We got a wild hair, So we decided to go offshore in my boat and switch it up a little bit. So Jon, Brandon, Ken and I left Rudee around 4:00 am. We stopped a little shallow and and caught some nice gaffer dolphin. The dolphin fishing slowed down so we decided to try marlin fishing. As soon as we put the baits out we had a marlin bite, and we caught our first white marlin of the morning. Not long after getting the baits back out we had a strange bite and one of our baits was cut clean in half, then the flatline started screaming and so did the long rigger. We doubled up on Wahoo's and I lucked up and with 50lb Mono leader I landed mine it weighed 52lbs! But unfortunately Kens later got bit off. The action continued we caught 4 more White Marlin and jumped another off. We decided to go give bottom fishing a try we only made a couple drifts before heading closer into shore. We had a handful of Tile fish up to 8lbs a few rose fish and some hake. We decided to head inshore and try some wrecks for flounder. As we got closer to the wreck we could see a storm heading our direction but we decided to give it one shot before trying to beat the storm. We made one pass and caught 3 nice flounders up to 23 inches, I wish we could have given it more time because it was definitely game on! It was a awesome day
