Spearfish Are Here and They Are Hungry.
Spearfish Are Here and They Are Hungry. With fishing or should I say “catching” having been slow for a few weeks, the bite finally turned on. There have been reports of Striped Marlin and Spearfish in numbers showing up daily. We have had nice bites on Mahi Mahi too. Recently, on a half day afternoon family fishing trip, Ken Shaw from Edmonton Alberta landed this impressive 35+ lb Shortbill Spearfish. The past few days we have had multiple hookups. We’ve had a good couple of days landing two nice Spearfish and a Mahi Mahi and an Ono.

Greetings from Edmonton Alberta captain Chuck thanks again for the fishing trip Boxing Day how did Steve get you to put his name for the spearfish it was the old guy in the rugby shirt that caught it lol
Aloha Ken, my humblest apologies for giving credit to the wrong angler. We gave Steve his moment to shine, now the rest of the story is out. You, Ken Shaw did an awesome job fighting and landing this fine 35+ pound Shortbill Spearfish! Bring Steve back and we will give him another shot at caching his own billfish. Thank you both for your good sense of humor and I look forward to seeing you again. Sincerely, Captain Chuck
