Fishing Reports!!!!

Kianah's Sportfishing Cancun

Hi everyone,

After speaking with William of H4L jigs we decided to get some of their jigs for the boats in Cancun.

The unique shapes and the variety of colours have made a big difference on the outcome of the fishing days when BOTTOM fishing is requested.

As an example a trip that we had with a customer from Brazil, a hard core jigger, the Grand Slam started the day based on an 8 hr charter and ran to sailfish grounds. Within the first hour they had a double header of sailfish and a single. The 3 fish were released and moved to do some jigging.

Within 20 minutes they where jigging

As they arrived on the spots they had singles, doubles and triple headers and they fought 18 amber jack’s and cut the trip short as the customer ran out of air. LOL

We specialize during the winter months to target sailfish and since we are in prime season for amber jack's, jigs do make a difference

cheers from Cancun.

GOM Tuna Trip - Nov 30

Things started out kind of slow... and then got slower. Weren't marking anything at the first stop and after an hour and no hits/marks, moved to another rig. Started marking some fish and we get a bft and then Luke jigs up a 70# yft - got her on a 300g H4L Pink Goober

Incredible NJ YFT/Bigeye Jiggin and Poppin! 9/3/11

Andrew, Justin, Mark and I enjoyed a remarkable trip to our local NJ canyons last night. While the recent reports were mediocre at best I just had that gut feeling that something would happen for us if we just gave it a shot. We got a little bit of a late start and arrived at our destination in the dark, with only one other boat anywhere close to us. We found the water we were looking for and got ourselves situated around 11pm. Around 2am the action began when Justin came tight on the first fish of the night, a 50LB class YFT. A quick glance at the sonar and I see the tuna were now stacked up from 60-120' down! I dropped my H4L Mungus down to 100' and after a few handles turns I was tight to a yellowfin and this just set the stage for the rest of the trip! From then on it was a steady pull of YFT in the 30-60LB class until a large school of 70-100+ pound bigeyes came right under the boat into the chunks and pushed out the yellowfins! By now dawn was starting to get near and we could see the bigeyes gobbling up our chunks in the lights no more than 20 feet below the boat! We quickly put our jigs right in front of their faces and we could actually see them attack our jigs while we had no more than just the 25' wind-on leader off our reel. Unbelievable!

Final tally nobody really knows as there was way too much adrenaline pumping choas for hours on end to actually be counting that kind of stuff! We estimated we probably caught a combined total of about 40 yellowfin and bigeyes from 30-100 pounds between the four of us plus countless other hits/strikes/boils/etc. We were back at the dock by 11 am, exhausted. I've been on some good canyon trips in the past but never has it been so much fun being able to now catch all these fish on jigging and popping gear the whole time. Another great trip for the memory books!

Phyllis Ann 8/5 Bluefin.. Bloody Decks

We went 6 for 7 on some blue fin (all on jigs). I jigged up 5 of the 7 on a pink/silver 150 gram Cyclone. I really like the finish and (more importantly) the action on that jig.

7/8/2011

We broke the Mattgorda jettys around 8am to find the seas bigger then noaa's prediction. We went to check out a few place to fish for next week. we ran across a broken up weed line and put a 4 line spread out. we put out a couple skirts, and a couple Dandys out the in the corners. It didn't take long for the chickens to find the lures. we trolled the scattered line pick up a few kings on a wahoowhacker color Dandy and a nice Cow Mahi on a Blue mama Dandy. We made are way to the snapper spot and pick up a limit a snaps. I drop a few jigs and got one snapper a Atomic Orange Leviathan 250g but no photo's. I stopped jigging because I was getting cut off by kings or something with sharp teeth. we free lined out a few baits and picked up a couple kings and a nice Ling. then headed out to a near by rig and picked up a couple more kings on the dandys. stayed there for about an hour and ran back inshore to try to find the weed line since the seas started to lay down. Nothing was around so we went over a few near by rigs and did some trolling.

We boated about 15 kings on the rigs, and we were only trolling two Dandy's starter getting late so we headed in.

