Bill Floyd and his crew enjoyed ideal conditions and a great White Marlin bite Thursday. By 11:15 AM the Pelican and crew had released 9 Whites. Then a 200 + pound Blue one ate a bait on light tackle and kept them busy for three hours. After releasing it they managed another White totaling 11 Billfish for the day.
Season High!
Despite rough seas the Pelican made it out to catch and release 19 of the 27 White Marlin they raised. The fleet averaged catches in the low teens.
White Marlin bite remains strong!

Chef Light and his entourage finished up a three day stint on board the Pelican with good numbers. The last day ended with a Billfish count of 9 White Marlin and a Blue One. Overall the fleet average was good as nice weather holds on.
Choppy but productive
