Default Greed kills wahoo

Last two weeks have been a blurr once again..fishing for both wahooand tuna has been stellar on the Lump- trolling marauders and island lures with swimming mullet or ballyhoo for the bigger hoos..we also saw a drop in wahoo ativity going skunk on Monday which was the first trip in 10 when we didnt come home with at least 2..we did lose a fish boatside that day so they are still out there, just more wiley..I have individual reports for each of the days along with the catches on the homesite..we did have a guy fallout of the boat while fighting a fish but he was Ok and hung on the the rod climbed back into the boat to land it..also had a wahoo cut off our top producing downrigger bait (balck and orange islander/swimming mullet) then hit a long blue and white blackhole with a ballyhoo..we got both the fish and the bait back..the pic is pretty telling..we had it rigged for tuna on light flouro as no wahoo had been seen at that point in the day and we pretty much shifted to split tail mullet on mono/flouro for tuna..Expect great fishing on the Lump to continue with the expectation of even larger fish through the end of March..pictured are the greedy wahoo and the best of the week a 75 pounder...Paradise Outfitters - 985-845-8006
