Looking for Tuna

Looking for Tuna

John and his family from Northern Va joined us on board the bite me.

We went looking for tuna far and wide but only managed a couple of bites and caught SkipJacks.

The giant bluefins found us and we were not prepared having a spread of 50’s out.

Broke two off and pulled hooks on two after a long battle. We put out heavier tackle but could not locate them.

on the way home we stopped at the shoals and sight casted to big red drum for a day saver.

Thanks guys!

Good fishing coming up! April and May

Spring is one of my favorite times to fish. It is some of the best meat fishing we have all year

We have availability for April and May.

Traditionally April is our month for tuna, yellowfins and blackfins. May is good everything but its also when the big gaffer dolphin show up and the Blue Marlins!

Bluefins large variety

Bluefins large variety

New friends from Richmond on board today.

We started out where we’ve been getting them and they were no where to be found.

We got the call from up the line and decided to relocate about 30 miles away.

We were hooked up almost instantly and after about an hour released a large Bluefin of about #500.

He had another bite that broke off and hooked up again shortly after,

Fought this fish for over an hour and a halftime on heavy conventional tackle before parting the line very close to the boat.

They were stacked up thick for sure.

Ran out of time…..

Great group of folks on the bite me today, they had another crowd on the Hatteras Blue.

We had really good bluefin tuna action and we were able to keep one about 60″ probably around 200 pounds, pesky kings also.

Thanks guys
