I know Giorgio is waiting on updates so...
We got out fluking at the Axel Carlson reef a couple times over the 4th weekend. Got three keepers one day and 4 keepers another. Nothing worth taking a picture but they were delicious. The bluefin and yellowfin bite has finally started at the midrange grounds. Just need some flat weather. Going Friday.

Well, conditions were certainly not what was forecast but it was fishable.
Atlantic Princess area had lots of whales, dolphins and bait...and bluefish. Nobody Caught Tuna. Chicken canyon pots no life. GH pots no life. Guys at Bacardi/TexasTower did the same. Finished the day on a wreck in 110ft getting our 6 black seabass and a couple dozen ling. Lost a 3 pound fluke at the gunnel.

At least you are out there trying.
It seems you are the only out there, even my friends are just sitting around. Gas prices or there aren't any fish??

There are bluefin and yellowfin tuna showing up in the area of the Mud Hole called "Little Italy" or Humpty Dumpty. This is 16 miles east of Manasquan Inlet and easily in range for V20s.
There are 90 ft humps surrounded by 120+.. There are very big schools of cow-nosed rays and the tuna have been caught throwing poppers on top of them or jigging below them. It has been very random but these are nice fish 30# to 70#s We are currently still in the tuna skunk phase of the season but we have watched other boats score ![]() We have been catching a few 3-5 pound mahi on the mudhole lobster pots The water temp yesterday at the pots was 78 degrees
