    up here in nj it is 100 to get to the stream.. the other side is over 200!!!!!!!!!!!!

    It is around 150 miles from Cape May to the Gulf Stream and much further from north and central Jersey. The Stream makes a hard right turn off of Virginia and goes way offshore of New Jersey.

    The Stream is never the same width. It can be 50 miles wide 1 day and then 80 miles wide the next day.

    so has anyone ever made the 200-275+ mile crossing off of nj or the lower states as we know of!?

    has there been any real success or is it basically fishing deep azz water with the same warm water eddies pushing off the outside as the inside of the stream!?

    well, It makes more sense out of cape may to run south to the stream, towards va/hatt....a few boats do it in the early white marlin bite to try to get the first one of the year. since it can be quite a run, they will overnight and fish the morning bite

    I have been reading this write up everytime i have a chance in the "facilities" and it has just got me snapped..

    there is a guy who started doing this in florida in 1987 by the last name dwyer.

    he said they see numerous 100-175lb tuna, marlin all around and mahi and wahoo.

    they work the edge and they claim the fish just like on the inside feed on the colder nutrient rich waters..

    it also talks all about how they chase the birds and that is their main fishery is the birds and huge weed lines that form around the edge.. it is anywhere from 60-80 miles and i think it says they leave from port saint lucie fl.. normally around 4am they leave and get back around midnight.

    they are doing it a lot lately and it seems to be a big thing.. just wonder if it would be worth a shot up here for a multi day trip sorta thing..

    it also talks about this being the only true yellowfin tuna fishery in the florida area...
