Fishing Report 8/27/09



The Tuna fishing has been very good for the past two weeks,  many surface feeds creating quite a stir in most of the charters.  This week we had three trips,  first on out with Ralph and Tom with their two boys paid off with a nice 67"er.  Great job on the rod to them.  Next trip out we had multiple bites with fish of the same size.   Fish were everywhere crashing baits on surface with reckless abandon and then on Thurs. evening it was like someone flipped a switch because come Fri. morning we left the dock with Matt's group and the ocean was blank, nothing, nil.  It is absolutely amazing how these fish can move off.  That's fishing....   Hopefully they'll come back.  There is still plenty of bait around and the whales shows this year have been incredible.  On the inshore scene the Bluefish are in thick and  now is the time to target them.   Striped Bass fishing seems to be going through its summer doldrums but as the water temps cool they should become more active.  

Til next tide.
