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.

What does a Capt do when he has a day off, hang out on the beach of course. Spent some days lately chasing sharks on the beach here in Hatteras.
