24/10-30/10 at Cape Cod with Capt.Dom and Josh from Outermostangling.
We were a group of 7 scandinavians that came over on a testtrip for a travel agency called Getawaytours. First of all I want to thank Dom and Josh for taking such good care of us. Just not the fishing but everything that makes a good trip also on land.
First day we didnt caught any tuna but we allready then saw the possibillites in this area. We saw a lot of huge tuna crashing around the boat. We had some followers but they werent really interested. We caught some bluefish that would have been great fun on light tackle. And we saw humpbackwhales.

Second day were pretty much like the first one and we had a pause when the humpbacks put up a little show for us.

But after the whale show Per get thight with a good size tuna on Dom.s boat.
After his worst fight ever he manage to get a very nice 71" BFT to the boat.
He made the day for all of us. The tuna fell for a Dorado slider. Rod werew a Shimano Caranx Caibutsu deep monster and Stella 18000 SW.

Third day doesnt look good on the forecast so we cancel and have a "tourist" day in Plymouth. Good temps and a very nice town with alot of good food saves the day.
Fourth day is a planned day of. So Dom. takes us to Green Harbor bait & tackle and Basspro for some shopping.
Fifth day we get out again and I have one of my best days ever.
We hook up 7 tunas and get four of them. Gabriel gets the biggest on the trip a very nice 72,5" fish that he used 35-40min to get to the boat.
This one ate a RonZ. Rod were a Bar-Bar Seeker Hercules 60H and a Dogfight.

I get one 68" fish and two att around 55". I also fight a fish that Josh hooked for a while when he drives the boat. All were hooked on RonZ. Rod were JM 400g with Stella 20000 SW.
The bite were crasy for a while we had double hook ups twice this day.
The other boat also have some contacts but the hook came loose on them.

Sixth day both boats get thight several times but its only Patrick that gets his fish to the boat a nice 55" fish that I dont have any pic of. It took a RonZ
and rod were a Shimano jigwrex 400g and Stella 10000 F.
Kim get tight with a big one that almost spool his 10000 SW and finally he breaks the rod after 20-25min battle. The conditions were really tuff to day.

I have a dual boat trip with Capt. Dom for 7 days -- looks like we will only get 3 with the weather. First off, this is topwater-only; the group does not jig, and this makes for a bit of a challenge. The last two trips (Wednesday and Thursday) the fish we've been seeing are a mixed bag with a wide range of sizes from peanuts, and I mean peanuts. I saw fish that were only 10-15 pounds at best and in the same area we saw 65 to 68 inch fish launch right out of the water. Both boats had their shots with boils and some run-offs. Second day my lady and guys manage to come tight on a nice fish, getting it to the boat in record time. I hope we can get them back OTW before they depart for the long journey home. All the rods and lures were prototype stuff, and I hope Kil can fill us in on the anglers names and gear used. The lures are very nice and are all hand-made. It would be nice to get them hooked into a 200 pound class fish while they are here. Lets hope the weather will cooperate. Capt Josh Zacharias Outermostangling Charters www.outermostangling.com | |
Had a great time today with Ken, Peter, and Tetsu. Big schools of fish chasing butterfish the size of your pinky nail, proved to be very frustrating. We did get some boils on plugs but no joy. Moved to the Cod grounds fourth drop and I come tight to a bluefin. The guys fought him for an hour got him to the boat a couple of times but he won the battle for his freedom 65 inch that was fun on light tackle. Moved to another locale and had fish crashing halfbeaks set up and bam the capt comes tight to a real nice fish. after an hour of back and forth we get him boatside only to have the leader break, oh well thats fishing. I will post pics later. Just wanted to thank Capt Jeff Smith for giving the heads up on the second fish and also to Capt Dom for all of his great work out there its always a pleasure to see the Speedy and Dusky on the horizon. The fall run is starting to shape up nicely. Give me a call if you want to get out there.

Tuff day today but managed to pull a nice 65 incher on rubber. Keith and Tom really whipped this fish getting him to the boat in 20 minutes. This fish was in top shape, we swam him and released. Went down south and marked a ton of fish had one more grab with a run off. That was it, caught a few bass and headed to the barn. Hauled my pots and slammed the lobster 23 keepers and a bunch of shorts. Nice day OTW. I will post pics when I get them.
I would like to thank Capt Dom for sending me this trip. He is a top notch captain. If you are looking to catch a big bluefin on light tackle or jig he is the man.

Had Kil and the guys up from N.J. today. It started a little slow with a couple of small bunches crashing but could not get close. Moved to another locale and found some life. Small bunches crashing the surface but once again up and down. The scope was showing plenty of bait so we started vertical jigging — fifth drop and I come tight to a nice fish. After 45 minutes we leader and long release a nice healthy 68 inch fish to a pulled hook boat side. We stick with it a little longer and I have a grab, but no love. We pick up again and look for some topwater stuff. We did find some real slobs feeding on mackerel and Kil got hammered on the RonZ but the fish did not get the hook. I think we all had good shots at this bunch but they were gone with the wind. Head to the Race and find a couple of sporadic bunches, just could not get the right shot at them. Nice day at the office..
I have some openings -- please give me a call if you are interested.

Today Matt, Eric and John had some great bluefin action. Lots of shots and the fish were very eager to hit we had many boils on plugs. John got tight on a nice fish 45 minutes and 65 inch fish released. We had lots of brief hookups but no love. Moved to another spot and the fish were very receptive to the plugs Eric hooked a nice 53 slot fish. He got this fish to the boat in under 2 minutes and we put him in the box. I have never seen a bluefin come in this quick my hats off to Eric for a job well done. The fish were very happy to eat with all guys having boil after boil on everything we threw at them. All in all a great day OTW. I will post some pics soon..

Guys the fishing is still really good. I have been seeing lots of fish on top. The weather has been a little frustrating. Did start to mark stuff down so the vertical bite should start to happen as well. I had Bret B and friends last week and I am sure he can tell us the amount of fish around is still strong. Also Sami G came up for a day and I put them on some great feeds although the fish were moving fast we had some nice shots at them.. Getting on the down side of the moon will be key to get the fish back into a comfortable routine.
I have some dates open and the fishing will not disappoint, give me a call..
