Do Yellowfin fight harder? Is that a thing? Please let me know what you think. After watching the footage of my 6 catches, it seem that the Yellowfin had more fight than the similar size Bluefin. Maybe one or two more runs in them. I added a photo of our location in the video. We hooked up with some fish that wanted to play on the 3rd day. This Yellowfin made me work a bit and loved every second of it. The Independence is and amazing boat and the team didn’t rest for a second when we were searching for fish.

I’m new and I was remembering things that I have learned from YouTube and the days leading into this 5th day of our trip. The reason I knew about the Madmacs was because of Mikey SD Fish and Sips 🙁 Crossing into warmer waters leads to bites was my proactive approach on this troll. I remember thinking it and making sure my line was in the water when this happened. This was my first trip, and this troll hookup was another 1st for me. Pure enjoyment on the Independence Sportfishing boat.

We headed further south for Yellowfin and found them. The Independence was the first boat to turn in big numbers for the 2026 season.
