6/17/10 Back in action

We started off looking offshore for the tuna school, we found them but they weren't coming together. We opted to get our family some action on the grounds with some skipjack tuna. The ledge was alive with bait, and our guests wore there arms out catching them. After letting everyone catch a fish, we all decided to try our luck after something bigger. Josh rigged one of the skipjack up and it didn't take long to get a bite. A good size mahi mahi jumped on, but we couldn't get a hook in it. Shortly after, we got another bite on our live bait, this time it was a marlin. We successfully tagged a 150# blue marlin for our junior angler.
Dad was next. The bite was on, as soon as we tossed another live bait in, it was eaten! Another blue marlin about 200#s, we fought it near the boat for some good photo's and pulled hook almost to leader.
Slow day turned into a great day, all from being at the right place for the tide change.

Aloha, Capt. Teddy Hoogs
