A gusty cool snap and the wind out of the N.E. last week livened up the Dolphin action we boated a doz. - 26 to 12 lb, released 5 others. These fish hit only trolled ballyhoo WO/skirts, wiches nothing. We even pulled in the teasers. You gotta rig'em so they swim like real.
Saw two larger schools of Spinner shars big guys mabe 30 per school we were able to pull into the middle of them and watch the action. At the same time 5 to 6 - 70 to 150 lb sharks leaping 4 to 5 foot in the air spinning 4 or more times often crashing into each other. They were not feeding at all. Must be a mating ritual? Looked a little like break dancing humans do. " Did I say humans "? But what a fantastic show for our crew and clients none had seen this in real life. All my camera film was shot on the Dolphin catches. So sorry no pix or Video, "I wish"! We have been seeing real large Cuda's in and offshore and small sharks both trolling and live baiting. This Action - Breakers to Juno 100 to 250 feet. We heard VHF reports the Kings were off Juno but saw none ourselves. Sailfish are here but you gotta be stubborn long term, live. That's it for now.
" Keep what you can eat, release the rest!"
Yours for better boating, Capt. Seaweed |
