| Ascension Island - 2008 Reports 31.01.2008 Finally the wheather was normal again and we had a decent number of marlin in the area ! First Matthias raised a nice one around 11 we saw our first blue at 1pm but the 500+ fish was not in the mood and stayed deep under the blue breakfast ,faded off and came back after a turn . We tried to tease her but no chance.In the afternoon Matthias had bite also of a nice one and pulled him off again. We saw one fish swimming parallel with the boat wich never came to the spread and raised anotherone wich almost tried to bite the Krakatao but then decided that this would be too much work ! Itīs good to see them back here now they just have to change there behaviour ! 30.01.2008 Still unusually calm and not much action here. Matthias raised a nice blue again but no bite. 29.01.2008 We fished half a day for marlin but saw nothing interesting. On the mooring we caught tuna , oilfish and two sixgills. 28.01.2008 We had a bite of a very small billfish (sail or spearfish) today and some attacks from dorados that was it . Matthias pulled the hook on a 500 pound blue. 27.01.2008 We started late today and saw a couple of small tunas but no billfish. On our mooring Henrik and Kent caught Yellowfins and amberjacks and lost three sixgills.

| 04.02.2008 Finally we had a good day marlin fishing again ! We went out at 11 and after half an hour a 700 pound blue crashed the Krakatao (legendlures) and after a hard deep fight Georg finally caught his first ascension blue ! We kept on trolling in flat calm weather and at 1.30 pm we got another crashbite on the hawaian breakfast (Black Bart ) George also caught this 400 pound marlin and we finished the day with some more yellowfins on the mooring ! 03.02.2008 Nothing for us again except the bottomfish for dinner. Matthias had 180 pound rat ! 02.02.2008 We saw nothing trolling today and caught some amberjacks jigging. Matthias caught a nice 700 pound marlin. 01.02.2008 We did a late start today and raised 1 blue about 500 pounds but no bite again ! In the evening we caught yellowfins on the mooring.

| 05.02.2008 Anotherone bites the hook ! On his last day Georg caught another nice size ascension blue marlin. The 700 pounder eat the hawaian breakfast around 1pm and was quickly caught after a surface fight with some nice jumps. Matthias caught 2 around 300 pounds today and had two more bites of better size fish so it looks like there are some around now. Tommorrow nobody fishes.
