11/23/09 Doug Nichols Mahi Mahi's

Doug Nichols and his sons joined us for a extended full day, Doug organized the trip several months in advance and was excited to get fishing. The morning turned out to be on the slow side, but as the morning wore on we got lucky finding a nice floater. We worked it several hours managing to catch 7 nice Mahi Mahi, biggest around 25 pounds. After fishing the floater we checked out O-tec buoy, saw a curious bronze whaler shark hungry for something. So for some fun getting a rod bent we quickly tossed a bait in the water to let them have a pull. The feisty bronzy was about six feet. We hoped for a nice marlin the remaining hours but no luck, pretty slow for most of the fleet today.

Aloha, Capt. Teddy Hoogs
