Weather today was outstanding. Fishing was even better. We caught fish from daybreak till after dark. They bit the kite, the sardines, the chunks, and the PL68. We landed 64 Yellowfin tuna for the day with just a handful under 100 pounds. Most were 140 to 195 pounds. We had at least 8 fish over 200 pounds. Big fish Bob Wolfson got a 241 pounder and his very next fish on the chunk was right at 200 pounds. Larry Chin had 2 over 200 pounds, one at 236 on the chunk. Tom Benedetti got a 215 pond fish on the skip-jack for bait and his very next fish on the sardine was 195 pounds. Matt Brown had a 207 pound fish, plus a 170 pound fish on the iron. Bruce Benedict had big fish on all day getting one over 200 and 4 more fish 150 to 190 pounds. Kurt Schenk and John Angel both had big fish today which if I remember correctly each had one over 200 pounds. Don Burnside got a 175 pound fish on the chunk and lost a couple of good ones.

Obviously it was a wonderful day. We had to dump about 50 scoops of bait today to start a new RSW well and obviously we are hoping to repeat this day tomorrow. Enjoy the photos, and wish us luck. The R/p crew.

P.S. Camerom, great report card!!!
