| First off I want to thank all the guys and 1 girl who supported us and took the time to come fishing with us! I had a blast with everyone and it was nice to have a fun crew! We left Orange Beach Marina Friday night around 11 since we had a long run ahead of us. Blue water was about 130 miles offshore and we werent stopping til we got there. Played some cards on the way out to pass the time and it wasn't long before everyone was passed out. Got up in the morning and we were still in green water so we went ahead and put our wahoo lines out and hoped to get lucky! One line goes off and cory is hooked up with a nice jack crevalle about 115 miles offshore well we iced him down for tuna bait later. 
Went to the first rig and never slowed down due to poor water quality and headed further south where we found blue water and a nice weedline with a lot of bait on it. Worked the line up and down sight casting for dolphins and trolling for wahoos. Everyone got a good warm up as we did this for a few hours! Forgot to mention this while we were trolling had a Blue Marlin blow up behind the boat circled up and found him 3 more times and it turned out to be about a 300 lb Swordfish swimming on top we also saw a white marlin sunning on the way out 
After the dolphin and wahoo we had to run north to fish a rig for tuna. Water was dirty but the fish were there! Everyone was bowed up with tuna. Chunking, livebaiting, and jigging were the tactics used! I didnt have time to snap pictures as we were all busy with fishing gaffing, wiring, and cooking dinner so hopefully someone else will post them! We stayed there until the tuna bite slowed down and the captain pointed the boat north to a few snapper spots where everyone woke up and caught a quick limit of a great grade of the endanger Red Snapper! Thanks again for coming guys and we can't wait to take yall again!

No hook ups but we did see a white marlin sunning and a freeswimming Swordfish about 300 lbs right next to the boat but he didn't want anything to do with us!

Nice pictures drew oh and by the way Drew's girlfriend took a tuna heart that was still beating and took a huge bite out of it and swallowed! We will never forget that one!
