    WOW. unreal white marlin fishing.

    Well, we had an awesome day yesterday, we got 22 whites. And I was running out this morning thinking there was no way we were topping that. We stopped short of the spot we fished yesterday by about 12 miles because Dale, on the Reel Joy, gave us a holler and told us he was fighting a triple. Anyhow, it was right around the 750 square. It took about 35 seconds to see our first fish. And so it went all day long. We had 12 by 10 am, and 27 at 11:30. I think we let 40 go by 2. We caught a quad a five banger, and a few triples, to go with alot of singles and doubles. Much praise is needed for my mate John Prather, and guest mate Anthony Pino. Awesome work was done in the cockpit today. The whole crew down there had it goin on. My anglers today were my older bro, Jeremy, and my Mom and Dad. We ended up goin 57 for about 80-85 bites. It was absolutly ridiculous fishing action. It seemed like the fish pushed a little inshore to me. The bite slowed in the early afternoon and we only had single bites late in the day, and the fish stopped coming to the teasers and were only coming to long riggers. Late in the day most bites were coming sinking baits in a sharp turn after marking the marlin. I am ready to get back in the morning. Hope they bite again.

    Awesome work Jon, and twice as awesome that you had the family in on the mix. We'll be out there tomorrow on Kunzler's rig, if we saw a third of your action we'd be grinning...

    Congrats on shattering the record as well.
