Little Tunny 10-12-23

[Detour66]

Headed out of the barn this morning to very calm seas and light winds. My intention was to do some bottom fishing for sea bass, blackfish etc. Hit some #'s that normally produce. Nothing but small sea bass and a few small taug. This wasn't working so it was time for Plan B. I saw some birds working in the distance so I took a ride. To my surprise it was False Albacore aka Little Tunny chasing rainfish. Funny cause I was talking to someone at the bait shop about the lack of them before I went out this morning. There where schools of them everywhere. Casted my favorite jig to them it was game on. Let me tell you these fish really fight and take drag. After catching 6 I decided I had enough. What a great day and nice change from bottom fishing. I hope they stay around for awhile. Tight Lines!