Total for the day
Limit of kings (6) caught 20
Limit of Snapper (6)
Mahi (5)
Ling (1)

BFT & Pollock Jiggin - Late Report - 7/2/11

So, I wasn’t able to make it out last weekend with the boys, but after talking with them and hearing about what they encounter on their trip, I knew I needed to get out this past weekend.

We ended up running out early Saturday to make it to the grounds as the sun came up… immediately started jigging around the scallop boats, looking for some good marks, etc… when all of the sudden the Garmin crapped out… at least we made it out to the grounds with the radar…

We continued to work around several different Scallop boats and didn't see any action or anyone doing anything. So we proceeded to jig blindly around one of the Scallopers, seemed like all of the other boats around us were, chumming and dunken scallop snot…

Sure enough... All of a sudden, I felt what we’re all addicted to, set the hook a few times and yelled over to the boys “Fish –On”…

I was using my 450g BH/PE8 as my 250g BH/PE5 setup was in the “shop”. Let me tell you these fish are fighting like much larger fish, and they’re a blast to catch…

After some short work, but with some effort, we had a pissed off green fish on deck. Quickly took some pictures, got him on ice and got back after it… We stuck to Jigging and Bill was rewarded shortly after the first hookup, and he had a blast fighting the fish on his JM 300g, these fish are not coming in easily… after getting the fish to the boat, green and pissed, off it made a few more runs before we were able to bring him into the boat (just using the jig to slide him in the door), we took a few picture from the tower of the tag-and-release of Bill's fish

A little while later, I came tight on another one, which we followed the same procedure of tagging and releasing the fish, as quickly as possible. We went 3/3 on the BFT before we decided to go and jig up some Pollock (AKA. North Atlantic Amberjack), we went 5 for 8 or so on some really nice sized fish…

The hot jigs for the Pollock where the H4L Mungus jigs… they have been working really well for me on Tuna/Amberjac and its turns out that the Pollock liked them just as much and I'm pretty sure the cod will like they as well

Panama 26 May 11

Well..as I expected..just when you think you figured out the pattern..things change. On our way to the bank we ran by a log that Justin pulled a nice dorado off of..sweet..skunk off. We then ran into a spot of dolphin. I got EXPLODED on by a larger grade tuna that by some miracle did not come tight....on to the bank.

Things definitely looked different. The bright side was that Justin managed a large reef donkey in the 60-70lb class while making bait. We struggled for 2 hours to scratch a couple bonito for bait..not good. We had one half hearted bite from a marlin that didn't come tight. We were positioning ourselves to take off for Montuoso around 1:30...however at 12:30 we got the call..."Macho..Macho..Macho...TUNA..TUNA..TUNA!!" WHat I heard was.."TORA..TORA..TORA!!" Vamanos!! We got there around 1:15 only to find a huge spot of tuna surrounded by 5 or 6 center consoles. It was like the SE corner of Stellwagen (minus Dom screaming on the radio!! just kidding..not really)

They had a decent popper bite going while we were running over. When we arrived on scene we got a couple on poppers with some other half hearted boils....hmmm..I wonder if the fish are staying deep with the boat traffic? Well..if you can't pop em..JIG EM! I saw a HUGE reading at 120ft. I dropped an H4L Mungus jig down and got SLAMMED on my third pump. This fish was pissed! I SWORE it was a 100lb fish..it was about 70 or so. We proceeded to pummel the fish on jigs until Jeffery, the mate and Macho's son said "NO MAS!!" Thats a good day.

BTW..the hot jigs were H4L Mungus and Cyclones...FEAR

Great day on the CR/A-salt weapon

With the 60 being down for some repairs, Adam put us on a-salt weapon. We had a great day. Lots of surface action, plenty of bites on komodos and jigs. The hot jigs were h4l cyclones, but the tridents also worked. Any color really, although blue or blue and pink were getting a few more opportunities.

We went 7 for 15 or so that we came tight on. We had a load of other blowups on the poppers.

