I never put out the report for our trip on Weds Feb 22nd, my bad. So this chik Erin hit me up, "I wana catch a bluefin." Let's do it, so I made a few calls and got a trip together for her and off we went. Reports first thing were slow and we stayed away from the fleet as is my nature. About 20 min into the troll we came across a good school and 5 of the 6 rods went down. 1 pulled off right away, another broke off, we leadered and released 2 and Erin put a whooping on her 100lbr that we killed. Rest of the day was slow, we had a few good marks but they didn't want to play. Was a great day and wished I packed shorts. The next day I hauled to Ohio and am up her a few more days playing on the rivers for some steelhead.

Fished with a good crew on Thurs the 9th and killed a nice 100lb bluefin right away. We got setup again and released another in the 125lb class. We moved off looking for some of those butterball blackfin but the weather started to change. We decided that we had what we came for and went home intime to beat the winds.

Took a crew out Jan 29th looking to find a giant. Caught a few nice blackfin and we got our first big bite. Morgan hopped in the chair and worked that fish for almost 3hrs before the hooked pulled right at the boat, nice fish in the 400lb class. We ran back up and immediately killed a nice eater sized wahoo. Then we got 2 serious bites, 1 which broke us off. The 2nd one Maddie was working, that fish meant business but spent its energy on some serious runs in the first 2 rounds. Maddie made quick work of it and at 1hr and 20min we stuck the gaff. She started crying with tears of joy which nearly made me cry. Amazing to watch peoples reactions on the adventures. The fish tapes 100in with a 75in girth, by the numbers comes out to 703lbs.
