One of my good mates here in Pohnpei is unfortunately heading back to Germany on Thursday. We have become fishing buddies over the last 12 months so it was only fitting that we go out for one last session. We quickly found the schools and ended up leaving the dollies in search of something else. We quickly found a few yellowfin schools but unfortunately so had the sharks. I donated few lures before leaving a little frustrated with these efficient killing machines spoiling our fun and turning my day into an expensive one. We found another school about ten minutes later. It was impressive to see the fish boiling on the surface. 10 - 20 yellowfin side by side on the surface chasing bait fish is something I will never forget. We had a double hook up on the first pass and managed to get them both in (minus one tail). The sharks sent that school down so we decided to call it quits and head for home. Yet another great day in paradise. 11 skipjack tuna, 6 yellowfin, 3 dollies and 1 stinky barracuda.
