Adam at Canyon Runner Sportfishing reported offshore fishing heating up for several CR ProStaff teams working waters off South Jersey and Maryland’s Ocean City region, with strong bluefin tuna action leading the charge. Anglers are also seeing a mix of bigeye and yellowfin tuna showing up, adding to an already exciting offshore bite. Multiple crews including Marli, Talkin Trash, Restless Lady 1 & 2, and Primary Search, have all been connecting with double-digit bluefin in the Baltimore and Washington Canyon areas, keeping rods bent and spreads working overtime. While the offshore bite is producing, there is still little to no action closer to shore at this point. However, conditions are beginning to shift, with improving water movement pushing east and opening up new opportunities. Some Canyon Runner coaching members are already finding success from Atlantis to Hydrographers, targeting yellowfin, bluefin, and even marlin as the offshore season continues to build momentum.

Capt. Adam of Canyon Runner Sportfishing reported exciting developments on the offshore front this past week. Canyon Runner ProStaff Capt. Mark Hoos aboard the Marli and Capt. Chris Little on Talkin Trash, both fishing out of Ocean City, Maryland, connected with yellowfin tuna for the first time this season. Working waters near Norfolk Canyon, the crews found fish on two separate trips, an encouraging sign that the offshore tuna season is beginning to gain momentum. Closer to home, the biggest buzz along the New Jersey coast has been the massive concentrations of squid showing up surprisingly close to the beach. Acres of squid have been reported just off the shoreline, creating a tremendous amount of excitement among offshore anglers.
