Capt. Peter Morello generously donated his boat, My Other Honey, for auction for a half day fishing trip to benefit the SSC college scholarship program.  The fortunate recipients included Ken from St. Louis, Terry from Carlyle, PA, and Nick from Reston, VA.

Yesterday, Peter took them out...and...he found fish.  They caught 11 dolphin, jumped off a sail, and boated a wahoo.  Lost a wahoo at the boat trying to flip in a gaffer, and released a weehoo…all by 10:00A.  Ended up with 14 dolphin, and came in at 1:00p.

One of the guys asked, "Not having fished here before, we don't have anyway to gauge this...is this a normal day, a slow day, or a good day?"

Capt. Peter's reply, "on My Other Honey, it's about normal."  Mate Tony's (under his breath) reply,"Right!"

Whatever kind of day it was, it was terrific!

Erika Long and George Federka report that fishing was good last week on the west coast.  Ericka reports that they caught and released 60 (and a few trout) and kept four.  "We had a great guide", she said.
