Fish On- well I moved down here for a couple reasons financial was one of them. Thus far I have mixed opinions on living and fishing here. When I first arrived in Feb the Stiper fishing was incredible this lasted until early March. Since then it has been pretty slow for inshore fishing. There are small Blues around, some very large Cobia which have lock jaw at the moment, and I hear Spanish Macks are out there. What I have quickly learned is that a 21' boat is a great option for New England waters but really has it's limitations here. Oregon Inlet is a nasty place. To fish this area safely I think a 25' or larger is the best option.

The offshore action here is incredible YFT, Sails, Marlin ( a 900lb Blue plus was brought into my marina last week caught 30 miles offshore), Dolphin are all out there now but it's a 25-mile run out and I haven't had a day off where the weather has allowed a run yet. The Giant Bluefin will be 8-10 miles off the beach but I did not get a chance to try for them this past season.

Well guys it looks like your first shot at tuna is probably this weekend out around the acid barge. I doubt I'll be fishing at all this weekend, we have guests coming. Good luck and let us know how you do.

179,
Hope you slay them down there. Send us back some pics!

I wish I had the chance to fish with you for a day while you were here. If you ever come back for a cisit and don't bring your boat let me know. I'll take you out.

MM,

Fish on,
I don't know it for a fact, but the fact is that they were spotted at the horns and off southeast light over the weekend, so I'm speculating that they will be in the vicinity of the barge this weekend. If I could go this weekend I'd give it a shot. If I caught I'd shut up about it.
