Fishing Reports

We will be back in the office on Monday February 3, we hope everyone has had a nice start to 2025. We are looking forward to a great year of fishing and 2025 has gotten off to a banner start. The last few days have been phenomenal Bluefin Tuna fishing. Just a couple boats were out fishing for them and they had a great time. Boats released 25-30 fish each day, most in the 70" class range.
