Red snapper, grouper and yellowfin tuna abound!!!..It has been an amazing 10 days of fishing for us and we are glad to put an end to a slump that we had during the first week of the month of April..With May and spring upon us we hope to keep the momentum rolling..it has been strange..some days the tuna bite better at night and others during the day..snapper and grouper have been large and consistent more so during the daylight hours..with the best catches coming off live bait..I cant believe how many warsaw grouper we have caughtof late; probably 8 in 10 trips..We had a 42 pound red snapper last week and probably 40 fish over 20 pounds since the season opened..photos are updated in our website photo gallery should you want to see all of these increadible fish..Last Tuesday we got on a wide open yellowfin tuna bite..as fast as we could get the baits out we would hook, fight and land a 40-80 pound yellowfin..by noon we had fought over a dozen fish getting 7 of them into the cooler..sadly I dropped the largest one in the water at the cleaning dock, and after a 20 minute swim in brisk filthy water I failed to recover the fish..on the contrary, the cobalt bluewater is about 40 miles offshore and pushing hard from the west..in fact the water looks more purple than blue..we even caught our first bull dolphin of the year last week, so it can only get better from here..I am anticipating a marlin any day now..we are going to put the chair and outriggers back on the boats this week..We fished the opening of snapper at 12:01AM April 21 with the first fish of the season being a 31 pounder about 5 minutes into the trip..although we had to move around quite a bit to get the limit, in the end we filled the box in about 5 hours..the wind kept us at home all weekend, but we will be back in force this week with 4 overnight trips and 3 day trips..www.paradise-outfitters.com - 985-845-8006
