Costco had fresh mahi mahi on sale. https://www.fromvalerieskitchen.com/...ned-mahi-mahi/ Over in Hawaii, we saw some of those swim past our tour catamaran. Those are one fast fish! I remember the first time I was fishing blue water off of Hattaras the guy had the boat up on top and he put a few lines out with "Chinese Feathers" on them, a big honking metal plug. I asked if he was just doing that so we would think we were fishing while we were running out to the good spot. He just laughed and a minute later a Mahi hit a plug. We were doing about 25-30. Mahi are the same way, fast fish. The little schoolies are weird tho. If you have one hooked in the water, they will all come around to see what he is eating and you can fill the boat if you wanted to, as long as you keep one hooked in the water. Most responsible captains will say "That's enough" after you catch a few each. They know preserving the resource is preserving their job. When I go on long range trips, we can not use plugs on Dorado, same fish. Have to use bait, as they are so fast and energetic that if they throw the plug, it may come flying back aboard. === I've had very good luck with something called a pink and white rattle jet. It was originally recommended to me by a guy who does a lot of fishing on the east coast of FL and he was right. We troll it at our cruising speed of about 8 1/2 knots. https://afwfishing.com/ch-lures_products/CH-RJ-13.asp --- This email has been checked for viruses by AVG. https://www.avg.com Looks a lot like the trolling feathers we use, except for color. West coast we use a lot of purple and Mexican Flag. |
