Some big yellowfin

Hello Anglers,
We got some big yellowfin for the day but they were few and far between. We had a total of 8 fish from 110 to 156 pounds. There was a drift where we hooked 4 fish and landed one, a 140 pounder and we pulled the hook on one, the line broke on the other one and that looked to be a high 100, low 200 pound yellowfin, and the other fish we had in the skiff on heavy tackle we pulled on for well over an hour and a half we lost when the rod broke when the fish was 20 feet down and it looked like a 220 to 230 pound yellowfin. There was a few opportunities for us but as we all know these fish are not big for no reason, they are very tough and getting a good count on them is hard to do. We are going to try our luck elsewhere to see if we can catch a few more yellowfin so have a safe and happy new year and we will check in tomorrow. Shawn and the crew
