In the first hour of the trip all hell broke lose. A Blue Marlin crashed the spread. We hooked it on the left flat but unfortunately it quickly threw the hook. Seconds later another Marlin crashed the right 50lb, we hooked up but after a few jumps it threw the hook too. 0 for 2….Never give up! We made another pass and straight away BOOM, we hooked a double header Blue Marlin. We fought both fish for a while before one came off and then we released a Blue of about 150lb after a 30 mins fight, just a perfect fish on 30lb class tackle. The guys were delighted & had never seen anything like it!
Capt. Manuel Gabuardi then put us on a Tuna school & we caught 5 Tuna witnessing some incredible scenes as airborne Tuna chased Flying Fish in amongst hundreds of Spinner Dolphins. We spent the remainder of the day seeing if we could find Jerahme’s Dream Bull Dorado and as luck would have it, the plan worked out & Jerahme caught a stunning Bull to close out a GREAT day.
