Hatteras tuna fishing

We fished today, with some guys from the Richmond fire dept., as well as a few other charter boats out of Hatteras. We caught our first yellow fin tuna very shortly after we set out. There was a scattering of tuna but they were not schooled up very good. A lot of single bites. As the day progressed I was seeing more and more bait on the sonar. It's just a matter of time before the tuna find the bait and then we will catch more than 1 at a time. Looking forward to going again tomorrow! I almost forgot we had 2 bites from large mako sharks . One of which destroyed my spreader bar! We also had a gaffer dolphin. Only a few weekend days left til July so call soon!
