Georgia Gulf Stream Fishing Trip from St Simons Island - LOADED the fishbox!

We met at the docks for a 3 am Gulf Stream run out of Saint Simons Island Marina - May 2nd 2020 on a brand new Sea Hunt 27 Gamefish. Loaded up on Mahi, Tuna and Wahoo with an Amberjack at M1R1 to finish out the day. The Gulf Stream is 90 miles East of Saint Simons Island GA. The stars have to align for a Gulf Stream run for us local guys - really good weather, the boat is running, the anglers all have a free weekend, and more importantly all have some extra boat gas money! We can catch a cooler full of mahi, wahoo, tuna, king mackerel. On this day we were in a brand new Sea Hunt 27 Gamefish and it ran like a boss!
Also, have some footage of super slick seas around the M1R1 Navy Tower. This one is about 50 miles offshore of Georgia. We couldn't help but stop at the tower on the way back and picked up an AJ.

This looks like an awesome trip. How far out ?

[@SaintSimonsSportsman]

We gotta run 90 miles East to the Gulf Stream and the ledges. Georgia has the best fishing!

I live in BWK and run out of St Simons. Sure is a long run but worth it. I think I’ve watched about all your videos from the area, thanks for replying.

I've went once. 85 miles out of st Simon's. My go to for offshore and inshore fishing. The navy towers about 40-60 out are awesome and from July to September the bull red migration is absolutely crazy 36"+ on a regular basis with awesome tarpon fishing near the Cumberland islands.

I’ve been out to the south ledge, caught some tuna and kingfish. I would like to get into the mahi though. Fished R5 a few times, but not R4 yet. I plan on running out there as soon as the weather lays down. Yesterday was roughhh. 3-5 ft ever 6 seconds and windy

@Cubera Snapper yesss! I love the Mahi bite off the grass mats in the emerald green water. Seen a very large blue marlin chasing after a 20" Mahi last time I went.
It's been awhile since I've fished the towers but they're fun as well. Have you tried M1R1?
And absolutely, 3-5 at 6 is past what I'd enjoy being out in.
