The fleet is now spread the length of the reef from Linden Bank to Number 10 Ribbon in search of a hot bite. And again, some boats recorded good fish while nearby others recorded nothing. Near us on 10, Square Bear got amongst the rat pack with a good bite of small fish early. Meanwhile on Reel Chase, we had a bite out of a very nice fish only for her to disappear with the bait but not the hook. Despite seeing quite a few others including a group of at least 6 that buzzed our baits, that was our day.Wild Turkey fishing on Number 7 released this nice fish Ben called 750lbs. Wild Turkey – Photos courtesy of video from Tim on Tradition fishing by their side. Reports of Little Audrey tagging 3 on Linden Bank should further spread the fleet. We’re visiting the Rock today and tomorrow so we’ll find out if the fish have made it this far North.

300lbs. That’s the size we put on it anyway but when we reviewed the footage at the end of the day, we loved this shot. Amazing what a good camera can do! (Canon EOS 20D for this one.)
Not much to report for yesterday. The entire fleet battled strong winds and rain squalls for the entire day mostly without joy. The two boats that I hear caught fish covered both ends of the scale – a 900lb-er for Mauna Kea and a 50lb-er for Ningaloo.

Today’s quiz – how heavy is this fish? Stay tuned tomorrow and we’ll tell you.In the meantime, big wind, big fish action is back on the menu with another two reported sightings of Godzilla at the bottom of Number 4. Unfortunately for all of us, she’s not eating… Other boats a little further North saw some more action. Brilliant Company caught two at the top Number 7 including a 900lb-er and Calypso also caught two at 5 and a Half including a 900lb-er and Ben on Wild Turkey also caught two little fish. We caught just the one for the day (for Mike on Day 1) following up on our one fish the day before. Photo below, Brilliant Company on a smaller fish on Tuesday as well as our previous day’s fish Tuesday for super angler Dave.
