We went offshore yesterday and the tuna bite was slow. The tuna are still there and were active on the surface much of the day. Boats using green sticks had better catches. We only caught one yellowfin tuna and a couple of gaffer dolphin. We had some other encounters including a lit-up white marlin that charged around but never bit anything.
Danny Forehand was out there in his boat with much the same day. He gave up on the slow tuna bit after catching one and a couple of dolphin. They went bottom fishing catching a couple of snowy grouper, sea bass, and blueline tilefish up to 12 pounds.
Mark Evans and Cameron Wainright chummed inside the bay on the Lauren B with Randy Blanchard. They caught a couple of nice cobia.
