The Gambler had a good offshore trip. Nearly caught our limit of yellowfin tuna, 40 to 70 lbers. Most of the yellowfin were caught in the dark on butterfish or sardines. A few were taken on jigs too. There were also a 150 and a 100 lb swordfish caught during the night. The swords took regular baits that were floated out for tuna --nothing special. Also caught a few mahi in the dark and saw a mako shark and a blue shark.
The longfin albacore bite was hot from just before sun rise and they through for the rest of the day light hours in flurries and lulls. Light leader and flat lines helped during the day light. We still managed a few yellowfin during the day light too.
Great trip, great group of guys, awesome weather.
Still room on some of our upcoming trips. For most recent availability, call Jill at 732-295-7569
