Maiden voyage! Trolling 5/18

We headed straight out towards the ledge at 0500 from wapoo landing on my new 29ft Triton’s maiden Voyage. A slight chop on the way out but trim tabs saved us a ton of time and backache. Dropped lines at 170ft around a nice mat of weeds and had two dolphin on before we could get the third line out. Started trolling out and caught a few more up until 220ft. Didn?t do anything so we headed deep to about 700-800ft and did nothing there. Reading the posts before, that seems to be the trend. Headed back in and caught a few around 180-200ft. Had to come in a bit early but finished the day with 12 decent dolphin. 15-25 pounders. No Bulls but enough meat for a while. It was the Wife’s first dolphin and offshore trip so it was a very successful and enjoyable maiden trip. Lookin forward to next weekend already.

Nice job.

Got to love success first time out! Did they hit pink and blue skirts? Nice fish!

Mostly hit blue/white and green/white. Had two hit a big black/red wahoo bait on a plainer as well.
