After a few hard days of fishing in the southern porpoise school, we were given some inside scoop about the northern pile holding a lot of fish. Though we had the next day off from charter fishing, myself, Tracy my mate and a good friend and deck hand on the Huntress Mitch, loaded up the Northern Lights for commercial day of tuna fishing. We headed north early in the morning in search of the North porpoise school. On the way up to the zone where the school had been hanging out we came across two striped marlin tailing along the surface. We made a few passes around the stripes but they wanted nothing to do with our lures.

Fishing has slowed quite a bit since the mad rush of blues and stripes we had in February. We headed out with a good return client of our john doe on a full day of fishing. We trolled most of the day in a good area that had been producing for us, but we couldn’t seem to find any fish in the area. Around 2:30 in the afternoon I made a last tack through the area and a blue exploded on the short rigger PoluKai tube. The bite seemed as if everything went normal but the fish started jumping before she had taken the line out of the rigger. The line came tight and we were off to the races.
