WEEKLY FISH COUNT
YELLOWFIN TUNA: THIRTEEN FISH KEPT (#15-#45)
DORADO: TWO FISH KEPT (#25)
“FLY HOOKER” FISH REPORT FOR 8 MARCH, 2004
Greg and Vicky Cuddahy were our anglers today and really were looking forward to
getting into some fish. Of course it would have been nice to get a Marlin hooked up,
but so far this year it has been really slow for the Billfish. No Marlin for them, but they
were able to get some fish in the boat. Juan and Manuel took off to the west and
ended up about 28 miles out, just past the San Jaime Bank. There they found blue
water and lots of Porpoise. Guess what? Yep, there were Tuna in with those Porpoise!
All in all they managed to get 5 Tuna between #25 and #40 into the box, and lost a
couple more. Some good fillets to have smoked and frozen, plus some for a fresh fish
dinner! We sure are glad you had a good time, and hope to see you again.
“FLY HOOKER” FISH REPORT FOR 9 MARCH, 2004
Dan and LuAnne Foster fished on the “Fly Hooker” today, and the weather here sure
was a lot better than the cold in Anchorage! The fishing was not as good as yesterday,
and the wind started to pickup early, but they were able to get into the Tuna for a
quadruple strike, getting all four fish into the boat. LuAnne started to feel queasy so
they guys headed back towards the lighthouse where the water was a bit calmer. No
more fish were found, but there was fresh fish for dinner and some to get smoked.
Sorry that you got a bit sea sick LuAnne, but glad you had a good time!
“FLY HOOKER” FISH REPORT FOR 10 MARCH, 2004
The Onderick party chartered the “Fly Hooker” for a half day trip today. It was a late
start s they left at 8 AM and the fish that the boat had been finding were more than 25
miles out, a little too far to go on a half day trip. The reason for the short trip was that
three of the anglers had not been fishing before, and were not sure that they could
handle more than that time at sea. Juan and Manuel did find porpoise close to home,
around 12 miles out, and they worked them hard, trying almost everything they could
think of. All they ended up getting was one hook-up on a Bonito, and it fell off when
close to the boat. Nobody got sick though! Perhaps next time a full day will work for
them, or the fish will be closer.
“FLY HOOKER” FISH REPORT FOR 11 MARCH, 2004
Jim Pickens, his son Jason and friend Dr. Jack Thielen are fishing today and
tomorrow with Juan and Manuel. Jim is an outfitter in the Wyoming/Montana area and
asked if they needed would it be all right to stay out a little longer. No problem, just let
Juan and Manuel know. Well, the wind had started to blow pretty good yesterday and it
did not stop last night. The water was rough and the fish were far away. Juan and
Manuel finally got into the fish when they were 33 miles to the south. Porpoise were
there, and they go four Tuna, all of them around 25-40 pounds, and caught one #25
Dorado on a lure and another one the same size on live bait. It was a long, rough trip
back but they came in with fish and flags flying. Our fingers are crossed that they have
better luck, and better weather, tomorrow.
“FLY HOOKER” FISH REPORT FOR 12 MARCH, 2004
Jim and Jason Pickens were back this morning, but Dr. Jack was not feeling well. In
his place was Jarred Williams. Jim let us know this morning that he wanted to be back
in at 1 PM as he had scheduled golf for the afternoon. No problem! Juan and Manuel
went south again, but due to time constraints were only able to get 29 miles out before
having to turn around and return. No fish were found and there were no strikes during
the trip. Juan said that on the radio the fish were being caught 42 miles out, 10 miles
further than yesterday, but the water was even more rough today than yesterday. I
hope your golf game was better than the fishing! Thanks Jim, perhaps next time the
fish will be closer and the water better!
