Headed to the nipple today to troll. Got there at 8:00 AM and there were some birds working on the surface. Water was better than I've seen in a while. 30 foot visibility. Put out the spread and trolled around a bit. Looked to the starboard side to see a fin and tail swimming on the surface beside the boat! He popped up on a islander/ballyhoo and fiddled with it, then dropped back and hit a super chugger. My friend Andrew (FishingAddict from the forum) grabbed the reel. We got a few jumps out of him before he threw it    .  . Oh well, it was awesome to see that happen and it was our first billfish hookup on the boat. We trolled around for a while and saw a whaleshark, another first. No other action on the troll for the day. Headed to some wrecks a little after noon. Found some small bonita on the way in. The jacks were going crazy at the wreck we fished and were coming up to the top often. We caught some on our 10# small rods. Couldn't manage a keeper though. All in all, it was an awesome day.Sorry, no pics of the whitie. Too much chaos going on to take any pics!

Sounds like a good day! Too bad no pick of the marlin!
Show me the right path, O Lord; point out the road for me to follow. Lead me by your truth and teach me, for you are the God who saves me. All day long I put my hope in you. Remember, O Lord, your compassion and unfailing love, which you have shown from long ages past. Do not remember the rebellious sins of my youth. Remember me in the light of your unfailing love, for you are merciful, O Lord. Psalms 25:4-7
