Reef Limit with Tuna and Flounder

Our goal was yellow fin tuna but it came with a cost. Thick fog, boat traffic, Monster Blue marlin right off the bat that spolled us and took my of my favorite #sterlingtackle blue and white chains. Then to double up with a Jumbo Blue fin that spolled our smaller 30w reel.  One fish that came unbuttoned.  We managed to pull through and went 2 for 6 with 2 good size yellow fin 50-60lb range. This was first time tuna fishing with this crew so they got to see it all.  That’s what fishing is all about, the heart ache and the thrills. They went home with plenty of meat and some good stories they won’t forget. #phillyhooker
