First boat load of albacore hit the docks in Oregon this weekend . Looks like water starting to creep up to the border , shouldn’t be all that long now

went on a tuna popping / jigging trip out of Long Island NY yesterday . Ran 70 nm offshore in a 31’ contender CC , fish were not on the surface so we would move around looking for birds or greasy slick spots on the surface ( fish oil from a recent tuna feed ) and blind cast poppers or jig . Was a slower start but ended up coming together for us when the fish started pushing on the surface , we would either see large v wakes , or big flashes sub surface . We finished with a limit of two bluefin ( 45 and 65 lbs ) , all on poppers , while also releasing two more same grade , and one single yellowfin . Fun fishing

Next shot at some blue water is tropic star lodge in Panama Aug 12, should come home just in time for some albacore !

All Rivers fished out of Westport, WA on July 4th. Go into them ~50 miles out.

Get ready up there!

Maybe this is me getting a little too excited, but sure looks like tuna could be within reach in the very near future!! Not a great shot, but looks like a pretty hard temp break off brooks! My fam and I will be in Winter Harbour from August 1 through 8th. Did our first tuna trip last year out of winter harbour and had an absolute blast and good success. Would love to coordinate and buddy boat with people on some tuna runs while we’re there if anyone is interested!!

I’ll be around 30th - 9th. I’ll have my gear with me and a capable crew. Dm me if you’re planning to head out.

Absolutely, will do. 28th-6th for us. Buddy boat would be great to have. Guess I’d better buck up for the Satfish app.

I did it..... so much better than Terrafin..... you will be impressed. I even emailed Terrafin before I did it to see if they had any improvements.... they responded but only said they show more data now..... SatFish is a vast improvement.

Commercial friend of mine is fishing just outside the nitnat canyon . Reporting small numbers daily ( 30 fish ) . In saying that he had a small bluefin and a yellowtail yesterday .

Can confirm. Here’s his pics from today. Looked at the latest SST shots. Looks like good water only 20 to 25 miles from the lighthouse.

Believe it was more like 40-45nm offshore
