Mr. Nagen has been fishing with me on the L&H for a long time. He prefers to enjoy the day and let his grandsons do the fishing. One of them, who we nickname el nino, loves to fish as much as anyone I have ever seen! Still single digits, I watched him stare at the rod tips on the planers in a driving rain storm and no matter what he is fishing hard the whole time he is out there! This time we got an early start and after getting a few baits headed strait offshore. A few miles out there was some sea weed and we slowed down and began heading south. A few miles down James and I spotted a nice board. When we got closer, mahi began to swim up. Before long all of the boys were hooked up. Everyone got to catch dolphin and just before we left, el nino, the fisherman, caught a small wahoo. With some fish in the box I was happy as the L&H headed south. Trav spotted a big flock of birds and when the L&H got closer everyone could see tuna breaking the surface. The tuna grabbed the lures dragging behind us and again the boys were enjoying multiple hook ups. Blackfin and skipjack tuna were now coming in. Even after leaving the birds and trolling for home we continued to get blind strikes from the delicious tuna. We made it back to the marina and took some photos and cut the fish up for the Nagen family!
