| Went out trolling solo today hoping to catch my first solo billfish, feeling pretty good after missing three just last week. Hilton's showed the blue water near the nipple to elbow and diminishing. Had a bill chasing a naked ballyhoo around 10:30 that just wouldn't bite. There were scattered weeds in around the nipple with some grass trying to form a line. As I made my way towards the elbow the water was darker and the grass disapeared. Trolled back towards the nipple and picked up a couple good sized dolphin and watched a cool water spout. 
Hard to tell size of dolphin in the cooler, but it was a good one. Next time I will carry someone to hold the fish to put it in perspective. MScontender

| Solo sounds exciting - I guess you would put it on autopilot while you fight/landed them? Thanks for the post on water quality - we're headed out ot the elbow/nipple area later today for an overnighter. Will let you know what we see and how we do...not much help from the satellite services as there's been a lot of cloud cover the past few days.
