Slight change in plans. Got a call last night from Hoopa with an invite from a friend of his out of Point Judith looking for crew for an overnighter to the edge, leaving Thursday morning returning Friday.. ![]() ![]() . How could we say no. ![]() ![]() Weather looks good so "Hoopa Drives the Boat" and "On The Edge" will be "On the edge".

| I am going to make this short and sweet. I have not slept in 2 days and am heading back out for a sharking trip in the morning. Left Point judith at 9:00am thursday morning aboard Hoopa's friends 40' Ocean yaht.. plan was to head to Atlantis troll all day tie up to a ball for a night of chunking and get back on the troll at first light. I was expecting to troll and chunk up tunas and Mahi but I never expected 5 Marlin as well!!! Thats right 5 MARLIN Hoopa was the first to play with the first of 4 whites a nice 80lb class white. Without getting into a lot of detail we went tight on 4 white marlin to 100 lbs and 1 Blue Marlin estimated 450 lb that hit a 4' bar 30' off the stern while we were clearing a small mahi and reseting the spread. Our final tally for the day was 20 mahi mahi in the box, 3 yft between 50 and 65 lbs in the box and 3 others lost at boat side. 1 white marlin landed and released (Hoopa will have to post the pics they are in his camera) 3 others lost after brief fights, and a huge estimated 450 lb blue marlin lost after an explosive hookup and 2 blistering runs on a 50 wide. We lost this fish to a broken main line and watched him porpise away from us with the bar he hit still in his mouth.... ![]() ![]() ![]() This fish almost took the capts 14 year old son who was on the rod overboard on the second run. If i had not grabed on to him he would have been "Swimmin wit da fishes" This fish was LIT UP, PISSED OFF , and just exploded like a rocket on his second run and LITERALY took the kid off his feet... All i can say is WOW. My thanks go out to Capt Elliot of the "Bill Fish" out of Point Juith RI and Hoopa Drives The Boat for inviting me out for a Great day and night of canyon fishing..I Can't wait till the next time... Thanks again Guys...
