Canyon Runner

Capts. Mark DeBlasio and Pete Doran have switched over to giant tuna fishing for the fall/winter season on the 48 Canyon Runner. They moved the Canyon Runner up to Chatham on Monday afternoon and Tuesday was their first full day of fishing. They didn't catch anything on Tuesday, a 71 inch short on Wednesday afternoon (released) and a 70 inch short in the middle of the night at 3am (released).
Drift fishing they reset this morning just before slack tide and the fish bait in the water - a herring - was engulfed by the right one this time just seconds after walking away from the rod. This one took one hour to fight and we were lucky enough to put it in the boat. It is around 650 pounds.
I'll have pictures later in the week.
