Fished Butterfish Hole and Block Channel Friday. Trolled for tuna with no luck. Excellent temp. breaks but no signs of Tuna. Tried casting small bucktails at a few lobster pots for Mahi. Got a couple small ones, 2 to 4 lbs. Tried clams for cod in Block Channel on the way back and a buddy of mine hooked into a nice 46" 22 lb Mahi Mahi realing his clam to the surface at around 30 feet. After we had him in the boat we got another on a mackerel chunk, about 3 feet maybe 10 to 12 lbs.
Got 1 Fluke Saturday, about 20", and several good sized black sea bass, almost just as long. Lots of Black Sea bass around Block Island right now. Some dogs, but not too bad. My other buddy got a spine in the forearm while removing a hook. Went in deep and hurt like heck. Tried stripers later but got cut short because of the thunder storms.
Sorry, pics are not digital. I'll see if I can get em scanned.
All in all a prettyu good weekend.
