“FLY HOOKER” FISH REPORT FOR APRIL 21, 2003
The Kevin Kilbourne party fished with Juan and Manuel today and while the fishing was not
great, they did have a good time and caught two nice Dorado while working the area of the “95
Spot”. The water was nice in the morning and a bit on the choppy side on the way back due to
the afternoon winds we have been experiencing.
“FLY HOOKER” FISH REPORT FOR APRIL 23,24th, 2003
These two days and the 26th were booked over the phone last year on November 8th by a
repeat client, John Hasko. We did not a deposit and of course, we got burned. Sigh. No show,
no contact, no fishing, no money, no more.
“FLY HOOKER” FISH REPORT FOR APRIL 26, 2003
This was one of the days booked by John Hasko but I was lucky enough to find some guys
looking for boats and we fit the bill. There were 8 guys and two wives looking for a couple of 31
foot boats for today and the chose us and a friends 31 for the adventure. We carried a party of 6
who wished to fish just a half day as some of them had to catch an early flight home, the other
four fished all day. Our group caught three nice Yellowfin, the largest about 45 pounds. They
were working the area around the “95 Spot” with Porpoise all around and had a quadruple strike
on Yellowfin Tuna. Two of these fish made it into the boat and two dropped off the hook. A live
bait was dropped back on the strike and the larger Tuna ate that bait. The smaller fish were
around 20 pounds. They also tossed bait to a Marlin and saw another free jumping, saw lots of
Porpoise, a couple of whales, seals and turtles. They had a great time and will be back again.
“FLY HOOKER” FISH REPORT FOR APRIL 27, 2003
Walter and his wife Sue brought along a friend they had met whose name is Herman and they
all fished on the “Fly Hooker” today. It was Manuels day off so Juan drove the boat and Willow
filled in as deck hand. Again, the 95 spot seemed to be the place to be and Herman got hooked
up to a nice Yellowfin Tuna that everyone estimated at 60 pounds. I saw the collar so I think that
was the right size! It sure provided some nice fillets. Walter caught the other fish of the trip, a
smaller football size Yellowfin of about 15 pounds. Juan told me that they had a bite off by a
Wahoo and somehow managed to farm two Dorado as well. Fish for dinner and no one was sick,
what a great day!
