This morning, my group gave me the green light to head on down to the marlin grounds, so off we went. There was no shortage of billfish action.

We set out and within a few minutes, hooked and jumped off a sailfish. Next, a blue marlin made a pass at a couple of baits, but no bite. After that we had a white marlin knock out a couple of big baits, and got stung before we could switch him off to a little bait. Next, a 350 pound blue marlin crashed my teaser, and without my permission, took off with it! Ok, so the next bite was a double header whites, and finally we broke the ice with one of them. Next, I had another sail pick up and drop a dink bait, never to be seen again, and finally, we had what I'm sure was another white pulling drag, and almost in the chair before coming unglued. So you see, we had good luck, but bad luck too. During the day, we did find a couple of schools of gaffers, and landed a pretty nice catch of them, the biggest I'll say was 30. See ya Thursday!<scr
