Fishing Report Deep Jigging 3-22-2013 Day #1

I had Nick, Kint and new anglers Charlie and Wilton traveled down from NY for 2 days of jigging. We delayed leaving by a couple hours due to the winds still blowing. The ride out was better than expected and once we dropped the 1st jig it was wide open. In didn’t take long for the new guys to get the hang of it. The water temps were around 70 degrees so the AJs were mean and fought hard all the way to the boat with little current. We had great action from mid morning all the way to early afternoon. Nick hooked something that fought different and came to the top at the boat and I stuck the gaff into the 1st Cobia for the year. Then Wilton caught another nice Cobia. Charlie was not to be out done and landed a 23 lb African. The next drift Nick landed his 2nd Cobia. Later in the day we moved around and found more AJs , Almacos, Rainbow Runners and also found a hungry wolf pack of sharks. Released a couple nice gags and Albies. Headed back in just before dark to get ready for day #2. We weighed the Cobia at the dock 39 lbs, 38 lbs and 36 lbs lots of good eating for the guys.
