Canyon Chunking-Jigging Trip with Andrew Lin Charter
Had Andrew out with kids Harrison and Corina
And buddy Rich. On way to canyon made a pit
Stop at inshore spot, got an under Bluefin and
Yellowfin. Continued towards Hudson and
Stopped for some mahi, landing Corina's first.
Trolled square till dark no bites. Got set up for
The night and began chunking, had a mystery fight
For half and hour on a tuna rig, might have been a sword
Chafed off the leader. Had a couple of sharks then
At 4am all hell broke loose, fish schooled up under
The boat and had them on jigs as well as sardines. These
Yellows were the nicer jumbos making them difficult to
Land for my inexperienced crew, did manage to get
3 to the boat to 60lbs losing many more. In the morning
Crew had enough and came home. Andrew had been
Planning on this trip for a while, Glad he got to see what canyon chunking and jigging is all about!
