Golden Tile Fish Fishing Report - May 7, 2010

51 LB Golden Tile Fish!





Grouper 28 LB.
Lucanus Jig



Last Friday May 7th, 2010, Another good trip for Golden Tile Fish trip by Atlantic Star. The weather was very nice over 80 degrees temperature. 51 LB. beautiful golden tile fish caught by Kevin C. Feaster from P.A., won the pool. We caught about 60 Golden Tiles and about 120 nice Rose fishes.
Whole day, I tried jigging with Shimano Lucanus Jig. I think I was the first Golden Tile Fish catch by Lucanus Jig. I caught three Golden Tile fishes, 7 Blue fishes, and 10 geed sized Rose fishes all by Shimano Lucanus Jig.
A lot of people worry about using expensive jig (like Lucanus jig) that if they loose it by bed bottom? Over a year past, I used more than 20 full days using only Lucanus Jig, but I’ve never lost any by the bottom, because we use it different way.
If any one need more information use for Tile Fish and other kind fish for Lucanus Jig.

Tuna Fishing Report - March 9, 2010

By 11 a.m. we had 12 tunas on jig. Almost everybody was tired fighting big tuna. After 11:30, we moved to bottom fish spot and I caught one 45 lb. Red Drum by Lucanus jig from Shimano. The sea was so calm and warm. Oh, it was beautiful Spring day like every one's DREAM.

Tuna Fishing Report - March 1, 2010



On March 1 Monday, at about 4 am, we got to Hatteras Island, when winded so much like over 30 knots. But as soon as we were out in Ocean, the condition wasn’t that bad. There were some waves, but for the size of the boat it was okay

After we started jigging for about 15 minutes, Carlos FISHED ON! After 1 hour, we saw color. It looked like less than 200 LBS, but it was so strong. So many times we saw that, but it was not closer than 10 feet.

Around just before 9 A.M., Captain said a lot of tuna around here! After then we started casting jigs. After few seconds, three tunas were on! Every tuna ran to different direction. After about 15 minutes, first tuna was deck, and after few minutes, another tuna was on! Two fishes had to go since they didn't have any more line. Still we had two fishes on.

We were trying to tag, but everyone fight with tuna over one hour. We had to tight more drag and break line, so we can move to tile fish spot. 600 feet water with full moon tide was not easy to hold bottom. We caught 10 gray tile fish and one 170 lb. blue fin tuna.

We tried little different way for tuna jig. Before we used tuna jig with plain hook, but today we used Metallic Sardine and Stainless jig plus one piece of pink plastic octopus on the hook. You can see picture above.
