Inshore Tuna Fishing happening NOW! **SPECIAL**
The "5-5" inshore tuna trip is happening NOW and should be good for the next few weeks. We are fishing 35-40 miles out for bluefin tuna, mahi and wahoo. The trip is $1500 plus mate's tip which works out to under $300 a man (if you have 6 guys). This is a great price for a tuna trip on a big fast comfortable boat. This is a seasonal window with these fish and they will be gone by mid-late August. Our biggest fish on this kind of trip last year was 182 pounds. Get into REEL TROUBLE and fight a big tuna.

The charter fishing boat REEL TROUBLE had a nice catch of tuna yesterday. We wound up with 12 yellowfin tuna between 50-60 pounds, had a white marlin up and fought a 400# blue marlin for 15 minutes before he decided to release himself.

2007 Tuna Season--attention Tuna Fishermen.
The Reel Trouble is now accepting bookings for the LBI 2007 tuna season. We will be tuna fishing on the Reel Trouble out of Beach Haven, Long Beach Island, NJ from June thru October. We will start the season in June with the school bluefin tuna and continue with the yellowfin tuna and hopefully the Bigeyes in July thru October. We can comfortably accomodate 6 anglers on this big 40' custom tuna charter boat. The 3/4 walk around design allows you 60' of fishing rail to battle the tuna. We have been taking charters to the canyon for 17 years now and know what it takes to do it right. Check out our picture gallery to see the see the big bluefins, yellowfins, and bigeyes. Capt. Bill caught his first tuna in 1975. Let our experience work for you.

The BIG SEABASS are here! May 12 report
The Dr. Chaing group fished their 17th year in a row aboard the REEL TROUBLE. Always a pleasure to have these great fishermen aboard and watch them bail the seabass. These guys always kick off the seabass season, they show up every year just like Spring does. The guys had the fish coming 3 at a time for the first hour then it slowed to a pick. Wound up with over 100 nice seabass. Bluefishing remains excellent in the inlet. We even managed a 32" striper on this trip. Have days avaialble the next 2 weekends.
