9-25 Canyon Report
The weather for the Tuesday/Wednesday Canyon trip was a little choppier than predicted but it did not stop the Mahi-Mahi from biting. We spent most of the day fishing for mahi and landed over 200 fish.
As the sun was setting we anchored for the night to fish for tuna and swordfish. Our first bites came around midnight when yellowfin passed through.
Nuno DeCosta landed the first yellowfin. Another was landed and a couple lost at that time. It was about an hour later when they passed through and we landed two more. After that Dan Hospodar hooked a 180LB Mako. After a tough battle and a couple of leaps, the Mako was landed. It was quiet the rest of the night so we went on the drift just after sunrise.
There were loads of porpoise and a good number of humpback whale feeding in the area with tuna underneath. We made a few more drifts and landed one each drift and lost several more.
