NOTE 1: Yellowfin Tuna are caught on the eastern side of the Gulf Stream. This requires a boat trip of 60 to 100 miles.
NOTE 2: Most Marlin are caught in conjunction with Yellowfin Tuna trips; a 50% Marlin hookup can be expected. In early spring, Marlin also migrate to the western side of the stream. Significant catches are reported at this time.
