Taste Buds ? Catfish have a more refined sense of flavor than humans. Our 10,000 taste buds may seem like a lot, but catfish can have as many as 175,000. This helps them find the exact location of their next meal. |

Just got off the phone with Capt. Sonny who fished on the Albemarle today with Willie 'one jump' Miller. Old one jump was on his game today and they were able to T/R a white marlin on a rip 20 miles out..turned out the marlin was never actually hooked but tangled in the leader..whatever it takes..shows you why you miss a few of them..anyway after a short fight the fish was photographed and tagged and sent packing..the bite was hot on ballyhoo for the fish that actually found the hooks today..with 1 yellowfin, 2 blackfin, 2 bull dolphin and a wahoo making thier way into the box..they will be out again tomorrow..Darryl and Chris went further on the Finatic with Shane and Buddy. They were gone long the last few days picking up 2 blue marlin and 17 yellowfin..they even bagged a 35# wahoo while high speed trolling at 17 knots on the way out...sadly one of the blues expired and they had to handline it in..it weighed 418 pounds 18 hours AD..if there is a bright side; it is that the reel was spooled with 100 pound line and it was the smaller of the two they caught..they also had two run-offs swordfishing by MC 486 last night but pulled hooks on the hook-set..no telling what it was on the other end but the strikes were very close together and the leader was chaffed well past the hook..they were using live bridled hardtails one above the themo at 175' and one below at 250'..we had marked the break at 200 ft the last few tries..should have more to report tomorrow..Paradise Outfitters - 985-845-8006 Check out additional pictures and info ONLINE!
