“Well we got extremely lucky today finding a big school of bluefin tuna, offered the Searcher’s report for July 22. “It didn’t happen until 11 am, so we were a little worried if we were going to connect today. It all worked out though. We drifted for five and a half hours and landed 51 bluefin and 5 nice size yellowtail. We stayed until the bait ran out. Everyone had a chance at some bluefin tuna.

“The weather cooperated with light winds and hardly any swell. We left from 163 miles from home so we are going to be a little late. All in all a great trip with 102 bluefin tuna, five yellowtail and four dorado.”

FB TEST Jun 22 (2.5 day) Offshore

June 24th, 2012|Trip Reports|

Good morning,

We got into an area of fish last night around 12:30.  There were some opportunities to catch some 25-50# fish on the lures.  We scratched up a few handfulls until the sun came up. Now that the sun’s up, it is very hard to get a bite. There is still an incredible sign of bluefin around.  Hopefully this afternoon we’ll catch a few more.

Good evening,

We have been seeing this fish all day and we have managed to scrape up a decent sample.  The ones we have landed are 25-100#, mostly in the 40-50# range.  Pretty tough fishing still but it seems like it may be on the upswing.

We’re hanging out and hoping for a hit this evening.
