Today was action packed, lots of great fishing PLUS a slick calm ocean!

By request, we started out looking for dolphin this morning. We caught about half a limit out of the first school we found, and then it was taking me some time to find another good school. I was trolling down a grass line with a couple of nylons out, and one big bait in a long rigger, just in case. Well, there he was, about a 250 pound blue marlin, made a beautiful strike on my rigger bait, and here we go. After an awesome air show, he settled down, and I got back on him pretty quick. Just as Ben was reaching for the wire, the wire broke down by the hook. Five feet away. What a heart breaker. Anyway, we found another school and finished up with our dolphin. We caught a 35 pound wahoo trolling off, and not long after we got over the hundred, we caught a sailfish. Well, I knew what was coming next, and I was right. About an hour later, we released a white marlin. I trolled back in to the depth where we saw our blue, but never had another encounter. Before heading in, we did catch a 41 pound citation wahoo. It was a great way to finish up the day, but that blue marlin fight is engraved in my mind!
