The Big Bite 3 heading out to the deep water in search of Dolphin, Blackfin Tuna and maybe a Wahoo

We have been very busy over the last two weeks. Many people on the boat and many Charters. We are in what is called down here as the in between season time. To late for the sails to be dependable and a little early for the dolphin. So the normal day starts out with the Big Bite heading out to the deep water in search of Dolphin, Blackfin Tuna and maybe a Wahoo. The deep Planners go in the water ( We use Z Wings which work real well ) looking for the Wahoo and Tuna and we put a spread of dolphin lures out and look over the Horizon for any surface activity or bird feeding to locate active Dolphin feeding. This time last year we were loading up on Dolphin and that was the day. This year the Dolphin fishing is late. We generally catch a couple of fish by 12:00 and at this time I recommend to the Anglers that we might try the reef for some excellent table food in the form of Snappers and Mackerel. So far all indicate that they would like to try out the reef. The reef has not let us down! In about two hours everyone is hand sore from reeling up the fish and some of these fish are to talk about! If you think Yellow tail Snapper eating is good try Hogfish or Cerro Mackerel! Unbelievable is the only way to describe this as table fare! If you were on for the full day Charter we buy the dinner at the local restaurant in the Marina. The fish comes grilled or blackened – both excellent! Come on down and try it!
