Mimi tuna
Fished the Mimi Monday Into Tuesday , ran to somewhere in the Hudson. Started by pot hopping and put 28 mahi in the boAt. Then we trolled to 8pm with no love. On the chunk was a slow start, around 10 pm first yellow hit the deck caught on the chunk. 30 min later had a little flurry and I lost a fish due to failed knot! Ugh. Then around 11 a few more bites , so not to tangle any one I did some jigging and hooked a beast on a gold jig. 1 hour later and lots of pain a 180lb bigeye my first hit the deck.( caught on 60lb jig outfit) 3 other bigeyes also came about same time A lull for an hour or so and a few more yellow bites so I jigged again. And bam another big badass bigeye , fought for 45 painful minutes only to loose him 20 feet from the gaff! Added 2 more assist hooks to jig and dropped down and game on again for another 50 minute battle , lots of pain and loose him 10 ft from gaff . Ugh again . Stayed at rail to 4am with no love on the chunk. Slept a little then back at it at 6am no love till 8. Trolled 1 longfin and was time to head for the barn! Totals was 4 bigeye to 180 1 longfim and 7 yellows. 20 plus fish lost do to operator error or equipment failure . Mimi crew was great !

Re: Mimi tuna
That Big Eye is what we are served as toro (fatty, belly susi). We usually don't get the giant Bluefin. Virtually all of that goes to Japan.
Love that sh%$ !
