Pretty increadible tuna bite the end of last week..had the Broussards and Cloptons from Lake Charles area Friday..the bite was fast and furious in the 3 hours we fished with the final tally at 11 yellowfin..only kept 4 big ones and 4 schoolies releasing 3 of the fish boatside by cutting the leader..we even had 4 fish on at one time which we turned successfully with some fancy 2 and 3 stepping..obviously this bunch has been to the weekend fais do do at Harris' Restuarant..stopped off at one rig to catch one small keeper grouper before arriving safely home at 2pm..I can't recall ever seeing so much bait in green water this fall..herring, hardtails, pogies and juvenile bonita..seems like the bite will last as long as the bait hangs around or gets consumed...In other news..Willie 'one jump' Miller took the Cabo to Florida this week along with pal Richard Creed and dad, Mike Miller..they went 2 for 5 on blue marlin and kept 3 tuna in the 2 days they fished..Willie said the blue water was in between the beer can and the ram, although it will likely be blue, white and bloody at Port Eads by week's end.....Paradise Outfitters - 985-845-8006
