Default Shark trip mudhole

Finally got to run offshore yesterday.Ran 40 miles in a 3to4 head sea at 25 mph.My seacraft sliced right through it with no problem.A 25 grady couldn't keep up with me.
We set our baits and started our drift when all off a sudden a 70ft Fin whale surfaced 10ft off my starboard side.It scared the crap out of us.Then two more showed up and swam circles around us for about 20 min.Awesome sight.
A small mako showed up in our slick but something spooked it.We then hooked and released a small Hammerhead.
Later on all 4 shark rods explode at the same time.
A pod of Bull Dolphin hit our baits.It was chaos.They jumped 6ft out off the water and were crossing lines.
Managed to get one.Never seen anything like it.Great trip.
