Marlin Eats Mahi

[reel fishy]

Fished out of Jupiter Inlet yesterday with my buddy Dave. Found some nice weed patches in 800' and pitched out some live bait. All of the sudden some p-nuts erupted from under a weed patch jumping in every direction. Next thing I see is a huge explosion just behind one airborne mahi. As he hit the water we saw a blue one about 300lbs crush another mahi in mid air. My jaw hit the floor and I just stared in awe. Unfortunately the biggest gear onboard was a TLD15 with 30lb mono. No chance to get that one in if we hooked up. We did catch a p-nut from under that patch with some old bill rash up from his tail. Looks like that school had been attacked before, must be tough to be a fish. Caught plenty of schoolies (around 30 or so, kept only 8) to about 8lbs and a cow that weighed 22lbs. Made it back in the inlet caught a snook on the way by the jetty on the last couple of baits. Put the boat on the trailer at dark, what a fun day. Sorry no pics, digital is still broken.
