Mon Aug 16 - Viking Fivestar Offshore Tuna

 

The great fishing continues!!

We have had excellent fishing the last couple trips with quality Yellow Fin and Swords. The trip before last we had a good shot of Yellows a few Albacore and 3 nice Swords. On our most recent trip we had our limit of quality Yellows up to 105lbs a half a dozen Albacore and 1 Sword.

Our most recent trip we picked away at quality Yellows for an afternoon of trolling but the night bite made the trip. We anchored up and had our first small Yellow in less then an hour. Most of the night was a random pick of a couple smaller fish until around 3 am and it was lock and load on the jigs with fish averaging 40-60lbs. Around 5:30 we started pulling the anchor while we still had fish on and made our way home early.

It was great to see some fish at night and hoping that continues into the fall. We are headed back out this afternoon and looking to do it all over again.
