What a great day..both Hunter and I were out today..I had a group of outdoor writers for a wahoo trip on the Albemarle, while Hunter was with the Perrone group on the Rennaisance cat out for tuna..hadn't been out on a while and didn't know what to expect..Bob and I were readying the boat yesterday re-rigging baits in case we got on a wahoo blitz and what a blitz it was..got our first baits over about 9am with a double header starting it off..thought we had some huge wahoo but both fish turned out to be 60 pound yellowfins..ahh not a bad start but that opened the door for wahoo..we got into them too..doubles and singles as fast as we could get the baits over..put 7 fish from 30-75 pounds in the next hour while releasing 3 boatside after taking some great pics..we left at 11:00am with no room to spare had to cut the heads off the bigger fish to get them to fit in the box..got home about 1pm..Hunter did well on the yellowfins with 6 80-100 pound fish..They hit a few spots but endind up covering a little water..Hunter said the mullet were getting run upo even well offshore..too bad we had to cancel tomorrow..weather looks messy the next few days..I heard the bite went off on the Lump today..we may go give that a try next trip..Fish are biting...Paradise Outfitters - 985-845-8006
