It was a productive trip for Capt. Carl with Westport River Outfitters who said he decided to take a family trip and head out on a calm day in search of tuna. He didn’t have to run much further then Coxes Ledge before his daughter Tara was tight to a 10-pound mahi and he and his brother were hooked up to a few blue runners and a couple of legal sized black sea bass. It was a busman’s holiday under excellent conditions and on the way home they stopped at a few of his favorite tog rockpiles and found some of the small blues and mixed with bones on top in his haunts in upper Buzzards Bay. His brother also caught a 20-inch legal summer flounder. He has some openings for any species you would care to catch and he can trailer his solid rig to most nearby locations.