Big E Trip

Holy Crap! The YFT loved those Dandy swimbaits. They were hot for the pink ones. I boated 2 with that pink one, and lost one at the boat. I posted pics in the Big E thread...........Thanks again.

Yellowfin All over BoomVang!!!!!!!!! Dec.

I went with BJD76 to test out some new gear. It was a sloppy ride out, but it wasn't so bad out there until late. when we arrived there was only one boat fishing. It didn't take long for Bruce to get hooked up on a nice YF on a popper. Then Luke hooks into a nice YF on a Goober jig. Jason was one of the new guys on the boat and has YF come unbuttoned on a chunk, but brings in a nice YF later in the night on a Goober also. I get a nice hook up to have it come unbuttoned. but on the next drift i get a solid hook set, and work that bad boy to the boat.

It was pretty fast action 60+ pound YF jumping all over. we lost a lot of fish. only a few fish were chewed up by cudas. Only 2 jigs and one stickbait were taken by cudas.

I took the Pluto 9000 out to work it over on tuna, and it did a great job caught a lot of blacks. Jason brought his YF in on it. I had a few big boys get off but the reel was a trooper. it had a smooth drag no binding, and it had the drag to get the fish to the boat.

The jigs that put a hurting on the Tuna were the H4L Goober and Siren 300.
Poppers were Strike Pro Tuna Hunter Jr.

Total for the night
6 YF, 2 (20-30) 4 (60-80)
20+ BF
0 Cudas

Boomvang Sep 29-30th Bite On!!!!!!!!!!!

The Bite was on Guys!!!!!!

I got a call from Bruce (bjd76) Tuesday night. He asked me if i was interested in doing a overnighter at Boomvang. Bruce had just bought some of the jigs I sell. So I said why not it would give me a chance to meet a customer and share any tips I could offer. Also I wanted to trying out some of the new jigs on the tuna. I also got to meet some other great 2coolers I just don't know there handles.

We launch out of BB around 1230. we stopped at Tequila to try to pick up a couple grouper on the way out. Greg brings in a nice Yellowtail seabass after a massive tangle up of mine and his line. we did about one more drop with nothing to show. So we head out. We show up to BV about 530pm and there is no other boaters. As the sun starts to set we start jigging. on other the guys hooks up with a black right off the bat. I get hooked up to a small keeper YF. We get positioned for another drift and I get hooked on to a nice fish on a Siren 300 jig. After about 10-15mins first nice YF hits the deck 65-70#'s. another boat joins of from NA. Tuna are busting the water everywhere. Bruce get's hooked up on a nice YF on a Popper. After a good fight he gets the fish close to the boat and we see the fish is tail wrapped before we could fix it the fish takes off and cuts Bruce off. That YF was in 60+ range.

we caught tons of BF and the cudas were getting there far share we managed to keep about 12 nice BF. The one boat that was there hooked about a 200# Mako. The bite slowed until about 3am then picked up hard from about 3-5 we boated 3 Nice YF Ranging from 95-50# and lost a few good fish that came unbuttoned. Greg was the first one to bat. he was doing some chucking. he left to get a beer and a good fish took off with the chunk. peeling drag. After a good fight we are wondering what the fish is because it's not acting like a Tuna. the fish come up way out from the boat then in to the light to were we can see this is a good size YF. I put the gaff right behind the head and haul this beast over the side.This fish was pushing the 100# mark. Luke was the next to bring in a nice YF on a jig. Luke was in for a long fight and almost got spooled. This fish did not want to come up. I could see the Cudas following this fish around. After about 20+ mins. I get a gaff in the fish and another 60#'er hit's the deck. Bruce was up next he was determined to redeem himself. This fish hit a chunk and hit it hard. after a short fight a nice 50# YF hits the deck. the sun was just coming up about the time we got in position to do another drift. we didn't get anymore hit on the chuck, but i was able to hook a nice fish on a jig before it came unbuttoned. I did get hooked back up but only with a BF. After that we called it a day and headed in.

Total for the trip
6 YF 20-95#'s
Countless BF 12Box 10-20#'s
1 Yellowtail Seabass
