Title: Mango Man Strikes
Post by: Newell Nut on March 03, 2016, 10:17:53 PM
The darned Red Snappers are killing us but I managed to get 5 mangos and a mutton, my buddy Brian got a nice string and two other buddies got a couple nice stringers.

Boy, those are beautiful fish! I am hoping against hope that I'll have a chance to catch some pargo on my 8-day this summer; they are about the closest thing we have to a mango, I guess.  :)

Nicely done!

All of my buddies fish Newells and mainly the 540 3.2 and 631 3. When my wife is here fishing she catches her mangos with a 332 3.6. Four of use caught 14 mangos yesterday and a few muttons. We caught double that number of red snapper throw backs.

Our first two stops had only big red snappers and the 3rd stop we got lucky on the mangos and smaller red snappers.

The Pastime leaves the dock at 7:45am and returns at 3:00pm. Best party boat in the area and like anything else, if you know how to fish reef fish then you can do okay most of the time.

Sea Spirit got several barely legal cobias yesterday and we did not see any.

Those are fun reels. I have a collection of them and only use one of them occasionally on a IGFA 16. Fun set up when I am flat lining for mangos in the summer or nice flat lining for kings in the winter.

My buddy Brian and I had one more good day before he flies back to Boston. It was a great day all around the boat on the Pastime Princess with a fun crowd from the local Moose Lodge.

Thanks for sharing Dwight. You sure know how to take care of your friends.

Weren't you in Hawaii just a couple weeks ago ?? The discovery channel could do a whole series just following you around. I'm a bit jealous.


If you're around the pacific northwest this Aug/Sept I'll take you out for albacore.

Thanks for the offer. That would be a great fishing experience. Planning on Alaska in August with a good friend from Oregon. Headed back to Hawaii in two weeks to fish with John. The real reason for the trip is that my wife works over there but will work with on some rods if his shop is ready and wet a hook as well.

check out the web miss st. Augustine. Com I believe or just google it. I believe the boat starts to feel every day in May and then he does overnight trips almost every month until the end of the year. Sweet Boat awesome Captain I'm going April 1st come on! not sure if there's any spots left for this trip though.  Jamie
