We decided to finish our trip at the beautiful island of Guadalupe looking for trophy yellowfin tuna. We started out fishing the south end of the island where we saw a few fish, but unfortunately only got a handful to bite. After looking around the island after lunch and trying a few different spots we returned to the south end where we set up for the afternoon. We started picking at them around 1500 and an hour later we had 2 to 3 hanging until dark. Unfortunately we had up to 3 white sharks around the boat and they we taking their toll on our hook-to-land ratio. All things considered we had a good day and were able to put some trophies on the boat. We ended up with 34 tuna that ranged from 45 to 90 pounds. We also got a couple of beautiful yellowtail that will be close to 40 pounds. We stuck around the island and hoped we could get a few in the morning but just as they started to splash around we had to pull the hook and head for home. We did get a couple more tuna along with a good flurry on yellows. As we work up the line we are enjoying beautiful weather and hope that on the next trip we can put together a similar score with the same variety. -Justin
