Mon Sept 2 to Thurs Sept 5 – 3 Day TNT Ultra LTD
Captain JR reports a very successful 3 day TNT trip on the Viking Star. We got a late start on day one with some very inconvenient NE breeze keeping us concentrated on the tunas for most of the day. But we made the best of it and boated some nice yellow fin tuna. We squeezed in some hot and heavy golden tile fishing to end the day on a very high note.
The remainder of the trip the weather cooperated and so did the tile fish. Excellent fishing with everyone having a great catch of very healthy Viking tile fish and a very nice barrel fish. We also trolled up some more yellow fin tuna to add to the box along with boating a small sword, breaking a few off, and losing one on the gaff, which was tough. But we had an excellent trip with a great group of happy anglers!!!!
The Tile fish pool winner went to Brian Martin from Lynbrook, NY with a 32 lb Golden Tile fish. The edible pool winner went to Isaac Hartman with a beautiful White Marlin. The Tuna pool winner went to George Leasakis with a 60 lb Yellow Fin.
