Ian here!!! So we got in to the Bluefin this last week before the bite slowed down. Had a few hookups on the Nomad MadMacs 200g Silver Pink stripe. Had a double hook up on yellowtail trolling by a kelp patty that turned in to a pretty good drift for some yellows which was super fun. The weather came up a bit so we plan to get back in to it this following week.
