Went out yesterday in the 25 knot 3 metre conditions and hunted some Dolphinfish which are running hard at the moment. We got a couple early and then bled with nothing for about three hours. We decided to head home about 1200 and trolled the reef on the way. I picked up a very welcome doggie (probably about 8kgs). Then at the end of securing that in the esky we saw a massive dolly school, left the reef and got into them. It was Mahi Madness with double hook-ups and only me to get them in as it was too rough for my mate to leave the wheel. There wasn't even time to reset lures as whatever was left in the water ended up connected to the next fish. An awesome 45 minutes to finish the days fishing. We got another four before heading home, leaving them biting.
Without a doubt my favourite eating fish in the ocean.
Not much is going to survive these choppas. My hardbodies are starting to build up some pretty cool scars.
Rictor Jellybabes. Got to love em!!!!
They weren't big by any stretch but they were there in numbers and going nuts for our lures.
Dogtooth sashimi and crumbed mahi - now that's a quality lunch.
The best reason for doing what's right today is tomorrow.

I bet the Doggie was fun. Looks a little wet too, especially your mate. Good thing it's warm

Early
Got get the pics done early as they fade really quick. That's the hard part as they are bloody strong for their size and like to squirm about like crazy.
