It was a gorgeous Spring day with little to no wind. A few of the Offshore boats made it out to the blue water where they had some slow fishing but still managed to catch a couple of Blackfin Tuna and a few Dolphin along with a Wahoo, Albacore and some Triggerfish. Tuna Duck had a Blue Marlin on but it pulled the hook. The Inshore boats had good fishing on the inside catching big Bluefish and Red Drum.
We may be able to get a week in without the weather alerts going off and the wind being just a warm breeze.

This morning continued to be very windy which means the Offshore boats stayed tied up again. A couple of the Inshore boats got onto the big Bluefish.
Hopefully, the wind will slack off tomorrow and the big boats will be able to venture out to the blue water.
