Terrible weather should end by Thursday. We tried today but unfortunately after just 15mins we had to turn the boat round and head back to port. Fortunately we have been able to give our anglers another slot this week. From Thursday weather is calming right down and the winds go back to the north which is good for us. Wahoo season is on so looking forward to some good catches

Full day bug game fishing and it was a slow morning we concentrated on tuna as one of our fellow captain had just had a tripple hit of big eye tuna. We didnt manage to hook up in the first few hour then suddenly a bill fish came i to the spread all lit up and chasing our lures. After 4 or 5 goes he finally took the smallest lure in the soread and it was Fish On!!! All line in and our angler was now fighting his first billfish. Nit a big one but it ran and it jumped to entertain us all. Fight lasted about 20mins before we released a very healthy white marlin. Happy day s?

Just 15mins out of the marina and shotgun went screaming off……lines clearer in super quick time and we started playing the fish. After a good fight we safely released a really nice spearfish

Great day on the water, slow start fishing but stopped for a great lunch with swimming and diving off the boat. In the last hour we hooked a feisty blue marlin, on an 80lb rig and our proven tuna jet, got the fish to the boat and all of a sudden we were surrounded by a shoal of trigger fish, very feisty fish tested our captain aka wireman but released lit up blue.

Steve has fished 4 days big game with us. Day one we hooked into a blue marlin cleared all the lines and started to back down. After 10mins the fish shook the hook so we put all lines out again. Within 10 mins we had a lovely big spearfish come into the spread all lit up and it followed our lure for 3.5 mins knocked the lure out of the clip and then swam away. Very exciting but no catch today. Day 2 started with a nice mahi mahi in the morning then just before lunch a brilliant take and marlin on …. Reel screamed away and the fight was on. A half hour fight brough a 500lb marlin to the boat. Well done Steve a fathers day marlin!!! Later that afternoon we had a double strike and 2 nice mahi mahi. Day 3. Very quite out in the water no strikes at all. Day 4 and Steves ? we left the harbour set of the lures and just 10 mins in a big strike!!!! Marlin on this time a much bigger fish. And it jumped and ran 9 times before we managed to get it to the boat. We safely released an 800lb marlin! Happy Birthday Steve ?

First hook up of the 2025 season for Flipper II lovely blue marlin hit left long and the reel screamed away. We quickly cleared all the lines and with our angler in the chair we started the fight. 5 minutes into the fight the fish turned and shook the hook. Shame this was only a three hour trip and with more time we may well have hooked up again. We saw plenty of life out there today. The season is starting!!
