Outer Banks Bluefin Tuna and Yellowtail 8-10 (video)

[Hardcor]

When we drove past the Tuna pens at four in the morning, there was all ready over a hundred boats there waiting for gray lite ! We traveled on south to the 238 were I had seen

some water that I liked on the satellite ! When I got rite in the middle of the 238 and the 295 I found a temp break from 66.2 to 67. It was just gray lite as I hit the temp break

and two of the trolling rigs go off ! Two 20 pound Bluefin Tuna come aboard but no bait ! I boxed the area and found Yellowtail on just about every kelp patty we came across.

The bait was really good and green. We caught all our Yellowtail fly lining Sardines. We would make long drifts off the patties hoping for a Bluefin, but all we got was Yellowtail !

We ran from one patty that had mostly 20 and 25 pound Yellowtails on it ! We end the day with 8 nice Yellowtail and 2 little Bluefin Tuna. We released 4 Yellowtail.

It's going to get better !

Nice report I love how you got your fish in quick, tossed bait, got the extra trolling in, setup your pole and gaffed his fish all in a matter of a minute or so!! That's how you fish!

Good job out there Corey!
Quick question, do you ever have the YT swallow your bait whole, then pull the hook with roe attached to it?
I did it twice, last time I went out, and I have never seen that before.

Nice ride for an overnighter. Liked the long rods too. A 3rd would have helped alot with all that goes into the plan. Do you get sea sick? Like how you got on your buddy for flooning lol.

Corey, your videos are beyond great viewing and your fishing skills are world class. Many if not most of us strive to be proficient in fishing and most of us only fish one type of water (fresh or saltwater) or a limited species of fish. For many years I was a Trout only fisherman and honed my skills in the Sierra’s on Trout streams and lakes. Only in the last two years did I try Bass (Green Carp) fishing and was hooked, no pun intended and the learning curve has been steep. While my boat is not practical for Striper fishing I had the good fortune to take a trip TO and it was a priceless experience and lesson. You have shown that with hard work one can master many fishing waters and many species both fresh and salt water.
To be a success in anything in life one must have passion and you have shown that passion and hard work in honing your fishing skills pays great dividends. I look forward to viewing your future posts and hope in the future to meet you in person and put a face with a name, thanks for sharing your adventures.

Thanks for sharing, great video, it make me want to head out and chasing after the tuna. BTW did those scopolamine patch work well? I heard the pill is better with less side effecst but they discontinue those.

[pitman]

Im so jealous. nice action keep up the great work out there!!!!...

[DockRat]

Great Vid Corey. Leaving those clickers on reminds me of the Tuna Wranglers show.
Those Striped Bass umbrella rigs work good on Tuna, Lol.

Man you brought a big smile when i checked this post out at work.one handed gaff was awesome

[PONTOON]

Corey, I saw your post this morning at work but couldn't watch the entire video so I had to wait to get home and take it all in. I talke to Trolly about it my entire drive from downtown L.A. to H.B. I just got done watching and it was an awesome peice of work. My hats off to the Reel Bros. teamwork!

Keep the video reports coming!

[Hardcor]

That's some awesome fishing there Corey. Just watching that video wore me out.

Thank you Ron ! You work harder at the Stripers then I do at the tuna's !


Nice vid corey how do you guys hook your bait? Nostril to nostril or mouth out through the nostril?

When we come to a Kelp patty or long drift we hook our Sardines or Mackeral in the Nostrils ! If I see the fish deeper on the meter, we butt hook them !

Butt hooking your bait sends them straight down ! Never hook your Sardines from the mouth ! They are filter feeders and need there mouth open to breath !

Thank you Perris_Holic

Robert ! There are times they eat abbsolutly everything you throw at them ! You hooked stomach contents and dragged it right out ! In all my years fishing I've seen some

weird stomach contents ! During an El Ninyo one year, a Yellowfin Tuna we I caught was stuffed with red crab and one red vine !

Thank You Corey

I love the ride, it hauls as-s on the way home ! I take it 150 miles one way ! It's a 30 foot Custom Boston Whaler Conquest with a tuna tower !

I think next season we are going to have a 35 foot Cabo !

Thank You Corey

I have been very selfish about my Passion of fishing and the outdoors ! I am a lucky man my brothers have joined me in our later years !

Thank you very much ! Follow your passion, life is too short ! I found that out the hard way !
