The weather picked up over the night and we had 20-22 knots of wind all day which made for very tough working conditions. We saw the same sign of fish today as we have been seeing but it was wild and hard to stay with, the weather was a big factor in our day's end total. We ended the day with nine fish once again from 170- 197 pounds, absolutely beautiful grade yellowfin tuna.

At dark we prepared the vessel for traveling, battened down the hatches and put her on course for home. We will report as we make our way home, for those of you who are going to meet the boat Sunday I will post an ETA Friday and an update on Saturday. Please stay tuned.

Very good fishing conditions around the bank today...... Read More
