my weekend on the water

My weekend on the water 

Last week Friday school was out so a couple of my friends and I went fishing. I woke up at 3:00am and got the boat ready then we headed out, we wanted to get to 12 mile bank before the sun came up but we didn't make it. We got to the bank at 7:30am we already had are lines out and we where trolling along the edge of the bank trying to catch a Wahoo but we didn't catch anything. After a while of trolling around we finally found some birds and they were diving so we headed straight for them, there was flying fish flying and Mahi Mahi jumping. All of a sudden two rods went off and we where hooked up on two nice size Mahi Mahi. After about ten minutes we finally got the fish in the boat. We got tired of trolling so we stop the boat and made some deep drops, I was jigging for bottom fish and my rod went off and it was something big. I was fighting this fish for a pretty long time and I was starting to get kinda tired but I new I couldn't stop so I kept reeling. Finally i got the fish to the boat and it was a twenty pound grouper and it was worth the fight. Everyone on the boat was happy so put out the big lures and headed home.
