ANOTHER BANG-UP DAY for ADRENALINE SPORTFISHING
On Saturday we had a bachelor party on board and these guys had no idea what was in store for them. The ride out was a little snotty but the Mirage tore it up and we had a comfortable ride out. About 15-18 miles from the beach Capt Travis and I spot a pod of pilot whales breaking the surface. We pull back and let the boys have a closer look. Hey, while we are at it, lets put a few bluefish lures out for about 10 min and give it a shot. First line is not in for more than 30 seconds and we got em on. I never had a chance to set a full spread and we kept nailing them. Finished off with a tripple header and tossed over half a dozen blues in the box for shark bait later.
Capt Travis points the bow east and we are back under way. We arrive at the north tip of the poormans and we were still in a pocket of 58-59deg water. Capt Travis can sniff out the warm water better than anyone I know and about 10 min later the temp guage starts to jump. . . he throttles back and I set the spread. Today it took a little longer to find the fish as we had to wait almost 30 min for our first bite. From that moment on, it was constant action all day. It took us about 25-30 bluefin releases before we found the yellowfin. Once we weere on the yellowfin, it was more constant action with mixed catches of yellowfin and bluefin. We ended the day when the boys cried mercy and couldnt lift their arms anymore. . .but not before we bang up another tripple header of bluefin just as we are pulling the lines. It ended up being a beautiful day on Saturday as the water flattened out and we made 35kts on the way home. I will have some pics up later today. If you want to get in on some of this action, give myself or Capt Travis a call. As Bill said in another post, the boat has over 150 tuna in just 3 days of fishing. BOYS, IT REALLY DOESNT GET ANY BETTER THAN IT IS RIGHT NOW~~~ |

Pretty Work fellas.
I don't know what more you'll have to show our fellow anglers here to get two guys to man up and help us win Mako Mania. The Adrenaline team is for real folks....don't miss a single opportunity to fish with them...I know I wont. -D |
