Ran to the Baltimore looking to find some mahi and then add some tilefish to the box. Pulled past more lobster gear than I can remember without seeing any mahi. Didn’t help that the lobster boat was hauling their gear right next to us or the fact that the water unbelievably dirty. Turned our attention to tilefish and we weren’t disappointed. With less than five fish to our limit the folks...

On the hunt for tuna with a crew from PA. Decided to run to the chunking hole that was so good to us two days ago. Less than twenty minutes after setting the anchor we have our first fish on the line, a blt yellowfin. Two minutes later our second fish is tight, a turkey. Sure that we’re gonna crush em, I’m running to the bow with my rod. By now a couple of my buds, very good chunkers, have...

Made a big run to the deep with the girls for the 2016 Poor Girls Open looking for marlin. First encounter comes mid morning when a white marlin pops up behind the mid rigger. Dave quickly feeds the bait then hands off the reels to our lucky lady. After a great fight we have the fish next to the boat for the release. Our next encounter has a small white tracking our baits but will not take any...

Decided to roll the dice and run to the chunking hole looking to find a couple legal yellowfin. First drift produced two fish, one 28″ keeper and one throw back. Next two drifts, nothing. Decided to anchor which made all the difference. The next two hours produced 9 more keeper yellowfin as well as several skipjack and turkeys. By 11:00 this crew of three from the greater Harrisburg, PA area...

Ran back south with a crew of three who tell me they’ll be happy if they can just catch a couple mahi. Found a couple balls I missed yesterday and luckily they were holding some fish. After covering all the gear for a second time we move over to the tilefish ground and the guys have a ball catching tiles and a couple sea bass. The guys opted to end the day early and beat the pending wind.

Out with a crew of UWV Mountaineers for a day of Mahi & Tilefish action. Worked the southern gear in the morning and scratched together a decent catch of mahi mostly on light tackle. With the gear all covered we throw out a trolling spread on the way to the tilefish grounds. After about 10 minutes a sailfish pops up behind our long rigger and takes the bait. While Derick is doing battle...

Forced to hang fairly close to the beach both days due to strong offshore winds. The false albacore bite (aka: Turkeys) was red hot and both crews found out just how hard these small tuna can pull. Bonus fish on the 11th was a nice 16 lb. mahi.

Ran south with a crew of guys from Lancaster PA. Idea was to hammer the tilefish in the Washington canyon. With about ½ a mile left to go I decide to swing by a couple lobster balls with baits that Dave threw out in a hurry. With all the fishing pressure of the last few days (White Marlin Open) I’m fairly sure this gear will not produce. Well, the second ball proves me wrong as a couple...

Pushed east with three generations of a family from western PA on board, the Sr. most angler 85 years young. With flat calm conditions I set out toward an area just north of where we fished yesterday. Set out the trolling spread and started looking around when I noticed some red crab gear and decided to have a look. The next three hours provide outstanding mahi action mostly on light tackle. Even...
