Fishing Report, May 16
Gary, George, Blair and the rest of you that actually do read this, thanks.
Gettin' warm down here. Rivulets of sweat are coursing down Jorges' shaven head, D Rex is panting, I'm hiding in the office, and offshore fishing is starting to take off in earnest. While inshore the Cubera fishing is getting into second gear with a few 50 pounders warming up for their annual combat with the Daigle Fishing Team, and the lisas are continuing to school at PP, and some 12-15 pound cabrilla have been hitting plugs along the island, it's offshore that takes the 'most improved' award this report. Dozens of stripers are sighted on almost every trip to the buoys. They aren't quite ravenoust yet, few more degrees of temp/few less squid down deep, but we've had several 4 marlin days in the past 10. Throw in a sail or two, and 2-4 dorado and you've got a day. The dorado fishing isn't every day wide open, but it's improving steadily with the warming water and soon will be worthy of such Dorado Divas as S. Hada and C. Brown. Check out the pictures below of ChooChoo and Diego. Both did very well on dorado out 20 miles, and that fish of Diegos' is probably our biggest yet this year. Some reports from the commercials of some early wahoo sightings and one big amberjack taken by a hand liner hint as to what we can expect from the next chapter. Whenever you get it, eh boys?
Stay Well , Have Fun,
