Our long time friends from Itali Stefano, Jakobo, Alvy and Massimo have fished the last week with us.
They caught two blues standupfishing and missed a few plus some sails. We caught tunas ,dorados , wahoos and amberjacks to keep us busy. Massimo tried his 8 lb tackle for tuna again but only caught a small one this year. Last year he nearly caught a 60 pounder next will be the lucky one !
February 23
Phil and Andy have fished their week and both of them had a great fish one around 900 and one around 800
pounds. We caught another 350 and lost a few more. As bycatch we had tuna Wahoo and dorado.
Feburary 12
The last 2 weeks we fished with our long time friends from norway . We only caught 3 Blues and a 220 lb Big Eye. At least the guys bend their rods with wahoo , dorados and tuna around 50 lb.
Today it was the first day for Phil and Andy from England and they were lucky again. We went 2 for 5 and raised another one. One fish we caught was 350 and the other one 900 lb.
All the other fish were over 500 lb.Hope it continues like this

April 24th 2008
Yesterday Johnny, Fleming and Kent were very happy because they had a 220 lb Yellowfin Tuna. The fight took 3 hours because we had the tuna on some lighter tackle as we were fishing inshore for Wahoo. We also just had a 3-foot leader so it became quite a challange to land this tuna.
Today we had 5 Sails and raised 10 more.

The last 9 days we have been fishing with a big group of Danish anglers. There is a lot of baitfish out in the deep water and we are raising 10 to 20 Sailfish a day. We are catching most of them on pitch bait and Stella reels. We also got two Blues and raised three more. For a few days also some tuna showed up, so when we saw them we had to get the teasers in and put some lures out. We caught 11 tuna the last 9 days between 150 and 200 lb.
Today we caught 7 Sails on Stellas, pulled the hook on one Blue and caught another 350 lb on 30 lb line test. Thomas pitched the bait perfectly and he saw a Blue Marlin fight as good as it can get. The fish was never more than 50 meters away from the boat and more in the air than in the water.

The last days we raised two Blues which never switched to the bait. Yesterday we got a nice one on our teaser. She failed three times to eat the pitch bait and, on the forth attempt, we got her on. Movie-fish for Eduardo on stand-up, jumping like crazy. We estimated her at 850 lb.

We have finished 5 days of fishing with Eddie, Trevor and David. We went three days for Marlin and there was not much going on. Day one we raised one Sail and caught a Dorado. Day two we raised a Blue of 500lb and had two bites of Sails on lures. Day three we had a Blue coming up but he missed the lure on the bite and never came back again. We raised another 10 Sails. The last two days we were fishing inshore and caught several Amberjack, Tuna and Wahoo.
After a two-day break we start fishing with Morten and his Norweigian Vikings.
Shy had no success on the Marlin either.

We are back on Ascension and are fishing for the last few days with our very good friends from Italy, Stefano, Jacopo and Massimo. Marlin fishing is not hot but the fish we see is big. Today we pulled the hook on a 500 to 600, two days ago we raised a 700 plus and the day before we jumped one off 20 meters from the leader of about 500 plus. Jigging goes quite good for us and we have been catching Amberjacks up to 60 pounds and tuna around the same size. Shy caught a nice fish of 850 pounds two days ago.
