I secretly repeat Micalicahighmikahighneyhooo to myself.. That usualy works..

miamiangler1 · 05-06-2007, 12:58 AM

Well it started out as a bumpy ride out but we wound up near the triple humps ..started to put out the first rod ..it dropped down 50 ft and starts jumping ... already I`m thinking a sword fish ... after a few more times I see a dolphin jumping ... but nothing on the rod ... we reel it back and a small school of dolphin are following whats left of the squid ... I quickly grab my spinning rod and throw out a dead pilchard ... hooked a 5# dolphin ... but noticed two bigger fish down deep ... get it unhook and throw out another bait ... while letting line out ... another fish takes line .... it`s much bigger ! after a 25min fight .. landed a 20# bull in the boat .... we run back out since it was a fast drift to the NW .. set up three lines ... 75ft float , 150 float and a tip line which we went back and forth from 300 to 500 ft .... nothing happened .. no slashed baits ! at 10:30 we decided to call it a night ... started bring all the lines in ... the last one to come in was the furthest out (75`float ) I started to reel it in slowly ... then noticed the line getting tight and the float goes under ... Fish On ! Ray gets straped in to the harness and starts a tug of war with the sword ... it comes to the surface .. then goes down to 500ft ... this goes on for a good 45min ... as soon as we gained line it would run back down to 500ft ...near the end we gained line to the 200ft mark and then it made a run back down to the 500 ft mark ..then it happens ... line goes slack ... sword pulled the hook ... all we have to show for it is photo`s of Ray fighting the Sword .....All in all it was a nice night out on the dark side ..would have been nice to have a fat sword in the boat ... but that`s Fishing ...We`ll get him next time ...!

just2fish · 05-06-2007, 01:08 AM

JupiterSailfish · 05-06-2007, 02:28 AM

It swam passed the boat never got to see it .. it was on the surface 3 times .. but always went down to the 500 ft mark .. we knew it was a good sized sword just by the way it was taking line ....

miamiangler1 · 05-06-2007, 06:00 AM

Thats funny ...thats what i was doing ! also giving some coca-cola to the fish gods

igotbenefits · 05-06-2007, 06:34 AM

It's cool to finally see Ray harnessed up for once... That fish wanted nothing to do with him.. Dolphin seem to be mutalating the baits.. at least one paid with his life.. Sorry I missed out..I'm counting down the days..

ITS BLOWIN 25-40 KNOTS UP HERE

WISH I WAS THERE.

Nice report Willie,

Too bad that one pulled on you Ray.

I cant believe all the Dolphin that are out there. Everyone is catching in day or night, does not seem to matter.

We grabbed a 35 pounder during the tourney last week.
