Late report from June 5 and 6, 7th and 9th. Headed out friday night on the silverton to find nice seas around 2 feet. Pointed the bow ssw after clearing perdidio pass. Line in about 10 miles south of ram powel, trolled dirty mixed blue green till 15 miles south of Horn mountain. Found some good water with some current and scattered grass. Mr. Marlin came and saw us around 10am, ate the short flat missed and then ate the short rigger- 30 wide with a tuna candy- about 400 yrds of line later and a great air show fish must have landed on the line and cut it. Lines back out hour later short flat is hammered 40 seconds of clicker screaming and then blank- nice blue gone. About 2 hours after that and a few wahoo later rat blue is dogging the baits, left long rigger, left flat, right flat, right short rigger---- pod of flying fish, this guy lit up and gave us a show chasing flyers totally out of the water right by the boat, a series of about seven jumps- really impressive.
Headed north realizing the day cant get any worse cleared pp around midnight.
Sunday the 7th.
took the monkey boat out and filled the limit of snappers. all fish around 22 to 28 inches.
Tues the 9th.
Fished the Entertainer out of pensacola part with a group of guys with alabama natural gas association. Hell of a crew, 6 hour trip, 300 lbs of fish.
When I finish clearing my voice messages I post some pics of the blue that stripped the 30.
