On our way home after a morning of explosive action on 50 to 80 pound tuna. In the corner, just drop in a bait and you're on !!!!! Great finish and heading home with good weather.

June 6, 2023

Wahoo bit with a vengeance today. Very good grade today. Premium fishing with multiple bingo's

 

June 5, 2023

Less sign of bigger tuna today and good action on smaller grade fish 40 to 60 pounders with a couple hundred plus pounders in the mix . Wahoo produced again today with really nice fish. We will se how it goes tomorrow. Allan picked off a kite fish that weighed in at 150 pounds for the daily stand out fish.
 

June 3, 2023

Phil won the daily Accurate jack pot with a 193 and that was the top fish for the day. Another round of stops on good grade wahoo that finished off the day

Leo with a nice fish today. Accurate pro staff showing off his 228 flyline sardine fish on 100 pound Izorline. A few other chances today with some tough luck that cost us . We will try again tomorrow,

 

June 1, 2023

Various stops on decent tuna through out the day. The highlight was the wahoo action. Better conditions today but still hard to drag the fish in. Joe had the standout for the day right at 200 pounds.

 

May 31, 2023

Tough day today aside from Gary and his 261 . What a lucky break he got . A few other decent fish but tough to get to the boat. We will see tomorrow!

Very nice end to a great trip.

Mar. 12, 2023

Good start this morning with steady action on tuna and a couple wahoo mixed in. Slow now but fish are all around us. Hopefully we get any hot afternoon shot like yesterday

Mar. 11, 2023

Yesterday was a tough day for us as far as tuna fishing goes. Very good sign of fish around but very hard to get a bite. Luckily the wahoo fishing kept us busy most of the day. This morning we were able to get established early and have been able to pick on nice grade fish. Steve caught this 220 on the kite just a little while ago. All the other fish are that 100 to 150lb fish. Hopefully we keep it going.

 

Mar. 9, 2023

Arrive at the bank a few days ago and we’re welcomed by good fishing on wahoo and ok tuna fishing. Everyday seems to be a little different with switching current and trying to find a place to fish where the sharks are manageable. Today we got settled in mid morning and been able to keep a fish or 2 hooked. Darwin landed his new personal best at 330lbs. We've had a few other chances and see plenty of this larger fish over 200lbs there just hard to hook and harder to land.

 

Mar. 3, 2023

We departed on are 702 Tuna 13/16 day fishing couple days ago. Charter master Steve brought some awesome giveaways including some custom wrapped rods and reels. Everybody has been eager to fish and trying to stay busy by rigging up all the gear. Some new folks with us this trip accompanied by long time regulars. 2 more wake ups and we will be fishing.

First day of fishing for the annual Accurate 12 day fly home trip. Started outside and found disappointing conditions that brought no wahoo. We made the best of it on small tuna and now headed inside. We have a lot of fishing to do and hoping to have a good start tomorrow. Good weather and a great group with quite a few new faces onboard. Welcome aboard!!!!

Wrapping up our 9 day nomad trip. We ended up getting into some wahoo the last couple days. Fun fishing and then we topped it off with some more tuna and yellowtail. Now we are headed up for home enjoying the ride. Thank again to Nomad and the Hightower’s for all the giveaways and demos. Looking forward to next year.

Nov. 6, 2022

We had a tough start to our Nomad 9 day trip due to the northwest storm that just came through. Had to spend some time traveling down and sitting on the anchor to wait it out. Fortunately we were able to keep busy with yellowtail as well as a few pargo tuna and dolphin fish in the mix. Today was nice weather and we were welcomed excellent fishing on nice grade tuna. Wahoo are still MIA but hopefully the next few days with the weather coming down they will make they’re way back into the shallows.
