# Captain Jack's Complete Offshore Report - November 4, 2025
Good morning, offshore fanatics. This is Captain Jack, and I'm here to give you the high-tech, no-nonsense breakdown of what's happening in the deep. The post-Melissa transition is underway, and with the full moon approaching on November 5, we're looking at a dynamic and potentially explosive offshore scene. Let's break it down, south-to-north.
###
Hudson Canyon - November 4, 2025
The Hudson is showing signs of life after the recent blow. Water temperatures are holding in the mid-60s, and we're seeing some promising temperature breaks forming on the western wall. Reports from the **Bluefin IV** and **Rock Fish Charters** indicate that the yellowfin bite is picking up on the troll, with fish in the 40- to 60-pound class being taken. The key has been to find the warmer water eddies and work the edges. Bigeye are still a possibility, but the bite has been inconsistent. The 72-hour oceanographic outlook shows a significant upwelling event, which should concentrate bait and improve the bite even further.
### Atlantis Canyon - November 4, 2025
Moving north, Atlantis is a bit of a mixed bag. The water is still a little churned up from the storm, but it's starting to lay down. The crew of the **Alyssa Ann Sportfishing** found some nice mahi-mahi on the troll, along with a few scattered yellowfin. The key here is to find the temperature breaks and troll the edges with a mixed spread of ballyhoo and spreader bars. The albacore are also starting to show up in greater numbers, providing some fast and furious action.
### Block Canyon - November 4, 2025
Block Canyon is where things start to get interesting. The water is cleaner here, and the temperature breaks are more defined. We're seeing a good mix of yellowfin and bigeye being taken on the troll and on the chunk. The **Lady Grace Charters** had a great trip here over the weekend, with a nice catch of both species. The key has been to find the bait, which has been a mix of squid and mackerel. The predictive forecasting models show a large body of warm water pushing into the canyon, which should bring with it even more fish.
### Toms Canyon - November 4, 2025
Toms Canyon has been the hot spot for the past week, and it shows no signs of slowing down. The **Finall-ey Fishing** crew has been putting a hurting on the yellowfin here, with fish up to 80 pounds being reported. The bite has been best at dawn and dusk, with both trolling and chunking being effective. The key here has been to find the whales and the birds, which have been marking the bait and the fish.
### Fishtails/Bacardi Grounds - November 4, 2025
The Fishtails and Bacardi Grounds are holding a good number of fish, but they're a bit more scattered. The key here is to cover a lot of water and look for the life. We're seeing a mix of yellowfin, bigeye, and mahi-mahi being taken on the troll. The 72-hour outlook shows a convergence of currents in this area, which should concentrate the bait and the fish.
### Montauk Offshore Grounds - November 4, 2025
Finally, the Montauk offshore grounds are starting to come alive. The water is still a little cool, but the fish are starting to move in. We're seeing some nice yellowfin and bigeye being taken on the troll, as well as some bluefin tuna. The key here is to find the warm water eddies and work the edges. The predictive forecasting models show a large body of warm water pushing into the area, which should make for some great fishing in the coming days.
That's the latest from the offshore grounds. It's a dynamic situation out there, so be sure to check the latest sea surface temperature charts and oceanographic data before you head out. This is Captain Jack, signing off.
