Black Marlin, Blue Marlin, Sailfish, Yellowfin Tunas, Wahoo, Roosterfish

As we roll through August, the fishing continues to be excellent. More and more Blue Marlin are showing up and huge Yellowfin Tunas seem to be everywhere. The tunas are super sixed, most in the 150-200 lb range. The biggest one for the week tipped the scales at 230 lbs.
