Seafood Charters Heading Offshore This Weekend

Anyone else going? Not sure where we will be yet, but the plan is to look for bluefin before heading to one of the canyons to try and find some yellowfins. The weather last week nocked us out of the game. I have trips scheduled for the next few weekends.
We still have room if anyone is interested for the last weekend in Sept (Sat 9/27 - Sun9/28) for a 24 hour open boat canyon run. Call for more details

Fifteen yellowfin tuna got clobbered on an overnight trip to the 100 Square at Hudson Canyon with Seafood Fishing Charters on Saturday to Sunday.

So the fishing was especially good in this mostly tougher season for tuna fishing, and most of the tuna were small, but one weighed 70 pounds. Two mahi mahi and an 8-foot blue shark were also landed. All the fish were caught at night, and most of the yellowfins were jigged, although butterfish, sardines and fresh squid were fished through the dark. Sardines caught two of the fish, and a squid caught one. One or two fish bit every hour until all heck broke loose at 3 a.m.

We also tried trolling for bluefin tuna at the Glory Hole on the way out, and two skipjacks were fought. The rest of the boats at the Glory Hole were chunking, but chatter on the radio sounded like the feed was slow. Waters at the Glory Hole were 66 degrees and at the 100 Square were 70 ½ degrees, with a temp break from 68 to 70 degrees found toward the beginning of the canyon.
