Hello Anglers, We arrived at the lower banks early in the morning yesterday. After scouting the area thoroughly, we realized the fish had moved. The day was not very productive with only one tuna coming over the rail. Today, our mission was to relocate the fish that were here the past few days. Around 0800 we found an area of schools of big fish pushing giant squid around. We managed to put a nice day together with 34 tuna up to 282 pounds. Three passengers set their personal bests today starting with Phil Ruemmler with his 261 pounder. Captain peanut butter himself raised the bar with a 232 pound tuna. And Rick Iwatsubo landed a 229 pounder caught on the kite. Mark Dorton caught a 282 and Ger Steinberg boated a 242 pound tuna. The weather is flat calm now for us and we have three more days to to try and stay on this fish. Wish us luck........

This will give us five days of fishing for "GIGANTES" on the beach. Most of our guys...... Read More
