The Mahi Mahi are off Jacksonville and Northeast Florida!

Full boat today and it was worth it; the rookies had a good time. Everyone had a chance to reel in some fish. We started at the break around 7:30. By 9am we had 4 wahoo and a dolphin in the boat. Katie caught the biggest wahoo, a personal best for her which we estimated around 50pounds. Another hoo in the high thirties and then two teenagers. Katie also caught her biggest dolphin to date which was in the low 20's. After that we had a consistent dolphin bite all day. We ended up with 16 dolphin up to the low 20's. My sister caught and released her first sailfish today. Her Tennessee boyfriend caught his first wahoo and dolphin.

We decided to bottom fish around 2:30pm and it was a good idea. Hit a couple spots here and there. Brian picked off a nice 20# snapper and we added 5 more to the box. Porkchop topped off the day with a an African Pompano. Katie also got her first keeper snapper.

What a day of fishing! Fish were caught at the edge of the gulf stream in about 170-220ft of water east-southeast of Jacksonville at about 104 degrees.
