Bottom of the Ninth!
Tom and the boys on board today, pretty day cool NE breeze made it comfortable.
caught a bailer right off the bat but the grass didn’t go anywhere.
pulled the high speeds off shore but no bites.
Looked around in the deep and hooked a blue marlin, after a short time, he came up jumping and threw the hook.
A little while later a sail got me on the long rigger, we did not get him.
chased to tunas around in the deep with no bites.
got a report of some dolphins and went right to that spot and a 230 we caught a mess of dolphins.
Don’t give up!
