Pride 1-Day Charter September 9, 2015

Thursday, September 10th, 2015

The Pride 1-Day Charter was a success! Lots of fish were caught, and limits of smiles all the way around! Jackpot for the trip was caught by Tom Handzus!!! Day started off slow. Ended up having to buy Mexican fishing permits because the captain said all the paddies they had marked and wanted to go back and fish that day were in Mexican waters. Once we got into the zone, we basically just hopped around from paddy to paddy trolling every once and a while in between. The first few stops made for some small yellow tail and dorado. Finally around 11am we hit a paddy that really produced for us. Mostly just regular football sized yellowfin, and a few dorado mixed in as well. We never came across the bigger grade of fish and we were even advised to take our line size down to 15lb if we noticed a drop off in the number of bites we were getting. Ended up with around 60 YFT and a handful of YT and Dodo’s. All in all it was a great trip and the weather cooperated, giving us a smooth ride home. Every day on the water is a day well spent.
