     Well the ocean looked good on the Boynton inlet cam2-3ft, by the time I got past the reef it was a solid 4ft seas. Rain gear took care of the spray so a trolling we will go. Zigzagged in  and out 200 to 350 ft. Scattered weeds at 300. Picked up a small dolphin in 200ft on a blue & silver Billy Bait than a skip jack at about 280 on the same rig. Next a bonita at 220, barracuda at 250. In an effort to take a break from the wave crashing over the boat I turned with the waves SE.  Got out to 550ft  found a sizable weed line. Crystal blue on the east side green on the western side, like God drew a line in the sea. Ten min later I came across a pod of about 15 real dolphins, they swam with the boat for 20 min. Then the Big hookup on the left rigger . Not on the 50’s or the 30 but on the tld 20. Just ripping line out. Managed to get my down line out of the water, didn’t  need that fouling things up. Half hour in I started gaining line. By now I’m at 500ft with 6ft rollers and there they are again the dolphins surfing the waves w/my hooked fish below them. Spooked the fish into swimming toward me. Like they were trying to help. Finally started to see some color and I got nerves, not the bright blue- green I was hoping for but BROWN. Crap I thought I hooked one of the dolphins. 35 min I get it to the surface it was a 5ft lemon shark. Never caught a shark trolling before never mind on an  artificial. Was a heck of a day beats working!
