The offshore fishing has been outstanding. Mainly tuna fishing. On Friday we had the guys from Premier concrete services out of Baton Rouge. They wanted to target yellowfin tuna and that is exactly what they got. The first stop actually produced nothing at all but we didn't stay very long. Second stop you could see the fish busting from almost a mile a way. That is always a good sign. First line out 65lber., got him in the boat quick. Second line 122lber. It took about an hour and 15 minutes but we got him in the boat. After that 6 more yellowfin 2 30 lbers and the rest 40-60lbs, and a couple of dolphin. We only lost one at the boat throughout the day and we headed in with plenty of meat. The tuna fishing can't be beat right now, and they are everywhere. Bull Dolphin and Wahoo are still showing up but there has not been a very good rip to speak of. Snapper are still at almost every stop but nothing real big. Most are 16-20 inchers. Cobia are starting to show up more and more as well. Looks like the weather will get a little rainy the next few days but we need it. We have open days next week and it should be very good.
