A great full day of big game sportfishing in the deep sea off the east coast of Antigua for guests of ReefView Apartments, Antigua - aboard the 45ft Hatteras "Obsession" - run by Captain Derek Biel out of the Catamaran Marina, Falmouth Harbour.
Landing a mixed bag of fish including barracuda, blackfin and skipjack tuna, - we even raised and hooked a blue marlin well over 100lb, which unfortunately threw the hook on its first jump after a smoking initial run.
However it was the 3 wahoo between 25 and 35lbs which saved the day, (including a double header) - falling to the deeper trolled ballyhoo baits on the planer and wireline outfits.
Capt. Biel kindly cleaned a wahoo and tuna for the happy ReefView guests - as the school of resident tarpon delighted the audience putting on their regular feeding show back at the Cat Marina.
I did this Tour and it was probably the best experience of my life, derick was a real good captain! and the other derick ( the assistant) was funny as hell

@mullan2512 Yeah - Capt Derek really knows his stuff..... He now also has a new BIGGER Hatteras - called Double Header - complete with a monster tuna tower. Can't wait to get out with him again! Good fishing
