Fathers Day Tradition – Offshore *video*

It is a Fathers Day tradition for Matt and I to spend the day fishing with our ole man.  We were shooting for Sunday, but the weather ended up looking much better for Saturday.  We got up at 0300 and headed for Rudee Inlet to hop on the “Fresh & Salt” and head offshore.  We were greeted with some 4 foot chop on our ride out which made our 85 mile run to the 750 line due east of Oregon Inlet a lengthy one. We arrived to fishing grounds and set out our spread. It didn’t take long for all six rods go down at once.  The line broke on one of the rods, but we did manage to get five tuna in the box.  We picked at the mahi and managed one more single hookup on a yellowfin a little later in the morning which ended up being the biggest of the day.  We knew we had a long ride home so we put her in the wind and started making our way back around 1300.  After getting back to the dock and cleaning the fish, we headed over to Rudee’s restaurant to cheers a cold beer to another great Fathers Day in the books.  Threw together a little clip as well, Enjoy!
