Great Fishing!

Another day of great Tuna fishing aboard the Pelican.  We landed 13 Yellowfin Tuna and 6 nice gaffer dolphin (Mahi).  The fleet did well with dolphin and a few Big Eye Tuna were caught as well.

Another Great Tuna Day!

  Todd Fischer and his friends landed eleven nice Yellowfin Tuna and two nice gaffer Mahi on the Pelican today ending the day with a nice catch.  A little slower than it has been lately but still a super day.

SHARK!

After a week of threats Beryl had its way with the OBX fleet.  Fortunately it only lasted for 12 hours and most of that was last night.  Today dawned with the sea laying out and the Tuna biting.  Big Time!  Along with the sharks. For every Tuna that went in the box two where mauled […]

Wahoo!

Pete Dunklee and friends enjoyed a great day of fishing onboard the Pelican today. 14 Yellow Fin, a dolphin and two citation Wahoo, weighing in at 55 and 43 pounds respectively, went in the box. The weather turned out to be much calmer than forecasted as Beryl poses less of a threat for the time […]

Beryl and or Burly!

Nothing but a big swell so far. Not enough of one to keep the Pelican and a portion of the OBX fleet from a day of fishing. A lot of variety today as Tuna in the 30-40 pound range along with a couple of 25 LB plus Wahoo made there way into the box! Big […]

Tuna by the box

With a bit of sea and typical OBX May weather conditions the Pelican made it out to the Tuna hole. As they have most everyday that’s been fishable the group was rewarded with a box full of Yellowfin. As of this date the Pelican has the 29th and 30th of May as well as June […]

Even a rainy day…..

can produce a box full of Yellowfin. The Pelican carried Carl and his buddies from Frederick, Maryland out to 64 degree water and found Tuna willing to help them celebrate a birthday or two. Great excuse to go fishing!  In spite of the rain squalls a good time was had by all.

What Storm?

In spite of a dire forecast associated with a decaying area of low pressure the OBX fleet pressed on.  Fishing near “The Point” and filling the box full of respectable Tuna and Mia Mia the Pelican and crew also released a sail.  In the heat of the moment and amongst the fleet, in grass,  Arch’s […]
