What a day on the Sunrise! Captain Windes took us out for a day and half, and we had a great time. We started out on Wednesday night and headed out to look for some Yellowfin. We arrived somewhere north of South America (Long trip out) and started fishing in a modest 2-4 foot sea. A cuda hit us right off the bat, thenI brought in a small black fin. Next we hooked a shark that broke off as it got to the boat. So we moved to another spot. We managed to bring in a small yellow fin, but it wasn't for lack of trying. The seas had picked up to 3-5 by this point, so we decided to hit some deep holes and the snapper and groupers. Right off the bat, Christopher pulled in a 20 pound snapper (It weighed in at 18.4 gutted), and he was "chumming:sick" as he reeled it in. We were working hard at a couple of spots, as the seas continued to build. About noon with the seas easily at 8 feet, Captain Windes said let's go home. We got back about 6:45, just in time for Christopher to get his picture with Ms. Destin.
Travis, Trey and Captain Windes did a great job of putting us on the fish, and had it not been for a couple of angler mistakes, we could have had a "perfect" day. We look forward to getting back on the Sunrise in the future.
