New Years Eve Fishing Trip

Shawn and Krista had us booked today and bought along a few friends. 5 Redskin fans and one Dallas fan so I'm not real sure how they all got along for the day without throwing him over. The weather this morning was beautiful but cold with a slight swell on the ocean. We started out fishing some of our favorite spots with no luck and then slid offshore a bit to some deeper water. The Gannets attacked us and ate almost every bait in the spread but two and a pair of yellow fins ate those. We got lucky and caught them. The Gannets got so bad we had to put out some spreader bars and artificials because we couldn't keep a ballyhoo in the water more than 2 minutes before another Gannet would come and attack it, I've never seen them so hungry. we caught some albacore throughout the day as well as about ten gannets or more so we had plenty of action.

  1. We had a blast fishing on The Native Son! What a great way to end the year! Saw some dolphin and a Killer Whale! How cool is that? D.M. knew where to find the fish, unfortunately so did the Gannets! Everyone got to reel in something!Dita did a great job and kept us entertained all day! Got enough yellowfin to share with our friends! Thanks for a great time! Sean and Krista
