Slow bite at the Baltimore yesterday

I got a last minute invite to fish yesterday, Labor Day Monday, aboard a late model hat 50 out of OC/MD the "Blew Bayou". Well I know it's not a Bertram, it got me offshore on a nice day.

Early we had an Bull Wahoo attack our stb bait, leaping out of the air and making a clean bite off. Then noting for another couple of hours, until we ran across some bailer dolphin we got 4 of 5. Then nothing until 1:55pm, and the stb long went down. After about a 15 min fight we had the YF close to the boat, but it took aonther 5-10 to convice him to jump on the gaff.

It was a beautiful day & I saw a couple of B31's out there as well. We were close to Fighting Angel when the wahoo hit, I'm not sure if Jimmy saw it. The others we didn't get close enough to see the names. Hope others did well.

That was you...damn I saw that Wahoo launch 6 feet in the air! I turned behind you guys and a White popped up and we were able to release it then the action slowed. The other Bertram was Black & Blue he's docked across from me. I heard someone say they saw Sea Nile out their but I didn't.

Cool, I saw you turn behind us and figured you saw the wahoo. I'm not sure if I should tell if I should tell my neighbor that you picked up a White right behind us.

Glad you found some action.

Is the Bertram named Black and Blue a 50'?

Jimmy-

Only have that one offshore trip in so far this season. Couldn't get a crew together to fish on Monday. Shooting for Sunday of this weekend but the forecast doesn't look too promising right now. Guess you still have the boat?
