Cape Verde 30 May

The last 4 days Smoker and Doña Pi went to San Antao due to strong winds on Sao Vicente.We fished with nice guys from Norway Christian, Guttorm, Oddvar and Thor. Especially San Antao with staying in the remote village of Tarafal was a great experience for them.
Smoker went 2 for 6 on the trip
Doña Pi was 5 for 7.
Smoker will go to San Nicolau today for a few days as there were some promising reports from this island.

After 2 days on land we fish again with Tito, Juan Jose, Luis and Ariel from Las Palmas, Gran Canaria.
Day 1 we went to the deep water as there is no bait and fish on the shallow of San Pedro, we fianlly went 1 for 1.
Today we tried San Antao and were lucky, final result was 2 for 5. One really nice bite on the teaser and we hooked him perfectly on the pitch bait.

Cape Verde 17 May

Franz, Bastian, Stefan and Werner from Germany had real bad luck with their week . On of their days had to be cancelled due to bad weather and also the remaining days was facing strong winds and few fish.
In four days we only caught 1 Blue ( Werners first Blue ever), lost another 2 and raised one more. For the whole fleet the fishing was really slow with only few Blues caught. I feel sorry for the guys as they could not see the Marlin bite CV usually provides.
The weather will improve by thursday.
