Baby Sailfish

CHICO · 08-08-2008, 01:18 PM

Thought this was pretty neat. On our last trip while fishing for swords Saturday night I saw what looked like two needle fish 130 miles out. While watching them for a few more minutes I saw a sail. These two were chasing around some bait fish from the lights with the sails straight out of the water. It was pretty cool.

Hey, if you want to see a smaller version just look at my photo gallery. Caught itin a dip net one night at the spur.

Cool pics. We netted some like like 2 years ago at the spur. The baby sails were balling bait minnows right off the transom.

that is neat. i would love to see some of those tikes balling bait at such a small size. i have never caught a sail but, i will one day. maybe i would have better luck if i just took a dip net out to the spur.
