Yellow Fin Tuna Fishing Report

fishin4life — Tue, 24 Apr 2012 21:32:25 +0000

I've had a great couple of days last week. We started off Thursday morning pretty early and headed out in search for some yellow fin tuna; had a hard time finding bait on the way out. An hour and half later we arrived at our destination and started chumming; got a few fish up-landed 1 and lost 1.

The next drift the sharks started showing up. We went to start our thrid drift and an old friend Capt. Billy Wells showed up and offered me some incredible live bait. I can't thank him enough-he really saved my day. We put out the live bait and it was "fish on" one after another. We boated 10 more yellow fin and decided to start fishing for some amberjack. We caught a few nice ones on live bait and a few on jigs. We started making our way back to Grand Isle and ran across some black fin jumping. We boated 2 black fin and then headed back to the dock. We had a great trip and I was looking forward to my next trip with Warren the next day. We all took off early that morning and managed to put some live bait in the live well. We spent a lot of time catching bait then we headed out back offshore. When we got out there we went 3 for 5 for yellow fin and then it was back to more sharks. We grabbed some bait again from Capt. Billy Wells and spent the day catching sharks. We headed to go try for some amberjacks and caught more sharks and few jack crevalle. We managed to catch a few amberjack also. We decided to head for some mangrove snapper but the water ended up being really dirty and it had a lot of current all around the river. We decided to call it a day and talked with Warren on the run in, about our upcoming snapper trip for June. The fishing has been hot and we are not having to run very far out to catch some days.

Give us a call for the trip of a lifetime!

We Leave of Bridgeside Marina in Grand Isle, La. Grand Isle has a lot to offer- beaches, restaurants, bars, and lots of wonderful Deep sea fishing in Louisiana.

The fishing has been great the last few weeks. I just got finished breaking in a brand new set of yamaha 300 four strokes, the twin vee tops out at over 50 mph now. The yellowfin tuna are showing up in large numbers. We're catching plenty of tuna when the weather lets us get out.. The wahoo fishing has been hit or miss, some days we are doing well with lots of big fish other days the wahoo are nowhere to be found.

The amberjack fishing has been good when you can find live bait. I stopped on the way in earlier this week and caught a bunch of mangrove snapper. It shouldn't be long before the cobia show up and with grouper season back open I can't wait to fish some of my favorite spots. This should be a great year to go on a charter fishing trip. The Gulf of Mexico did not get much fishing pressure last year and the big fish are everywhere. I still have several days available in April and May, but the summer calendar is filling up fast, so book your trip now and don't miss out on a fishing trip of a lifetime .

Grand Isle Fishing Report - July 09

Another great weekend of GREEN WATER fishing. We headed out Friday night on an over fishing trip in hope of finding blue water. We went 120 miles out and still no blue water. I did talk to one of the supply boats heading in from way offshore and he told me it was close and pushing north.Hopefully things will be back to normal soon and the summertime fishing along the rips will be in close.

We arrived at the platform around 7:00p.m. I was still letting the first bait out and fish on. We put yellowfin tuna in the box until midnight one after another. We ended up with 13 yellowfin several blacfin and a limit of 10lb Red Snapper we picked up on the way out.

Grand Isle Charter fishing has been incredible this year. We have been catching one or two yellowfin tuna over 100lbs on almost every over night trip. Our group for the tarpon rodeo July 22nd through the 26th could not find a place to stay so the twin vee is open. We have had at least 1 fish place in the top 3 every year for the past eleven years.

We will be fishing out of bridge side marina in grand isle Louisiana. Don't miss out on a trip of a lifetime. The pictures are from an overnight trip this past weekend.

Grand Isle Fishing Report - Red Snapper, Tuna

HTML clipboardThe last few weeks of fishing has been great. We have been running tuna trips and it has been very rewarding. The tuna fishing is red hot right now. We had fish jumping out the water for hours on our last trip. We have caught double digits on yellow fin tuna every trip we had for the last 3 weeks.

June 2009 - Grand Isle Louisiana

The yellow fin tuna have been ranging from 60lbs. to 120lbs. lately. We haven't done much trolling lately, but when the rip has been formed up we have had good catches on dolphin and wahoo. I have seen several marlin lately and managed to catch a nice 250lb Marlin during a tournament a few weeks ago.

Red Snapper - Yellow Fin Tuna -

The red snapper fishing has been quick and easy with fish ranging in the 10 to 15lbs. range. The cobia are still here and the mangrove snapper fishing has heated up lately.

I just had a last minute cancellation for July 4th and July 5th. This would be a great time to book an over night trip. Our calendar is filling up fast, give us a call for a trip of the life time.

Red Snapper - Yellow Fin Tuna Fishing Report

admin — Fri, 12 Jun 2009 19:14:24 +0000

The last few weeks have been non stop action on the water. We went on several overnighters and several day trips. The overnight trips have been producing 10 plus yellowfin tuna and several wahoo and dolphin. There is a nice rip starting to form up and the action is hot if you find the right area. We are still seeing plenty of cobia around and the amberjack have been easy picking. We have caught some of the best red snapper ever in the last week, one weighing almost 40lbs. We are about to head out on another overnight trip and I will post another report when I return.

Book your trip of a lifetime now before the calendar fills up!
