Canyon Runner Overnighter 6/20-6/21

[Canyon Runner]

Captain Phil Dulanie, Captain Mark DeBlasio, and Captain Justin Nighan had the Canyon Runner back offshore Monday at noon and headed off into a stiff Northeast so did not make it to the tip of the Hudson until 5:00pm. They proceeded to work the canyon and put a 47.5 inch bluefin (around 75 pounds) in the boat. The bluefin hit a 6 inch Canyon Runner Custom Rainbow spreader bar. They then set up for sharking at night only produced a few big blueshark and then they were up on the troll by 6am. Working north they hooked up and boated our first yellowfin of the season - a 40 pounder that ate a 6 inch rainbow squid bar. At 11am the wind completely laid out and they decided to give the tile fishing a try. Dropping in 550 feet of water on those numbers they immediately had fish on using a high/low rig with circle hooks and squid as hook baits. They put 12 tilefish in the boat in 1 hour of drifting including several between 12-15 pounds.
