Jan. 28th, 2007: "We continue to see the same type sign around the area with the exception of maybe a few more of the 100 to 130-pound class fish showing throughout the day today. Our day pretty much went the same as??two out of the last three days??with the exception of a 200-pound fish; no??cows for us today.

"We had eight of the 100 to 130-pound class yellowfin tuna??and pretty good scratching on the 35 to 60-pound fish from day light to dark. There have been no big hits anywhere that our code group has been in the last week??and so far this area is the best for fairly consistent scratch fishing with the occasional cow. Once again we are going to stay put and keep??putting something aboard each day??with the??hope??that we can get??one or two banner days before our fishing time runs out. The forecasts for the weather in this region have been right on the mark, with light and variable winds and no seas, we are enjoying that aspect of the trip immensely." (Skipper John Grabowski)
