Chase the Thrill: Mahi-Mahi Fishing with Tightlines Charters
Fishing in the Gulf Stream off the coast of Savannah, GA, offers an exhilarating adventure for anglers seeking deep-sea action. Tightlines Saltwater Fishing Charters can make any trip exciting and special. Their charter to the Gulf Stream to target Mahi Mahi and other trophies is like no other.
To get to the Gulf Stream, you must head out 60 ā 80 miles from the docks. But even though it is a long way to go, it is so worth it. The warm ocean currents are home to Mahi Mahi, but you can also find Marlin, Sailfish, Wahoo and Tuna.
Captain Sean Yeckley and his crew are experienced and knowledgeable. They know the area and where the best places to find the trophy fish you want to hook up with.
Because you have to wait for the waters to warm up a bit, there is not really great fishing until at least April. This is when the Mahi Mahi starts to show up. Then their season runs to September, giving you plenty of opportunities to reel them in.
Anglers wait all winter long to fish for these beautiful fish with bright blueish-green, yellow and silver colors that flash in the sunlight as they leap acrobatically through the air. They are hard-fighting fish that give you a real battle as you try to bring them into the boat. They are also one of the tastiest fish, making them very sought-after.
Captain Yeckley has perfected his proven techniques to give you the best chances for success when targeting Mahi Mahi during your Gulf Stream trips. Using many ways to attract these fish makes for a very productive day on the water for anglers of all abilities.
Tightlines Saltwater Fishing Charters’s main techniques are trolling and looking for floating debris, weed lines and birds to catch these fish. They also have other methods when these two are not giving good results.
Trolling is the go-to method for open-water fishing for fishing for Mahi Mahi. These fish are drawn to movement and color, so Captain Yeckley uses a variety of brightly colored lures, often paired with a natural bait like ballyhoo. He runs multiple lines to cover a large area and increase the chances of attracting fish.
Looking for weed lines, floating debris, and birds are other well-known methods for finding Mahi Mahi. They are known to gather around the sargassum weeds and floating objects like logs and buoys. There are a lot of baitfish in both places, attracting larger game fish. Once spotted, Captain Yeckley trolls near them or positions the boat to cast your lines out.
Other techniques that also work are chumming and casting, live bait and fast retrievals. All three of these are great ways to reel in these fish.
Tightlines Saltwater Fishing Charters operates a fully equipped, modern fishing vessel designed for comfort, safety, and performance on Gulf Stream adventures. The 26 ft 2023 Twin Vee Catamaran has powerful engines to get you to the Gulf Stream quickly. It also has top-of-the-line navigation and fishing equipment. There is plenty of deck space for anglers to fish without getting in each other’s way, and there are shaded areas to ensure a comfortable experience, even during long offshore trips.
The offshore charter that Tightlines Saltwater Fishing Charters offers its guests is a 12-hour trip 70 miles offshore. With their boat, they will get you to the Gulf Stream and casting lines quickly for maximum time fishing.
By combining local knowledge, specialized techniques, a boat built for fishing and high-quality gear, Tightlines Saltwater Fishing Charters is the charter to book in Savannah, Georgia. When fishing with Captain Yeckley, anglers have the best chance of hooking and landing these vibrant, hard-fighting fish.
