Wish we could fish off this boat!!!!
 

Here is some pics of Mahi mahi that are making a regular appearance out here offshore where I work. On this particular night i would say that there are probably a few thousand mahi's just tearin' up the flying fish. It was an awesome sight, I just wish the picture would have came out better so ya'll could have seen the massive amounts of fish.

Some more

last one

Nice pics! Would be awesome to land a couple of those.

where are you?

Thats awesome, I would love to get into them. That is in my top 5 eating fish.

I feel your pain. We get a few schools out here, but not like that.

That's awesome what a sight

That last one is a stud

Where you working right now?

WoW those things should be on the deck flopping around!

nice pics try to hand line one!!!! j/k

Nice pics

Thats awesome. And also the reason why I can't work offshore.. I'd be fishing more than working.. Especially since I've yet to get a Mahi.. Id be jigging for that bull.

Dang sucks you can't catch em...one of the perks of working. Offshore..I love hitches where they let you bring a rod...try to eat all the food in the freezer so you got room for meat...lol

Thats my problem . . . . . but i got a few bulls under my belt:D

Not everyone gets to go blue weekly hammaa.

I was on a lay barge with bisso marine one time on a lay barge about 60 miles out of fourchon...and they had 4 democrats who were on the day shift screaming and happy and jolly and all excited cause they was loading up on wahoo...i mean just as happy as ive ever seen they had about 10 of em laying on the back deck all you could see was teeth smiling lol...i told the welder i was fitting for to come look at this and we were rollin for about 30 minutes...i asked e how they was doing and they started telling me all about the wahoo and they was catching em on some cut bait...I didnt Have the Heart to tell these happy bastids they had been catching King Macs the whole time hahahahaha it was so funny though finally somebody told em and they didnt give a F...but Yuck lol thats gross cochon...

[QUOTE=yak'em-n-stack'em;300340]Where you working right now?


I am working in Walker Ridge 249.............we are supporting the BW Pioneer.

Great pics. Gotta be hard just being able to look at em.

[quote=bay_slayer;300550]damn you're still on that thing?thought they were supposed to move it to texas?....gawd the hours i made painting the everything on top deck with hand tools.....105/wk wire brushing, painting with brushes , and walking and walking somemore. ...is it still this ugly? http://a1.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphot..._6772469_n.jpg

Yeah its still pretty ugly.............but I know for sure it aint leaving this spot for years to come, unless something drastic happens or its running from a hurricane.

make that money man, BW has the bucks to put out, mind as well rake it in...

oh I dont work for BW and I dont work directly on the Pioneer.............we are contracted through Petrobras on a Chouest boat. I work for Oceaneering.

A friend of mine got invited to go to Cocodrie for the weekend(all guys who dont fish).When they got back and called me they said they didnt catch any trout or reds but they had two boxes full of catfish! We laughed so hard but didnt tell them they had two boxes of hardheads lmao

:rotfl::rotfl:

rotfl lol....

I'm at EW-305.

I'm trying to get out and make some real money soon.

There is definitely some money to be made out here.

Heading that way, bluewater here we come.

We will be in 28 glacier bay

Hope you filled the tanks............its about 140 miles due south of Houma. Bring an extra fishing pole and let me know when you get here so I can jump in your boat.

Gotta be 140 from the coast huh?
Because Marco polo is still in green canyon. And it is 140 from the coast

On rip charts y'all are like 30-40 miles south of mad dog it looks like.

That's wayyyyyy to far for a center console. Marco is about the outer limit. Similar distance as mad dog.

But the tuna are out there with this stupid loop current.

Shellman said the Tuna were busting out the water this morning at Ursa.
Boats pulled in and started tearing them up.

Ray. Your killing me

I didn't see them, I was sleeping.
Just heard about it from Shellman, he works days.

Tell me about the loop currrent...............it rippin right now at about 4 knots

yeah and 140 from the coast.........and nothing but blue water out here all the time......and freakishly large yellowfin that stay out here. We are out too far for anybody to fish out here anyways............we never see any fishing boats

We had the loop currents last hitch running 2 to 3 knots.
Less than 1 knot this hitch.

Yeah I was looking at y'all on rip charts last night. The current is rolling and y'all are in an eddy. That's why the fish are there

Tuna tearing up the water today.
Boats catching lottsa big big Tuna at Ursa today.
