by Dennis Muhlenforth reports there was wild tuna action during this week’s trip of the Voyager from Point Pleasant. He said over 100 yellowfins up to 85 pounds were caught and others lost.
The Golden Eagle had another fine report from their Tuesday offshore fishing as ” some nice size tuna 70-85 pounds” were boated along with some lost and 40 to 50 mahi up to 25 pounds. Today’s bluefish trip was good with 2-pounders hitting on long drifts and many limits taken, Run-Off poppers were most effective.
At Atlantic Highlands, Capt. Ron Santee found better action with jumbo porgies on his Fishermen along with a showing of triggerfish with one angler catching three of them.
Capt. Scott Hilliard is finishing out the fluke season on his Prowler 5 through the weekend. He reported the weather as being too beautiful today, resulting in little drift. Two fluke limits were taken as there were 18 keepers on the boat.
A small craft advisory is up from late tonight to Friday afternoon. The morning forecast is for southwest winds at 15-20 knots before dropping to 10-15 in the afternoon. Showers are likely.
