Gorgeous Day and a White Marlin bite

Mild NE wind and relaxed seas. The circumstances wherever excellent for a nice journey out to the Marlin fishing region. The Pelican and a number of other boats from the fleet made the journey and wherever rewarded with a very good day. Arch found six Whites and caught 4 of them. They also place a thirty pound gaffer (dolphin) in the box. The forecast looks excellent as we get tuned up for the Alice Kelly and Pirates Cove tournament following week.

The Pelican ran to the northeast these days with fly rods at the ready. Well virtually. A excellent amount of White’s have proven up and a couple of other boats from the fleet also joined in the hunt. Arch managed to discover at least a dozen lookers. Out of the people a few even acted aggressive. But not aggressive ample for a fly. At minimum not until lines and the teasers in which finding cranked in for the trip home. Then, wouldn’t you know it, at least two very hungry Marlin crashed what was left out. Hungry adequate for at least one particular to get caught on a FLY that had to be pulled out of the salon whilst the Marlin in which begging!
