I miss the Mud Hole and the BFT! Steve if I get up there on vacation you have a passenger booked on Saucy. For now I am still planning for my first YFT run in my small boat.....

179, When do plan on going for YFT? I'd love to tag along in my boat. Where do you plan to launch out of?

Wow, very interesting. I hear the giant bluefin bite in Feb/Mar is great down there and tyou only have to go 5 to 8 miles out.
How's it been so far 179? Did you move down for the job or the fishing or becuase you were sick of us?
Any NC tuna stories yet?

Fish On- well I moved down here for a couple reasons financial was one of them. Thus far I have mixed opinions on living and fishing here. When I first arrived in Feb the Stiper fishing was incredible this lasted until early March. Since then it has been pretty slow for inshore fishing. There are small Blues around, some very large Cobia which have lock jaw at the moment, and I hear Spanish Macks are out there. What I have quickly learned is that a 21' boat is a great option for New England waters but really has it's limitations here. Oregon Inlet is a nasty place. To fish this area safely I think a 25' or larger is the best option.
The offshore action here is incredible YFT, Sails, Marlin ( a 900lb Blue plus was brought into my marina last week caught 30 miles offshore), Dolphin are all out there now but it's a 25-mile run out and I haven't had a day off where the weather has allowed a run yet. The Giant Bluefin will be 8-10 miles off the beach but I did not get a chance to try for them this past season.

Well guys it looks like your first shot at tuna is probably this weekend out around the acid barge. I doubt I'll be fishing at all this weekend, we have guests coming. Good luck and let us know how you do.
