I had Anthony, Jim, Neil and Derrick come down from Raleigh for a 3/4 day live bait trip. Left with 2 live wells full of pogies and headed off shore. We hooked up right away on the 1st drift but got broke off in the wreck quickly. The current was running hard in the morning and the fish did not want to eat top water. They did however eat live bait no issues. Later in the morning we finally got them to the top and got them fired up. Anthony actually hooked a fish next to the boat while letting his popper just float with no movement. The surprise of the day was when Anthony dropped down a live bait on his ultra light rod and landed a 14 lb Black fin tuna. We had a couple more take baits but did not keep them hooked. A great day of live bait and top water action.
