After a couple of days trophy hunting we started our way up the line in not so pretty weather. Slow and easy we are working up the coast and looking for Yellowtail to end our trip on. We had quite a few chances at a jumbo tuna the past 3 days. The guys had plenty of action on the school grade tuna while waiting for the big bite. The excitement really sets in watching the giants blow out of the water and chase a kite bait. We sure would’ve liked to get a few more on deck but our last day was spent seeing a lot more fish that wouldn’t bite. Nevertheless we are headed up with high hopes to end the trip with some Yellowtail action. The weather looks to give us a brief window tomorrow before the wind picks back up. Wish us luck. Matt and Independence Crew.
