I Did another away trip on Kevin Bashams 48' Viking the Barbra ANN. yesterday. We headed to the hudson in flat calm seas. We set out 10 rods and found a nice temp break from 76-79 degrees. Plenty of life with dolphins and pilot whales all around us. within an hour we had a 3 banger on. all three yellowfins came tight and Mike,Kevin and kevin successfully brought in the 3 smallish 40 pound yellows. Then as we start putting out the lines again another ballyhoo gets nailed this time it was a 50lb. class yellow successfully landed by Kevin. We marked the spots and zigzaged all around the area but no more action. We trolled all over the hudson canyon with plenty of life in the water but slow action! all the other boats were complaining of no action at all! Slow day but great weather! The 2 never seem to mix together! (great weather and good fishing). Hopefully the action will pick up soon!
P.S. We have openings this month and next for inshore and offshore trips!

Tight lines!
