Steve and Kellie Camber caught 1 big shibi and one mahi and some small aku
|
We got going at 6:00 on this day of 15 mph winds going to my next favorite buoy. We had a big ono bite scream lots of line and then come off, on the run. At the buoy we got some small aku and ran them live. Only small aku were up at first, then Steve got a nice sized shibi on 60. On the way in we found a pair of mahi and Scot got one on and Steve reeled it in. In the harbor the fish got to keep their eyes today. These folks did great. Aloha Capt Rusty

Dan and Nick Garcia, and Dean Kovak caught 2 ono and 1 mahi and some small aku
|
We left at 6:00 this morning to run the ledge in the light on the way to my next favorite buoy on this day of 15 mph winds. We got our first ono outside Waimea, then we missed one at Sunset and then got one at the hotel. At the buoy we caught 2 aku and ran one live just in time to pull it into some mahi, and Scot hooked two but only stuck one, and we got it. The shibi were reluctant so we trolled out and then in. In the harbor only Dean was bold enough to eat an eyeball. Good going men. Aloha Capt Rusty

Teddy Joe Britton caught 1 nice ono and a bunch of aku and shibi
|
We got a 4:00 start on this day of 15 mph trades going to my next favorite buoy. At the buoy we jigged and got some small aku and shibi and ran them live. An ono chopped 2 of our baits in half, and did not hookup. We jigged some more and got some more small to medium shibi and aku. Then we set up and trolled outside, no hits. On the way home we got a nice ono and then we had to tow another boat in that had a trans problem in to the harbor. Teddy did a great job on all these fish. Aloha Capt Rusty

Greg Potwin, James Hull, and Emmett Butler caught 2 mahi 1 ono and a bunch of small aku and shibi
|
We got going at 6:30 on this day of 20 mph trades going to my next favorite buoy. On our first pass we took an ono hit and got it, next pass we had a mahi hit and got it too.Then we jigged and got some live aku and ran them. The aku are back at the buoy today and biting good. The big shibi are not . A mahi came by and Scot baited it up and we got it. Then the UH buoy boat came and started working on the buoy. We had something big eat an aku as we reeled it in, James had fun for a short time before it broke line. The one guy on the buoy boat was having a hard time doing what ever it was he was doing, and the bottom part of the buoy broke off, so he had to hook the anchor line on to the eyehook that is on top of the buoy. So now the buoy is upside down, but it is still there. In the harbor Greg was the bold one to eat an eyeball, not his first one. These guys did great. Aloha Capt Rusty

Mike and Annette Cross caught 2 mahi one a 47 pound bully, 1 ono and 2 aku and 3 shibi
|
We took off at 6:00 on this day of 20 mph trades going to my next favorite buoy. We took an ono hit at the buoy and got it. When we jigged we got a shibi and ran it live. When we baited Scot hooked a 47 pound mahi on 60 pound test and Annette did a great job of reeling it in. On another bait pass Scot hooked a rainbow runner and Mike got it. Then a mahi came around and Scot finally got it to eat, and Mike got it. The aku have run away from the buoy, for some reason, they were hard to catch today. These folks did a great job all the way around. Aloha Capt Rusty

Keith and Monika Wood and Jean Wood caught 1 mahi 1 big 45# shibi and lots of aku
|
We got going at 4:00 on this day of 20+ mph trades going to my next favorite buoy. We took and aku hit at the buoy but it came off, so we put the light line out and caught some aku and ran them live. The aku were biting good so we trolled. When Scot baited one time he hooked a nice big shibi and Keith did a great job of pulling that fish in, while we had that one on Scot hooked a nice mahi for Monika and she got it too. In the harbor both Keith and Monika ate the lenses out of the eyeballs, Monika even liked it so much that she ate both of the eyeballs out of her mahi, I like it. These folks did real well considering how snappy it was out there today, good going. Aloha Capt Rusty

Thresa and Tom Young caught 2 big shibi one a 70 pounder and some smaller ones
|
We took off at 4:00 on this day of 15 mph winds going to my favorite buoy. No hits trolling so we caught some baits and ran them live. We took some hits that came off, then Scot baited up a nice 30 pound shibi and Tom did a good job on it and we got it. We kept baiting and only got some mid size shibi. Then just as we were getting ready to leave Tom jigged up a 70 pound shibi on 60 pound test, an hour and a half later he got it to the boat. It was an epic battle and Tom did a super job, he did'nt miss a beat. That is the biggest shibi this year on light line that we have caught, good going Tom. It was a pleasure to fish with these folks. Aloha Capt Rusty
