We needed a Prince!

After a couple days of island hopping and beaching it, I was ready to wet a line again. Unfortunately we waited just long enough for the wind to kick up. We are now docked at The Bluff House Marina on Green Turtle Cay. Green Turtle Cay is an out island, across the Sea of Abaco from Great Abaco Island. Great Abaco Island stretches about 100 miles long, mostly North & South and we are about 1/3 of the way down from the North end. The closest access to the Atlantic is about 8 miles South through Whale Cay Channel. It is the most treacherous channel in the Abacos. With the wind at 15 to 20 knots we were a little spooked but made our way through the cut without any problem. With the wind ripping out of the Southeast we decided to fish our way so we would have "following seas" back to the North to Powell Cay Channel which was about 18 miles. The bed sheets were really flying and the waves off our stern caused a lot of heaving and yawing (terms we learned in Seaschool). We trolled from 300 to 2500 feet of water catching only one Cuda about 15# and had another hit or two but that was it. Can't have a banner day every day. We were told later that there was a report of a good Dolphin catch earlier in the day, but did not see any birds working and no floating magical piece of debris. They say the Dolphin continuously eat and gain an inch or two in size per month, so I guess maybe they will be bigger the next day we can get on them.
