Here is a video of a Bluefin Tuna being unloaded which was caught onboard High Hook this Fall in Massachusetts bay. I was fishing live whiting in a chum line for only about 30 minutes before I hooked up. I was fishing alone that day and had to call someone over to jump on the boat once i realized the size of it.

We had the kite bait in the water for maybe 10 minutes before hooking into the giant last year which both of them fought on stand up gear. This year, after catching a few blue sharks, we had a Tuna take the balloon bait around noon time. It took about 30 minutes for Luke and Ryan Stevens to reel it in. The fish was a little under 300lbs. One for the truck.

All together we caught around 6 fish and four of them were around 37-38 inchers. Below are some pictures of the fish we caught.

We were getting some good bites in the morning but with all the boat traffic a Sunday brings, the fishing died down around 9. Below is a picture of them with a few nice keepers they had caught.

We had hooked the fish on a pogie about 10 feet from the boat on a free swimmer. The bite was down near the golf ball behind P-Town. The fish took around 40 minutes to pull up.

The mackerel fishing was real slow. The only real way to get them was to spot them on the surface and drive right over them and get the lines full. We did that for about 30 minutes until we had the live well full. The Striped Bass bite was a little slow but we still managed around 10 keepers or so. I don’t plan on the Mackerel being here much longer as we might have to start chunk fishing or using live pogies. Posted in: Boat Log | No Comments » On Thursday we landed a nice 300 pound Bluefin which we caught on a live Mackerel. We hooked the fish in the afternoon between the Southwest corner and Peaked Hill sand bar in about 180 feet of water.
