The fishing before the strom was on fire and we expect more of the same afterward..really no damage in Venice following Dennis just a few raindrops and 25mph winds, I spent the night down in Venice Saturday night and when Dennis was even Latitude with us I decided to head home..we never even lost power, although it got pretty windy Saturday night..the boats banging against the pilings kept me awake most of the night..fishing was increadible before the blow, and no storm to date has ever messed up the tuna fishing..I suspect the water will be all messed up due to the north winds..how it affect the trolling for marlin and dolphin in the short term is anyones guess..where there is bait there is poredators...Prior to Dennis, the overnght tuna trips were yeilding double digit catches and we even had some monsters hit the ice..largest tuna the last two weeks were 130 pounds and 145 pounds..mostly school fish of 40-80 pounds but we have been averaging 12 fish per night..a few marln still being seen and released..my 7 year old son got a turn on one on June 20th..the dolphin bite is also still steady...our trolling trips have been averaging 4 bulls and one wahoo..I had a fly fishing group out Thurdsday night before Dennis and they went 4 for 12 on yellowfins..4 were landed according to the rules with 12 and 14 wt rods..the largest were 60 pounds, 57 pounds and 40 and 25 pounds..any yellowfin on fly tackle is an accomplishment..They also released 75 blackfin..The 36 ft Twin Vee catamaran made its first charter last Friday and Capt. Sonny put the boys on 9 yellowfin from 40-70 pounds..hopefully the start of something increadibe and many more successful trips to follow!..what a boat..plenty room and fast and stable in all sea conditions..Last year following Ivan the bottom fishing was on fire for sow red snapper..since this strom took the same track, we'll be looking for sows this week..cant wait to see how it turns out..PARADISE OUTFITTERS - 985-845-8006
