SHOULD I STAY OR SHOULD I GO NOW?
Early this week we experienced some rain. Then we
got more rain. I was beginning to think it would
never stop but after 3 days it finally did. This weather
brought low pressure that not only made boat rides
uncomfortable it also shut the great fishing we were
experiencing right down.
Then the rain stopped and the tuna popped. The bite
has been a little different every day but boats willing
to go the distance and take the time have been
rewarded with limits. The fish have been from 20 to
35 miles off shore. Sometimes we are finding them
with spotted dolphin and sometimes they are just
breezing.
Most mornings, using our gyro binoculars, we have
been able to spot working birds in the distance which
is always where the tuna are feeding. Finding the fish
doesn't mean they are going to bite right way though.
Yesterday first thing in the morning the tuna charged
the boat and bit everything in the water. The day
before they were foaming around the boat but we
couldn't buy a bite. It was a matter of just working
hard, having patience and waiting until the fish
decided to cooperate.
I had a little difficulty with a group this week that
didn't have the faith or patience and made me leave
the scene before making the score. It was very
frustrating to go the distance, find the fish and have
to leave them. I learned many years ago you don't
leave fish to go find fish.
It has been a little inconsistent for boats targeting
Marlin, Dorado and roosterfish. Sometimes they will
go but it is the tuna that has been pure action.
