“FLY HOOKER” WEEKLY FISH COUNT
Striped Marlin: One tagged and released (#120)
“FLY HOOKER” FISH REPORT FOR JULY 10, 2003
I met Chuck and his son Manny yesterday as they were wandering the marina looking at the
boats. They had already talked with a friend of mine who had recommended the “Fly Hooker”
and Chuck decided to go fishing with his son today. Maybe it would have been better to wait
another day. There were a lot of fish hooked up by other boats today, but it was not the “Fly
Hooker’s” day for good luck. Juan said that they saw quite a few fish but were only able to toss
bait to two fish and neither one of the Marlin were hungry. They also tossed bait to some Dorado
they found under the Frigate birds and again, the fish would not eat. The boat came in with no
flags flying. Sorry guys, we wish things had been different.
“FLY HOOKER” FISH REPORT FOR JULY 13, 2003
Kevin Brown is fishing the “Fly Hooker” again this year and he has two friends with him. Juan
and his brother went to the Pacific side of the Cape this morning and worked the area off of the
lighthouse. They saw quite a few Marlin on the surface but could not get any of them to bite.
They worked their way around the Cape when the wind started to blow at noon and finally at 1
P.M. found a hungry fish. Both Kevin and Juan said that all of a sudden the bite turned on and
boats all over the place were hooking up. Definitely a tide thing, as this was the day of the full
moon. The fish was fought for around 30 minutes, on live bait and 40# line, before it was brought
to the side of the boat, tagged and released. Good gong guys, sure wish you had a little more
time and could get some more fishing in.
“FLY HOOKER” REPORT FOR 14 JULY, 2002
Today was boatwork day and we got the deck painted, the wood oiled and the fighting chairs
re-upholstered. She is looking good now!
