Nice pictorial documentary report! I don't fish offshore that far north, so I am always curious to know what it might be like. That Atlantic bumper has a nasty spike on it's underside. One might think they would be a good bait, but I have trolled them for hours for sharks or zilch. That blue runner would have made a good slow troll bait for a smoker King Mackerel. Those Little Tunnies or as the locals call them Bonita, can get pretty thick in about another month. Most of the catch farther Sth is either released or cut up in strips to troll off planners by the charter boats. Most consider it too fishy, but it is popularly prepared as a poke in Hawaii.
