Seas were a little choppy on the way out to the Tilefishing grounds. We started fishing at approx. 6:30 AM and the waves died down. The weather for the remainder of the trip yielded minimal wave height, making for excellent conditions to catch giant Goldens.
We started fishing in deep water ranging from 600 to 1,100 feet in order to target giants.
Gennaro Destefano from Queens, NY hooked up a nice 38 lb Golden Tile early in the day. It was the first fish caught on the boat and he would later win the 1st place pool. Congratulations! Nice fish. A little later,
Joe caught a 2nd place pool winning Golden Tile weighing in at approx. 30 lbs. This was a nice fish as well.
The bite was steady for the remainder of the trip with more nice sized Goldens up to 25 lbs. Later in the day after 12:00 noon, we moved to shallower water to get some Blueline Tiles.
Eder Hernandez from Queens, NY caught a 3rd place pool winning Blueline during this time.
Overall, the fishing was excellent with a steady bite from giant Goldens and good sized Bluelines. The weather was great as well with flat, calm waters. Thanks for checking in and happy fishing! Now, on to the photos...
