Galveston Offshore 5-12-07

Krissy with her 1st and 2nd ever Wahoo

Krissy, my boss (Richard) and myself headed out from the GYB (Galveston yacht basin) at about 07:00 to beautiful weather and seas. With the new two snapper limit we decided to make a long run to try a big fish spot which didn’t give up a single fish. There was a Rik Jacobson spot close by so we decided to give it a try. It took us about 45 minutes to limit out on 20”-22” snapper. Krissy caught four of those.With a full load of snapper before 10:30 we dropped a couple of lures in and started to troll the same spot. We ended up losing a Big dolphin, a nice AJ and a big ?. Krissy did end up boating a couple of schoolie Wahoo which was awesome because they were the first Wahoo that we had ever caught from our boat.On the way home we stopped at a weed line and picked up 7 or 10 chicken dolphin for fresh mahi tacos.The new boat ran great and we also got the opportunity to meet Marlintini back at the dock. Man what a nice ride he has and a nice guy to boot.
