Out with a crew of guys and gals from the JC Smith Company for a day of offshore fun. Somewhere around the 40 mile mark we pass pot marker float drifting by itself. Dave throws out a quick spread and I make a couple passes but nothing. I pull along side the marker and throw in some cut bait and immediately some mahi rocket up from the deep. Dave grabs the rest of the light tackle from the cabin...

Back to the same area we fished yesterday with a father & son team from MD. Action starts about 30 minutes into the day when a white marlin pops up behind our long rigger but will not come any closer for our circle hook rig. Next bite takes about 30 minutes when a big wahoo grabs our shotgun bait and heads the other direction at 100 mph. Unfortunately the #9 wire breaks and the fish swims off...

Finally some favorable conditions allow us to see the blue water with a crew from VA. The morning marlin bite was great going 4 for 6 on whites. Sometime around noon a big wahoo come skying out of the water and crushes our mid rigger. Ten minutes later Dave sinks the gaff into the 65# fish. About 45 minutes later our shotgun rod takes off and we put another 45# hoo in the box.

Made a big run south today with a full crew from Bel Air MD. Worked the gear trying to entice some very spooky baler size mahi with light tackle to take our baits all the while trying to stay ahead of the nearby lobster boat hauling the gear. After a couple hours of very limited success I point the boat north toward the 100 fathom line. After 90 minutes of nothing we hit a light trash/weed line....

Stopped this morning after a 20+ mile run to spend a little time bending a rod on some fun and hard pulling false albacore. Was surprised at the number of atlantic bonito (great tasting smallish tuna like mackerel) mixed in with the albies.  After a few hours of fun I offer the guys a couple options. They decide to go try and add some sea bass to the box. The bite was good and by the days end...
