What a beautiful day for the third week of January! Didn't catch any fish but I did enjoy a few hours on the water. I fished the tide change at flood tide which often provides a good Speck bite but not today.

On another note, the Bluefin Tuna bite in Southern NC has been awesome this past week or so. I heard reports of 5 being caught yesterday. I haven't heard a number for today but a buddy of mine did report a catch of a 500+ pound fish off of The Horseshoe today! He fought the fish for over 5 hours and then once he got it to the boat, it took them an hour to get the 90" fish into the boat.

Tight lines to ya!
