Back with the second marlin of the season
We started at 7a.m. while heading south we found some birds diving and some yellowfin tuna jumping. We swap from surface lures to rappalas and were able to catch a nice 15 pounds tuna. Later on we decided to move to deeper waters as we were informed by a coleague that skipjacks were bitting. On the way to the new spot a bite on the long corner lure….missed…the fished went on the central rigger line chassing the lure bill out of the water. bang the elastics that we use to attach the line to the tagline broke….we were able to admire the various jumps of the marlin. we immediately cleared all the lines and started the fight. After a good fight the blue marlin was in. Later on we caught a skipjack that we used as live bait. a shark attacked it leaving only the head. We were back at shore at 3p.m
