Coral Bay with Cpt Bernie
Just arrived home from our annual Coral Bay trip and what a trip it was. We decided to go for the sole charter for three days this year and i must say we will be doing that again. While some of our fellow fishers were not overly impressed that the only available boat in town was tied up for three days, we definatley benefitted from having the space and luxury of 4 people fishing a variety of methods on the MAHI MAHI II.
The catch and fishing techniques we enjoyed were very varied and succesful. A day on the red emperor followed by switch baiting for sailfish and a day fishing out wide for the ruby snapper and monster cod was a highlite. All followed by various hookups trolling in sail fish alley where sails and marlin were hooked. In all it was the most succesful and well run trip we have had, and i challenge you all to get up to Coral Bay, hook up with Bernie and and get yourself in some of these photos below.

Brilliant reds
Looks like the captain looked after you. I certainly do not see reds like that on the boats i fish from. Well done mate, any more pics.
