Slow Season, but Some Success

In what has been described by veteran Captain Peter B Wright as so far the “worst season in seven years” the marlin are few and far between. However, our last trip of six days produced reasonable results. We managed three, with two smaller fish like the one above and one well over the 1,000lb mark.

We got this one on No. 10 Ribbon Reef, fishing in amongst 17 boats lured there by reports of a hot bite. We hooked up alongside Square Bear who almost simultaneously got another 1000lb plus fish on. Granders, side by side…

We also got a great shot of the boys on Wild Turkey, hooked up to one they called at 700lb.
