Had Jon, Peter, Andrew, Kenny and Matt down from NY for a 2 day deep jigging trip. Decided to try to work to the south on day #1 for the larger AJs. 1st jig in the water was a immediate hook up and it didnt’ stop all day. The guys had multiple hook ups when ever they wanted. Found plenty of good fish and a couple 50 lbers to no large AJs. We did how ever find plenty of very large Almacos which fight twice as hard. Caught a couple of Mahi on top around some floating debris. The high light of the day came late in the afternoon in around 320 feet of water. Peter had a fish that acted different than the normal AJ. At 1st we though a shark had eaten another jack but then it came to the top. When I finally saw what it was below the boat at 50 feet I had to get the large gaff. A 70 lb Wahoo on a jig. The fish was 5 1/2 feet long and 28 inch girth a fish of the life time especially on a jig.
Stay tuned back for more tomorrow.
