Good evening anglers,

We had a great afternoon, sliding on big breezers of this 40-60lb bluefin. They put on quite a show after lunch then dissapeared for a while. We found them again late and are getting a little opportunity on the flat falls. It's a very good sign of this fish locally. Time to come fishing!

We have our limit for two days of fishing on a beautiful grade of bluefin and are heading home. We still have a few spots available for a few weekday 2.5 day offshore trips.

Good morning anglers,

Happy Mother's Day! The fish we were on last night! They popped up a few miles away and we're currently in a plunker now. Most of the fish are coming on the sinker rig, and a few on the fly line as well.  Beautiful weather, good fishing. We couldn't ask for much more.

Good evening anglers,

We had a very long afternoon.  We looked at a very large area of bluefin today--mixed grade from 15-25lbs and 40-60lbs.  It was very frustrating to see fish shining all around the boat, boiling up a little, but not biting. At about 1pm we made a 50+ mile move and it paid off.  We were rewarded with a ripper of a flat fall bite from 11pm to 1am.  Just need a few more in the morning to finish up our quota.  We'll check back tomorrow.
