Anglers:

I'm going to start this off by saying "Wow" what a weekend of fishing in the Canyon.

Today I had aboard one of the owners of G&H Offshore Lure Co., two boys from Qantico, and two Navy Officers that just returned from a 7 month Deployment. (By the way Gentlemen "Thank You all for your Service").

We started out in 30 Fathoms around the Navy buoys and had fun bailing mahi off them. Picked up 12 until a white came in and crashed the party. He didnt want us just the mahi that were hanging off the buoys and a log that was floating by.

I pointed the bow towards the canyon when a mystery bite occured but didn't come tight. I'd been fishing the pot buoys in the canyon all summer getting nice mahi and tuna close by when all hell breaks loose. Our 1st billfish of the day wrecks havoc on everything and leaves. He must not had enough so he turns and comes back in and get hooks on a G&H Seawitch. Hooked up this time, little to be known it wasn't a white it is a small blue. Get him to the boat, take pics and release him for another day. Back on the troll and pass our 1st buoy and it looks like nobody is home and a Penn 50 starts screaming like its on fire. Bert grabs the rod and lands a nice stud 42lbs Wahoo. Ok now we've got meat. Troll around the Canyon ledge and pic up a mahi here and there a few Fat Albert's and decide around 3 to call it a day. All lines are in except the Shotgun and when it reaches the stern it looks like someone dropped a VW bus next to the boat. Marlin hook up. Get the girl to the boat and it a huge white. Get some action shots let the anglers pat her back and she's off to produce more bills for us tomorrow.

Back to the dock and creek two guys at the slip.
