Going after YFT Wed. at Oregon Inlet. I'll be on 68 if anyone else is in the neighborhood. The plan is to run to the Point...I'll be in my 22ft CC Angler, the weather looks nice!
EG

If things go right, I will be there too.

I am leaving Richmond now we will be at the ramp at 0500. Give me a shout on 68/80 boat name Flatline.

Didn't see your post until too late. We fished the point and broke the first fish off(on new 50lb test!?) but ended up with 3 tuna and 4 dolphin. We found the dolphin around a weed line in 76F water...could have caught many but we wanted more tuna. How did you do?

I didn't make it. Some problems developed at work and I had to cancel. Maybe next time.

We put lines in around the 550 line and worked the area for a while with nothing. Moved a little further south where a few charters were picking up some fish still nothing for us. Worked the area for a few hours had line go tight fish on about 5 minutes later fish off. Noticed a few charters had picked up and ran up north around the point so we followed. Lines in 5 minutes fish on 2 minutes fish off. finally pick up a 35 pounder lots of life in the area thing look good. Had about 4 other knock downs but that was it for us. Looks like you had a much better day than we had. Oh well it was a great day on the water. Ended the day with towing a buddy that had lost the lower unit 35 miles from the inlet. We towed him 13 miles until he meet up with sea tow. Made it through the inlet in the dark and to the ramp at 6:15. That wasnt you at the ramp with the trailer problem was it?

Any day fishing is better than a day working. We really hung around the point...found a finger canyon, I guess, that jumped up to 300ft from 600ft. You could see a good rip/upwelling. We got most activity there. Good luck on Jr. Islander, white and white/red, with ballyhoo. Dolphin hit yellow/green lure with ballyhoo. No that wasn't us with trailer trouble. We left fish. center around 4:00pm. Heard someone talking about breaking a shaft on a 24ft Albemarle and needing a tow. Was this your buddy? Glad everyone made it in OK.
