May 22, 2011: Blue Marlin


Caught a nice Blue Marlin about 400lbs and hooked a second one which was bigger but pulled off. We had a great show of Blue Marlin today. Nice work to the anglers for reeling in this big boy.

Took the crew from UVA out! The last couple of days fishing had been scattered and it was no different today. We did catch a couple of

4/25/11:Blue Marlin and Dolphin


It was a beautiful day for a change. We had clam seas. Started off fishing down a temperature break. It was a little bit of grass scattered along the change. We ended up catching a few Dolphin. Worked offshore to another change that was holding more grass. On the way out to the change I looked back on the right teaser and a 400lb Blue Marlin was getting ready to pile on it. We got the teaser away from him, looked back, and there was another one going after the small bait that we had out for the dolphin. Looked again and a third Blue Marlin was going after a 50W on the left side and in the process of hooking him the other one came back and grabbed the teaser and ripped it off the outrigger. Keegan managed to get a 80w back, had one on for a little while but pulled him off. Needless to say it was mayhem for about 5 minutes trying to keep the 400lb blue marlins from eating the small bait that we had out. Managed to catch the one on the 50w.

11.20.10:Blackfin Tuna and Wahoo


The fishing has been great with catches of Blackfin and Yellowfin Tuna. We caught a White Marlin last week. We have been having some great fishing trips but my camera hasn't been so lucky. The following picture is from Nov. 20th with a great catch of Blackfin Tuna and Wahoo. My wife is dragging me early to go get some great deals after Thanksgiving, camera included.
Have a great Thanksgiving!

8/13/10: 2 Sailfish, Blackfin Tuna, Dolphin


The past two weeks have been tough for WestWind-had to rebuild an engine-but it was real nice to be back out on the water. The anglers did a great job reeling in some Blackfin Tuna and Dolphin. Congratulations to Keith and Donna for their catch and release of a Sailfish! Friday the 13th turned out to be a great day of fishing plus the boat ran great.
