Location: Bass River in Cape Cod, MA
We left the dock at 5 AM, and we started fishing at approx.
7:30 AM. The first area was filled with large whales, meaning that bait was
plentiful. We set up our outriggers and began trolling. Approximately 2 hours
into trolling, we hooked on to a fish which we fought for about 20 mins. It
turned out to be a small 55 pounder. We spent some more time trolling, and I
was able to hook up another bluefin using a metallic sardine. It was larger
than the first one and measured about 62 inches. The tuna bite stopped after
the second fish but we still saw a ton of tuna on the fishfinder. Overall, we
had a great time and everyone aboard would gladly do it all again.
