Wednesday at the top of the 21 fathom finger

[The Rent Check]

Left Rudee inlet to fish Wayne’s World stopped at the top of the 21-fathom finger and started the troll. Trolled by a few boards in about 110 feet of water and brought in some bailers left the area quick, kind of tired of bailing dolphin. Kept trolling to deeper water went through 135’ of water where we caught 10 yellow fin last Saturday and did not see a fish or a boat so we kept going about an hour later we find a weed line troll it for about 5 min. and get completely covered up by dolphin. The water depth now is 155 feet and temperature is 77 deg. These dolphin are a little bigger around 10 lbs had to gaff some of them. Left the weed line after about a hour of dolphin madness to find the yellow fin, started working in towards shallower water right back to the top of the 21 fathom finger in 135’ of water the Fat Alberts are breaking water everywhere. It was hard to troll there so many Alberts finally take the hooks out of the green machine spreader bar and make all lines as flat lines 30 feet from the boat managed to put 2 yellow fin in the boat over the next 2 hours one 30 lbs the other about 55lbs. The tuna all came from a squid witch Bill Fischer gave me called “The Green Lantern” and the dolphin ate a black and red Ilander Tracker more than anything else. Nice fishing with you Scott and will email you pictures of your boat in action.

Hey Rent:

Nice talking with you on radio. Weather was way too nice for us to head in so we left Waynes World and stopped back by the hot dog and trolled until about 6:30pm picking up some nice gaffers and a few bailers by the floating debris. Had a great sunset ride back into Rudee. If you tt Bill Fisher tell him I said hello and to stop buying green machines as I am sure his garage is filled with them. I think he hangs them up for decorations at X-Mas time!! hope to run into you again on the water.

Scott

P.s I shot you a bmail with my email address

Dave....buddy ole pal

Looks like the 'green latern' one paid off? Glad you got out there and caught some fish. I may be going this weekend to try out your flounder hole. Does you GM bar need to be re-worked or is it ok? You can bring it by if it needs fixing.

Scott

What's up buddy? Glad to see you are still fishing some. I got 3 bad injectors and a 3 week old little boy. I may miss the marlin bite again this year. Oh well, it's on next year.

Are you putting any meat on those lures or are they trolled plain? Thanks.
