Title: Sonia's day out Sharking 6/9
Post by: Capt. Joe G on June 12, 2013, 12:13:19 PM

Well with the cancellation of SJ Tournament, I want to get Sonia out Sharking and spend some time breaking her into using the harness..we ran always out to hoping to find some tuna first. First location, whales, dolphins , birds and turtles , put the spread out and tuna crushed the spread a few times but no hook ups. Then we went into shark mode.. First hour into the drift , long line screams out. Put Sonia in her harness and shark goes nuts.. I though for sure mr Mako.. ..but nope ended up with 200lb dusky.. One nasty bastard next to the boat..sorry no pics.. Then another lines screams out.. She's tight again.. Big monster blue shark... We made a move and set another slick , didn't take long 2 on now.. Both big blue sharks... The woman is a machine and putting the screws to them.. After a few hours of nothing made another move. This drift seemed like it as going to be the one..we could see sharks in the slick but no takers.. Finally had the deep bait start screaming out fast. Ok maybe we got him.. After 30 minutes its a huge blue shark unreal how big.. In all a great day out with her and she's ready for Mako Mania..

Thanks capt Joe ..

Weekly shark trips on on now

Joe, good luck next week and be safe. We'll be out there Saturday as well with confidence(notice no hopes? LOL) of landing a nice big Mako to weigh in on both tourneys like some of these early reports that are coming in with 200+lbers. (Just stay away from the Thurs crew thing with da bombs!!! LOL)
