02/24/16 Fishing Report: Wahoo, Snapper, African Pompano

This 39″ wahoo was landed by an 11 year old during our afternoon charter on Sunday. We were trolling along a temperature break 3 miles offshore when the wahoo decided to eat one of our deep baits. We had 4 wahoo bites during the afternoon charter and we landed this one. The wahoo will be immortalized as a fish mount from Gray Taxidermy. You will also notice we caught a nice mutton snapper and 2 vermillion snapper while bottom fishing at the end of the half day charter.

Obed from New Jersey landed this beautiful 27″ African Pompano during a morning half day charter on Sunday out of the little boat. This rare catch occurred while we were bottom fishing over a shipwreck with cut bait. The fish was legal size to harvest so it came home with us for the dinner table.

Here are two nice Vermillion snapper caught during the morning charter on Sunday. They were caught using cut bait near the bottom.

We caught and released this beautiful queen triggerfish during Sunday mornings half day charter on the small boat.
