We all love fishing in the Northeast, but sometimes you just have to get away. Of course getting away is a lot more exciting when big yellowfin tuna and blue marlin are in the mix.
Here's a quick recap of a phenomenal trip off Puerto Vallarta. Brought to you by Captain Paul Peluso of MamaMia Charters-based out of Great South Bay, NY.

Fished on the Maximus out of Puerto Vallarta, Mexico on a 4 days tuna trip.
On the first morning we hooked into a 300lb Blue marlin right as we got to the Tres Marias Islands. The next fish on the troll was a YFT over 200.
We then decided to deploy the kites and flat lines. Over the next 2 days we had at least 1 fish on almost all day and at one point we had 4 or 5 on. Total to the boat was about 30 fish some close to if not over the 300lb mark. Most of the fish were over the 175 mark and a few were in the 60-70lb range. Everyone in our group had their personal best yellowfin tuna.
