Hi Gang,

We anchored up at 0645 yesterday morning and before we even came tight on the anchor we had waves of yellowtail chasing bait ane jigs. The guys fishing the surface iron were doing really good and the JRI #4 and JRI Stinger jigs were the most productive. A well presented sardine behind the boat was an almost instant bite and the guys fishing the 30# fluorocarbon and a #1 J hook had the best success. Fluorocarbon doesn't reflect ligh as much as regular monofiliment and is less visible to the fish which, in turn, gets more bites. All of our fish were 12 to 20 pounds with some fish up to 40#'s. It was as good as it gets yellowtail fishing. Everyone is stoked. We are making our way up the coast to fish bluefin the last day of our trip. Life is good, Captain Bill Cavanaugh and the Intrepid Team
