Sep 22 (Sep 21-24) Biter’s Private Charter 3 day

Good morning, 

 It took awhile last night but we got  on a school of 60-200# bluefin around 11pm and it stuck to the boat. We had a very good opportunity with lots of bites, lots of losses, but we still managed to boat enough for everyone, including this 230# fish.

We rolled into the east this morning and stopped on a small school. We have been picking away on 30-60# fish all morning now. It’s slow going with one or two at a time but they are nice fish and the weather is beautiful

This is flyline, 30lb fitness fishing.

Congrats to Jeanine, catching a jumbo again this year!

Sep 20 (Sep 18-21) Limited load 3 day

Good morning,
We’ve had some very good opportunities the last couple days and nights on 30-100# bluefin.  We’ve been seeing a good sign and doing a lot of drifting the past couple days and nights.
 It requires finesse fly line fishing on 40/50# outfit.  There’s a good sign again today and we are picking away this morning on mostly 60-100# bluefin.

Sep 9 (Sep 8-10) 2 Day Private Charter, part 2

Good evening,
We had a great day here today.  We started anchored up on the bank and had some good action on 25# yellowtail and 15-40# bluefin.  We left it before lunch. We were still picking but we wanted to mix it up.  We had a kelp early afternoon for all you wanted dorado.  It was full-speed aquarium style fishing.
When we got our fix we headed back to where we were last night and saw the same incredible sign of fish: miles and miles of all-size bluefin. It was quite a sight.  We caught a couple more 30-40# bluefin and ran out of time.

Sep 9 (Sep 8-10) 2 Day Private Charter

Good morning,
We had excellent fishing last night.  We stopped on a giant school of 50-150# bluefin and it stuck until we left it at about midnight. This last week there has been some excellent sign around and they’re biting.
We made a move out to the bank last night when the guys had enough of big ones, and we’re anchored up picking away on 25# yellowtail and 15-40# bluefin right now.  Beautiful weather and good fishing, and happy anglers!
