Darren and Jake O'Donnell caught 3 mahi 15 shibi and 4 aku for a super action packed day
|
In the early morning darkness off we go o this day of 15 kph trades going to my favorite buoy. At the buoy we baited and Scot managed to hook 6 big shibi and we landed them all, a great first pass it was. Then it was a steady bite with one or two or 4 on a pass, hot action. Then a few mahi showed up and Scot hooked 3 and we landed them all. The big shibi just kept eating our baits, great fun on light line. Then some pilot whales came by and the party was over, we jigged and caught a few small aku and took off. Back in the harbor both Darren and Jake were bold enough to eat mahi eyeballs gladly good going men you did real good today. Aloha Capt Rusty

Back in the harbor Kyle and Mike were game to eat shibi eyeballs gladly, Vicki kept the video camera on Kyle to see if he was gong to yack it back up but he didn't.

Then a few mahi showed up and Scot baited up 2 on one pass and one on the next. Then we had a shibi mahi double and landed them both. These folks did great reeling in all these fish. On our way in we found 2 birds working and hooked an ono and a shibi on lures and baited up a mahi, and lost a few ono hits on bait too, it was a great way to end the day. Good going guys. And they seemed to like my playlist of rock and roll oldies too. Aloha Capt Rusty
