A fishing bud of mine and I have been studying the eddy's down south (80 mi.) and he (because it is his boat !) thinks it is time.
Light winds right now and relatively come seas. I can't go because of work (*&%$#!!!!) but on or around the 4th hopefully it will set up right. He is absolutely focused on it !
Down there is Yellowfin, Long fin, Marlin (maybe), Wahoo, Mahi (soon). The route is out of Nantucket Harbor, head West to Madaket, throught the cut and South for 70-80 miles.
Known as "The Canyons".
The best kind of boat cab overnight. You leave at early 1:00-2:00am and fish the am bite, work the breaks all day, fish the evening bite. Have a cook-up
, etc. Nap
, fish the am bite and head on home.
It is incredible when it successful. More important is a smooth sea or long swell as it's sometimes called. I have been out when the forecast is 5-10 and it blows 20-30 and man it is brutal.
You are completely exhausted and bouncing off walls for a day or so after.
But there are those fish .................
