Friday saw the first trip of the season for Ocean Actives 40 footer “Al Sayyed”. A nice early start had us leaving the Dibba Marina just as the sun was peeking over the horizon and we were greeted by a beautiful flat sea literally boiling with small skipjack and long tail tuna always a promising sign!
Our first stop was Mogi Reef where we had a school of small GT’s pass through and do their best to obliterate the chisel nose plugs and small Halco poppers we were fishing with, amazingly we never hooked up and the school moved on to harass the inhabitants of another reef.
Our next stop was white rock which was going ballistic with schools of Queenfish, Big eye Trevally and GT’s smashing bait fish. Everyone manned a light flick stick and we were into a solid 2 hours of nonstop action, we eventually stopped for lunch with fish busting all around the boat and just being ignored by a bunch of tired anglers!
