NJ Fishing Report 2023

Labor Day- Went looking for yellowfins out near Texas Tower. Nothing.

Passing through Glory pots on the way out at first light. I had to try one pot... got this bull & cow while holding two rods as we passed the first pot!
Ended up becoming a canyon Mahi/Tilefish trip...as many of our tuna dreams become....

Got out Tuesday to the Triple Wrecks area. The fleet was 10 miles past the Haskell. We got there late 8 am. Chunked one nice yellowfin quick and then we sucked the rest of the day. Many boats had 3,5,10....

The mahi pots in the Chicken were barren. The Glory pots were not very good but we did get a few small ones and one nice cow.

Fantastic weather. Long 13 sec swell. Thats all going to crap the rest of the week.

That Tuna sure looks good. I just had a dinner of Columbia River Salmon from the grille, but my mouth’s watering thinking of a nice Tuna steak, seared on the outside and rare in the middle.

How do you do your Tuna?

Skunk, way to go, you say it sucked the rest of the day after you


caught Charlie, well a few Mahi made your day so much better.


You got their late, what's that saying, the early fisherman (bird) catch the fish (worm).

Enjoy
