Spent today with a super fun crew of big time hunters from PA looking for a couple tuna bites. Morning was slow with only a white marlin and a mako encounter. Finally got a double of yellowfin around noon. Worked the area and got jumped by yet another marlin who really wanted our spreader bar. Ended the day with another single yellowfin bite. Back in the slip with three yellowfin in the box. Not...

Another day of deep drop action with the guys from DE. Got a rude slap-in-the-face when we tried sending down 36 oz. only to find it wasn’t enough…not even close. Worked several spots all day with finicky fish while battling some of the craziest current I’ve ever seen to nick out 27 tiles when the bell rang just 3 shy of our limit.

Out for a day of tuna fishing but hearing about some very hungry bluefish instead. Our first 30 minutes of trolling finds us covered-up by 15 lb.+ chopper bluefish destroying our stuff. As the other boats pull out I ask the guys if they’d consider going after tilefish instead since these blues are going to make our day miserable and costly. The guys love the idea! Made the 25 mile run to find...

Ran south with a father and son duo looking for some triggerfish. Bite was spotty but the triggers that were biting were jumbos. The guys also had a ball throwing spoons to some 2-3 lb. bluefish for the smoker. Back in the slip with a limit of bluefish and a boat imposed limit (7 per man) of triggerfish.

Today finds us working the same hill as yesterday looking for a couple bluefin bites in some very sporty conditions. Our first bite comes after about 15 minutes but isn’t pulling quite like a bluefin. Turns out the flase albacore, aka: turkey, have moved in. The rest of the morning all we could manage were turkey bite. Regardless of what we did or where we went, more turkey bites. Finally...

Made a run to our bluefin grounds today based on some info I got last evening from a fellow captain. Our first bite takes about an hour and we put a “under” in the box. The next fish comes shortly thereafter and we put another “under” in the box. Spent the next two hours looking around before a nice 45″ under explodes on a spreaderbar. With the boat in neutral our wwb takes off and...

Yesterday it seemed we cleared the inlet with every boat in the state of MD. Today I’m fairly certain it was every boat on the east coast. Ran 50 miles and set out our spread. Hours pass and nothing…..except lots of boats zigzagging everywhere. With a tilefish hole nearby we decide to drop. Couple drifts, a couple fish. Guys decide to leave the tiles and keep looking for something big. We...

Ran 55 miles south with what seemed like all every other boat in MD too. Started in 50 fa. and worked out to the 100 with no encounters. Finally, sometime around 10:00 we get our first bite, a double, but only one comes tight. Couple minutes later we put our first yellowfin in the box. A few more circles and we add another yelllowfin to our total. The next hour is dead so I push out a little...

Out with a crew from PA who come bearing gifts. Some of the best sweet bologna I’ve ever had from a little butcher shop just outside Lampeter, PA. First part of the day is dead but sometime around 9:30 I start hearing of a few bites. Shortly after we get our first encounter of the day, and double that sees one yellowfin going in the box. Next bite comes shortly after and we add another...

Didn’t think tuna fishing could get much better than yesterday but today’s make-up trip discovered dreams really can come true. Our first baits hit the water at 7:15 am and by 9:15 we have 16 yellowfin in the box. Absolutely some of the best trolling action you could ask for. Back in the slip at noon with some very happy and tired anglers.
