A fine morning packed with epic scenery and nice variety fishing followed a night at anchor in flat calm conditions. Afternoon was go time offshore in search of the missing southern wave of bluefin. Again they eluded us. A few scattered fish was the culmination of our efforts none of which showed any inclination to bite. One more shot offshore tomorrow and a ton of good ground to traverse promises a full day of looking for that new mother lode. Photo today features Royal Star friend and master angler Mike Kellogg with a fine "consolation" White Sea bass, one of several he landed during the night.
