In between a half dozen yellowfin came the second swords of the night a nicer fish in the 130 pound class. It went through the charter 4 or 5 times before finally being close enough for the Poon.
So they anchored up in the Hudson Canyon on the east wall by the mouth and sent out the night time spread. The yellowfin started to show and an even dozen were put in the boat with almost all in the 25-30 pound class with one at 50 pounds.
It paid off as through the night they chunked 10 yellowfin in the 25 to 50 pound class. They pulled 20 very large dolphin off the log with the fish in the 15-25 pound class.
They head right for the tip of the Hudson Canyon and put the lines in around 3 30pm. By midnight they had 6 in the boat and then the bite slowed with only one more boated through the night.
They missed another white later in the day and then had a bigger blue marlin follow a small yellowfin hooked up on a Canyon Runner spreader bar right to the back of the boat and follow us for a minute and a half. 60 Canyon Runner 9 14-15 3 Yellowfin 5 Longfin Tiles MahiThe 60 Ritchie was back out Monday Tuesday on the third turn around in a row and had the Gene Petit charter out to the Hudson Canyon for the night bite.
Capt. Mark DeBlasio had the Dave Miguel charter out Thursday for another day of bluefin fishing at its best. This is the best bluefin fishing we've seen in years and the fish seem to now be up and down the Mudhole as inshore as 20 miles and out to 50 miles.
There were a few misses to begin the trip but by 8am they had 8 fish to their credit and then things slowed up. These first few fish were caught on jigs and sardines on the drift around the Princess area.
Capt. Mark DeBlasio took an open boat charter out to the Hudson Canyon on Monday but first stopped on the inshore grounds at around the Princess and in 10 minutes pulled two nice bluefin on the chunk on the drift with one coming on a sardine and another on a jig. Up on the troll in the morning nothing also happened again!So they picked up and ran back to those inshore numbers and again within 10 minutes had two bluefin and lost two fishing the same tactics.
