Party Boat Tuna- Big Jamaica et al...

[njboarder]

Got back from Fri-Sat overnighter aboard Voyager.
Seemed like YFT bite is not too hot yet.
Was hopeful since Thurs-Friday trip produced 8-9 YFT, but unfortunately there was absolutely no action throughout the night, and only shot was in 5:30AM, when 3 hooked up at the same time and 2 were landed. So, the boat total was 2. One of the fish was definitely one of the bigger YFT's I've seen in Jersey, as it was estimated to be around 90lbs.
All three bites were on live squids at around 100-120ft deep, and they didn't touch sardines and butterfish.
Going back out next Friday and hope things improve by then.
