Ray Pearson, and Colby Willis caught 3 nice shibi and 6 small mahi
|
We got underway at 5:00 going to the X buoy on this day of 20+ mph trades. At the X we got one 22 pound shibi on the first pass. Then we jigged and got one more good sized shibi and some smaller ones. Then we went down to the J buoy and Scot baited up 6 small mahi and one shibi. On the way in we found an aku school and got one 5 pounder out of it. In the harbor Colby was the one to eat an eyeball out of a mahi, alright. These folks were real troopers to handel the seas today, good going. Aloha Capt Rusty

Lee Faragher had fun catching 9 shibi, 11 aku 4 mahi and one ono
|
We got going at 5:00 on this day of 25+ trades going to the J buoy. No hits on the first pass so we jigged and caught some aku and some small mahi. Then we baited and got some nice size shibi, then it slowed down and we went to the J buoy. On our first pass we got a small ono, then started getting aku and shibi on bait,they were biting good. Lee did real good considering how rough, wet and wild it was out there today. Aloha Capt Rusty

Dan Greeson, and Art Hoover caught one marlin 166# and 16 mahi
|
We got a 5:00 start on this day of 20 mph trades going to the X buoy. We took a double mahi ono on our first pass at the x, then caught a few aku and shibi. Then we baited and Scot hooked up 5 more small mahi. Then we went down to the J buoy and baited up 11 more mahi there, that was good fun. Then on the way in from the J we hooked up our marlin. It screamed out 300 yards of line and never jumped once. Art was the man in the chair, and he had it to the boat in about 25 minutes. This fish was a lively one when it came time for it to go to sleep, it had one of the most colorful and long lightups we have seen. It looked like a big neon blue marlin for a long time. In the harbor both of these guys ate eyeballs. For the rainy day it started out and ended up as it was only our second clean sweep of the year. These guys did a great job. Aloha Capt Rusty

We got going at 5:20 on this day of 15 mph west winds going to the X buoy. With 1 mile to go to the X we took a hit and Scot had to play with it before it hooked up and we had our spearfish on. Jim reeled it in just as the first of several big rains desended on us. At the X we took a double mahi and got then both. Second pass another double and got them too, then we went to baiting and it was one two or three per pass untill we had 13. Then we caught a few baits and went to the J buoy. We lost a mahi on our first pass, then came back with some live shibi and 2 big mahi stated to maul them and Scot hooked the bully up and then the wahine too they were both around 26 pounds each. Then on the way in we took a 4 banger mahi and got all 4, In the harbor It was Jim who was the first to eat an eyeball, but in the end everyone ate one, I like it.

Tim, and Chris Van Leeywen, and Ryan Wheeler, and Myron Peterson caught 6 mahi and a bunch of small aku and shibi
|
We got going at 5:00 on this day of 20 mph trades going to the X buoy. At the X we got a mahi on our first pass, then caught bait and then baited up 3 more mahi. Then we went down to the J bouy and caught and ran some live baits, and baited but nothing came in, so we jigged. We then hooked a small mahi on a small squid and while that was on some more mahi came around and Scot was quick to hook 2 more up on bait, and we got them. Back in the harbor Myron was the first one to swallow an eyeball, then everyone else ate one too. These folks did great. Aloha Capt Rusty

Ryan Avery, and Clay McDermott caught three 7# aku and a bunch of small shibi
|
We started at 5:00 and went to the J buoy on this bumpy day of 20 mph sw winds. We got lots of small shibi and ran them live, something ate one and hooked up for awhile but it came off, it was more than likely a big shibi. Then we got 2 bigger aku and they put up a good fight on the light line. Then we went down to the II buoy and then in to the crab traps and baited for mahi and sharks but none came. In the harbor it was Ryan who was first to swallow an eyeball, then Clay did one too. These guys did admirably on this bouncy day of sw winds. Aloha Capt Rusty

We got a 5:00 start going to the LL buoy on this day of 5-15 mph winds. At the LL we had a big aku get hit by the prop, something must have chased it under the boat. Then we had a bunch of hits that all came off. Then we caught a few baits and then baited and caught 7 small mahi on the light rods. Then we headed down towards the X buoy and had 2 more hits that came off in the blind. At the X we got 5 more mahi and some more aku and shibi. Then on the way in we spotted the first humpback whales of the winter, and had 2 more hits that came off. In the harbor both Ryan and Clay were game to eat mahi eyeballs. These guys did great.
