I live in SW PA so I'm about 6 hours from the Jersey shore and 8 hours from the Outer banks/Oregon Inlet where the bluefin was caught. I only fish my seacraft on Lake Erie during the summer months for walleyes which is about 4 hours from my house. If you total it all up I'm filling my freezer with fish for about 50.00 a pound

That`s about what I spend, but my fish are much smaller.

Nice job!

I was down there Thursday-Sunday and fished Fri and Sat. on the Canyon Runner. Released one Sat. over 85" and pushing 350lbs.

Incredible fishery down there. We had one eat a popper on Friday 15 yards off the transom.

A little different fighting that class of fish from the ones in NJ!
