We had just got lines out and saw a big school of tuna breaking we got ahead of them and hooked up and got a 25 pound blackfin in the box, are 5th this week. we tried to find the school again but no luck. About 30 minutes later we saw another school blowing up but couldn't get ahead of them before they went back down, what an awesome show.

We trolled over some near shore reefs. We cought some juvenile amberjack and got 2 nice blackfin tunas

The blackfin had been showing up near the pasd so thats where we started and in the first 2 min. of trolling we hooked up double, but wrong species. After catching several false albacore we decided to move down towards the pier and didn't take long and we found a good king mackrel and several more albacore. So we made a decision to just keep working furter out and cought another king and finally we hooked up and knew wright away it was likely a blackfin tuna and was wright 26 pounds. 25 fish total , 1 blackfin, 3 king mackerel, a short amberjack ( season opens sept. 1st) 1 spanish, bite by barracuda, 1 barracuda, and 18 false albacore. What a awesome day,
