Bluefin Tuna Fishing 3/20/10

Finally some beautiful weather on the Outer Banks. The wind was calm and the ocean was flat. Started the morning off down South on the edge of the Gulfstream. Looking for Bluefin's and Yellowfin Tuna's. The Yellowfin's weren't around but got into a good bite with the Bluefin's. We caught three Bluefin's in the 60" range that averaged around 150 to 200lbs. We can only keep one Bluefin per day. With over 3knots of current it takes a little time to get a fish this size to the boat.

February Rock Fish

The Birds are eating the bait not far away from the beach which means Stripers are here.

Going to go check on the pup this morning. If he is still there they are going to send him to VA Beach to make sure he is okay.
