Great day offshore to celebrate Austin's father's birthday. We went 8 for 8 on yellow fin tuna and 0/1 on white marlin. The marlin took the flat line bait and became unhooked shortly after the angler settled in for battle.
Our first overnight trip aboard the FINATIC this season was a success! We ended up going 6-7 on Mako sharks and brought the 1st Mako of the season back to the Ocean City Fishing Center.
Saturday June 22nd in the Poormans Canyon. Caught 12 yellowfin tuna all but 2 were undersized. We also caught 2 mahi and a skipjack tuna. Great trip with a great crew. We look forward to a future trip with them!
We fished the 20 Fathom Fingers with hopes of hooking a thresher or mako shark. After several hours of drifting we were finally rewarded with a nice blue shark that ate a whole bluefish bait. Austin Ellis was the angler and this was Austin's first time shark fishing offshore. Congrats on your catch Austin! Brandon Malamphy working the 1st mako shark of the season to the boat. Fish was caught on a custom JPR tuna road outfitting with a Tiagra 80 reel. |
