Just One of those Days (8/26)

We took a ride in search of wahoo on the 27′ Contender Trade In.  The wahoo have been on the lumps inshore of the Baltimore fairly consistent so we wanted to give it a shot.  Unfortunately we got there and were greeted with green water.  We still gave it a shot and caught one false albacore and got short bit by a wahoo.  There was a bit of a white marlin bite out in the Baltimore so we monied out there and gave that a shot for about an hour, but it was way choppier then expected and it made it difficult to fish the way we needed to on the Contender.  Regardless we pounded it out and managed to get a white on the teaser but it was lazy and never really committed.  Since it was rough for us we decided to 8 knot it towards home wahoo fishing to knock off some miles and lessen the beating home and we got a wahoo bite when we crossed the tip of the canyon.  Unfortunately the wahoo tried to eat the trolling weight instead of the bait and that was all she wrote.  Tough day for us.
