Capt. Phil and mates Joe T and Justin Nighan took the Dave Miguel charter from Lipinshi Landscaping out to the Bacardi for a late morning bite and got 10 bluefin up to 120 pounds on a bite that started at 11am and ended at 1pm. They moved off to the east elbow of the Hudson and started chunking at 3pm. By 4pm they had 3 longfin on all the time and by 7 pm were releasing longfin. The yellowfin showed next and they were releasing those by 8pm. In between they caught and released 2 more bluefin both over 100 and one close to 130. The last bite of the night occured at 9pm - they fought it for 2 hours on a Penn International 30W with 60 pound flouro and eventually harpooned a 180 pound big-eye. They left to come home a 11pm.
