Captain Cary on the party boat, Success, returned from Mag Bay with a boatload of YFT's all over 200
pounds, with one over 371 pounds.

Local Mark Rayor, Vista Sea Sport, commented that this was the nicest November since he moved to East Cape many years ago. While I was talking him this morning, he reported that the fish were busting right in front of his house. Couldn't tell what they were, but they were creating a ruckus.

Tuna continue to dominate the action...nothing very large but hungry and close. Couple that with the best dorado bite this year and it's easy to understand why the locals are asking each other, "where are the tourists?"

Another November surprise is the consistent wahoo bite that has been happening recently. Throw in a few other species including striped marlin, sailfish, jack cravelle, skipjacks, cabrilla and pargo and you might call it a remarkable Thanksgiving.

For the inshore gang, it is sierra time and there isn't a happy hour worth its salt that doesn't have fresh cerviche.
