Another fantastic day on the Qualifier 105. It started about an hour after sunrise and lasted all day! We pulled the anchor were we spent a great night, and started to troll around. A couple of fish were up and chasing some sort of baitfish just out in front of the boat so we stopped. It didn't take long before a few heavies were hooked. The first few fish seemed to be BIG as our anglers were all fishing heavy tackle and having a tough time slowing these monsters down.

One angler who did a great job from start to finish with NO help needed in any way from the crew was Pin Yam Ng. He landed one that taped around 265, and then the next to hit the deck was Allen Lemberg with a fish right at 200 lbs. The next was Scooter Silverman with another 265! All three are something to be proud of and their true weights won\'t be known until we reach San Diego next week. A little comedy today up on the bow, we are lucky to have two chefs that can and will work on deck if we need them.

Today Cappy was up on the bow with an angler who needed to get around the anchor. This can be tricky, you lie on the winch that pulls the anchor and hand the rod under the anchor rope. Thing was, here is Cappy laying up there fighting a huge fish trying to pass the rod under the rope and we are drifting! No anchor rope in the water just in a pile on deck, when that was pointed out to Cappy the look on his face was priceless! Today's picture is (L to R), Pin, Scooter, Allen, and Jack\"urate\" in front. All three fish were landed with the world's best reels, Accurates!

Tomorrow we are planning a repeat of today and there are some huge fish in the area, wish us luck.
