tuna fishing...

    Congrats on a great season! I wanted to also say thank you to the Obsession for helping us in the same way. On Sept 8 we were in on a wide open white bite and the wind picked up late in the day. We were getting our butts kicked as we started back and as Capt Ross passed us, he called on the radio and invited us to climb on the back for the ride home. Hats off to a great captain, thank you for looking out/helping the smaller/private boats!
