April 27, 2018 by Captain Chris Donato

Fun day on the #benchmark today fishing in Kona. 1 for 2 on shortbill Spear fish and had a short but fat 571 get tail wrapped and despite our best efforts couldn’t be revived. Beyond stoked for my best bud from back where I grew up to be able to get down here and crank on a few good ones. Congrats Andy and get on ya for handling up to 70lbs of drag to lift this girl !! This particular fish was one of the better bites I’ve seen on the short corner. Explosive and aggressive to say the least. Bart’s Breakfast was the lure that she inhaled. Beautiful day on the water, Fishing is heating up. #kona #hawaii #benchmark @pelagicgear #pelagichawaii#pelagucworldwide #bluemarlin #doa #bartlures @elitetacklegroup @bigtunateasers #dredgesKona fishing
