My Time Sport Fishing

A great day of fishing with great friends! Left the dock at 4:30 AM on a 1 ft. sea fishing day. Looked at the satellite and determined the best line should have been just South of the Deli and that was confirmed by talking to folks on the radio on the way out who confirmed that(they had friends who had stayed out fishing the night before). We found a good line about 67 miles out. Had a hit immediately and missed. Lost another nice fish at the boat, and landed a nice 12 lb dolphin. We worked our way south to an off-shore reef in 200 ft of water we had never fished before. I figured it was the nearest hard bottom to the weedline we were working and sure enough as luck would have it, we pulled a nice wahoo and multiple dolphin with a 30 lb. bull out from under the marker buoy. The bull dolphin almost jumped into another boat encroaching on our catch as the captain yelled at them to pay attention and turn away... the rest of the crew even chimed in! Way to go crew!

Fished R-8 on the way back and stopped at R-7 to shoot some sheepies with the bow. Great laughs that was and the cobia swimming near the boat just knew we had the bow? Don't forget the tabletop sunfish with 10 large cobia all under it and over it... what a onetime sight that was. Normally they'd swim right over to the boat without even a thought. We will get them next time as this was the first time PGP tried to bow fish. It will be well worth the fine tuning and I can't wait until next time!

Nice dolphin by the mystery fisherman, and it was his first time ever going out that far to catch fish! Good job RP!

And there's always fish boy to be there at just the right moment as can be seen in this double up by PG and fishboy and of course the photo opp at the dock. Don't forget FB lined in a nice dolphin! We had all 8 rods going off, one right after the other!
Great day !
