August 1
Today I ran the Lady Pamela with Justin as the mate and Vinnie as our new mate in training today was a good day for Vinnie because the action was none stop we had four on a shared charter Larry and his nephew Charlie along with mike and roger it was a great crew. We stared the trio off by catching live bait at one of the anchored ships. Then started to troll north fishing five rods with fresh bonito strips and Stan ruer sea witches the bontia and kingfish were chewing it was one after the other we also caught a barracuda on the troll that morning I told Justin to reel every thing in because I wanted to try some wreck fishing with the live bait that we caught that morning. As Justin was reeling everything in I saw a war bird low to the water a mile in front of the boat so I told Justin to put all that baits back out for a min so we keep trolling north till we got to were the bird was a we raised a sailfish on the left long rigger bait as Justin was reeling the bait away from the fish to make the sailfish mad I was reeling another bait to get it in position as soon as I got my bait there Justin hooked the fish Charlie jumped into the fighting chair as the sailfish jumped all over the ocean it was a 15 min battle and we landed the sailfish tagged and released. Then we ran to the ship wrecks from 200 to 400 feet our first drop was in 260 feet of water with a live blue runner the rod bent over and mike jumped into the chair and fought the fish in took 10 min to reel it in and mike said to me I couldn't reel any longer I am wore out the 45 lb alamco jack was a nice fish.
