Another slick calm day, but fishing was a little scrappy.
We headed straight offshore this morning, there were a couple of rips with grass on it, but it didn't sound like many bites, so I went off looking. 500 fathoms, 85.5 degree water, and almost four knots of current. It was a lost cause, so I jogged back inshore, and above everyone else. I worked to the northeast, quite a ways, and we found several schools of
dolphin, but for the most part, they either wouldn't bite, or wouldn't stay hooked. Either way, we had to work our tails off for the twenty or so that we caught. We did catch a
wahoo trolling by a float, and I saw a
sailfish tailing, but he never rose to a bait. There wasn't too much activity anywhere today, but I'm hopeful that fishing will pick up tomorrow ahead of this cold front.
