Lundy with his catch for the day

  We had Lundy for our charter today. We call him Lundy on Monday because that is the day of the week he likes to fish.He usually brings one other person with him but today he was just ready to get away and came by himself. We had to wait a little this morning because of the fog and ended up leaving in it anyway as it seemed that it was not going away any time soon. Another boat and I eased out the channel together and on into the ocean. It stayed foggy most of the day with a few clear spots here and there. It cleared up about 15 minutes before we left. 
    The day started out for us with a double header Wahoo first thing. We caught 5 through the day and lost that many more mostly because we were fishing tuna gear and Wahoo usually win out over fluorocarbon. Even when we put some wahoo baits in the water they still ate the other which is generally the way it goes. We managed to scrap out a decent catch of Black fin tunas as well. At one time we had a couple of bigger tunas on that I suspect were the nicer class Yellow fin but they got away from us.                                                                                                                                                                          Besides the fog the weather was beautiful and the fishing was good. Thanks again Lundy. We'll see you on another Monday soon.

You never know what will pop out of the fog

 

Great Yellow and Blue Fin Tuna fishing continues

Nice Yellow Fin

And Another

The crew with some of our catch

We had a great day of Yellow Fin Tuna fishing today. It was rather choppy today but the fishing was good. It was a steady bite though out the day which is nice. The fish were in the 35 to 45 pound range. In the afternoon just before quitting time we had four on and a couple of Mako sharks came to pay us a visit. They bit the tail off one before we got him but a couple of the others were not so lucky. All we got back were the leaders from where the sharks ate the tunas and bit them off. That kinda sucked but what are you going to do? The weather for this week looks beautiful and the fishing is great so come on down and lets go chase a tuna or two. 

Excellent tuna fishing continues

The Yellow Fin tuna fishing has been excellent the last few days and there have been some blue fins around as well. Yesterday the Yellow fin were rolling around and showing good. The wind breezed up to around 25 by late morning , not what the weather man had called for at all, and the fish shut off. They were still showing well but would not bite. We had them rolling all in the spread one time and the just went on. It is still a beautiful site to see. We've got plenty of open days so if you're looking to do some fishing then give us a call. The beginning of the week looks beautiful. Check in Sunday for the report we'll be fishing that day.
