Offshore trip over the weekend

Headed out of Fourchon on Saturday in search of whatever we could find. Caught a bunch of red snapper on the way out. Decided to go to a sunken platform and see what we could do. As we were pulling up to it a tuna busted the water. Really weird for where we were. Dropped a few lines and started trolling. Every time we would pull over the platform we would catch red snapper. It was strange, pulling at 4.5 knots and hammering big red snapper while trolling. Ended up going to a platform nearby. Started catching huge red snapper, bull reds and white trout. Caught three white trout over 20 inches. Went back to troll the reef and caught some more red snapper and 2 nice kings. Lost about 5 or 6 other kings. All in all we caught somewhere around 45 red snapper, 6 bullreds, 3 white trout, a ramera (spelling?) and a few other misc fish.
