    Cape Cod Bluefin Popping 7/14

    We shoved off from the dock at about 5 AM ready to put a hurtin' on the tuna. When we got the the area we spotted a flock of birds working right on the surface and Igor and Milton fired a cast while Arkady cast off the other side of the boat. In a matter of seconds i hear a grunt from Arkady and turn around to see a huge boil and line screaming off his reel at an alarming rate. Fish on!!! Igor, Milton, and Arkady tag teamed the fish and in about 20 minutes our fish got the poon and a nice fat 65 1/2" fish hit the deck. It was only 6:45 and we had our first fish in the boat. Thats the way I like to start the day! After that we searched and searched and searched and found nothing but a lots of bait and birds and a few monster stripers. On the way home we came across tons of fish cruising on the surface but no one was hungry for a mid day snack so we called it a day and had a beautiful 33 knot cruise home. Congrats to Milton, Igor, and Arkady on an awesome fish.

    Actually i think it was a very near miss thankfully. Unfortunately the fish didn't much toro at all so that part of the wasnt really any good anyways. That was my thought at first too though.

    The fish was caught on a zenaq tuna casting rod not sure of the model number though and a stella 18k. I have ocean revolution rods on the boat which are excellent and are designed specifically for tuna casting. Carpenter, smith and hots also make similar rods. For reels, ideally you want a stella 18k but the saragosas work well too as long as you put carbontex drag washers in them.
