Had Jason Todd JB Pat and Kim for a tuna sniff mission. Headed to Toms for our 1st overnighter of the year. Worked it hard but couldn't find a break. Afternoon troll produced a donut. Set up for the night and it looked good - bait life etc. Only one tuna bite which came up tail wrapped and was lost at the boat. A few mahi and sharks kept us awake all night. In the morning got up on the troll and headed south to Carteret - nothing again!!!arrg. had to change mindset and look for some bluefin. Headed to the southern bluefin grounds and lines in - fish on fish fish off after it smoked 400 yards of line and my braid backing connection hung up in the guide. swung around and hooked up again. After a great battle Jason landed a 51 incher. went looking for our under and found them on Topwater action!! Caught and released a bunch. What a daysaver!! Overall great trip and lots o laughs!!!
