East Cape - Rock and roll blues

East Cape - Rock and roll blues

East Cape has been plugging away for weeks with great weather and action packed fishing. Seas were dead flat calm and water temps around 83 degrees until the middle of the week when out of nowhere the wind picked up for two days and we rocked and rolled. Water temps dropped to 80 degrees with the wind but has now bounced back. Anglers had to hang on to their boat and their rods as the rock and roll didn't slow down the bite. Current weather can be seen live on our webcam: http://teamjenwren.com/our-webcams.html

For the moment, it appears tuna have left the building but billfish, wahoo, dorado and roosterfish have picked up the slack. We are experiencing the best blue marlin action I have seen in more than 10 years. Striped marlin and sailfish are also in the billfish mix.

One afternoon we found a school of porpoise and could see tuna feeding. We stayed out until 5:30 trying to get them to go. Flew the kite and tried everything but the kitchen sink. Right now the tuna just don't want to do the dance.




Dorado action is picking up

52lbs dorado could have been worth a new truck in the dorado shootout next month

Needlefish are normally a pest but this grande was fun to catch. Check out the green choppers.


Lots of bubba sized roosters cruising beaches
