[Canyon Runner]

Captains Phil Dulanie, Mark DeBlasio and Justion Nighan headed right back out to the 100square area with the Dave Babish charter from Philadelphia, PA on Thursday and got in 1.5 hours of trolling but did not have a touch. They set up on the drift in almost exactly they same place as the night before and drifted in 450-500 feet of water. They had their first bite at 1am and then went 5 for 6 through the night on 50 pound yellowfin release one small one. They had all the bait they wanted but not the hot bite of the night before. They ended their drfit almost right on the 100-square. Up on the troll in the morning it was crowded over on the east side so they left and went over to the west wall where they picked one more longfin.

Captains Phil Dulanie, Kevin Gerrity, and Greg Ryback had the Pedro Rodriguez charter from Rumson, NJ out on the Canyon Runner for a rare Saturday-Sunday overnighter and headed east until they did not see anymore boats. They started working the troll and had a 7 baggers of yellowfin out of 9 bites. They put 5 in the boat and released 2 smaller ones. The ones in the boat were 40-50 pounds. With 9 rods going off they ate everything including green Canyon Runner mini-mamba bars and ballyhoo however our squid bars were not touch. That was the only bite on the troll. They set up on the chunk and drifted only 1 mile the entire night with no wind or current. They picked one yellowfin around 60 pounds that ate a live squid and in the morning as they were cleaning up and throwing all the chum over they had longfin come in the slick and picked two quick ones around 40 pounds in 450 feet of water making a total of 10 tuna for the trip.
