Hello Anglers,
Well, we fished the trip up with a bang. A all day drift today produced almost straight cows in absolutely flat calm coco butter weather. Out of our first flurry we had 10 fish and 6 of them were from 212 to 291 pounds and that was the beginning of a epic day. We had a slow plunker the rest of the day and ended up with 28 yellowfin from 185 to 303 pounds. 18 of the 28 fish today were over 200 pounds with 4 more in the 195 to 198 pound range. The quality and the opportunity of a life time that has been put before us this season is just spectacular and it doesn't look like it is slowing down at all. We have 108 fish over 150 pounds and 59 wahoo for our trip and this is the kind of catch we would love to have on any 16 or 18 day trip. I looks like we have between 25 or 29 fish over 200 pound for the trip and we will be in on Nov. 22nd at Fisherman's Landing. We will check in with the final tally. 200 pound fish for the day go to : Carl Dorton with a 247 Shawn and the crew Dan Colonello with a 229 Mark Dorton with a 291 John Carlson with a 215 John Preston with a 218 Steve Wenzel with a 230 Bill Cashman with a 202 Ed Schmutzler with a 220 Wayne Snowbarger with a 207 Greg Voudouris with a 207 Paul Backes with a 212, 303 Nick Voudouris with a 280 Steve Olson with a 215 Don Gardener with a 204 Barry Barlow with a 262 Phil Pond with a 229 John Kabay with a 200

Hello Anglers,
Today we tried our hand at wahoo fishing and had a pretty good day at it. Our weather was very cooperative as we looked around and had some good action spread through out the day. There was also some good 20 to 40 pound yellowfin around for us to catch but we did not concentrate on them. For the day we had 52 wahoo, most of which was 40 to 55 pounds, and 22 nice grade yellowfin. We are...... Read More

Hello Anglers,
Today was almost a repeat of yesterday with not much in the morning and very good action in the afternoon. We had 35 yellowfin from 130 to with a 219 being the biggest one of the day. The weather is still beautiful with just enough wind to get the kite out. Tomorrow we are going to try our luck again and see if the lucky horseshoe stays with us. We will check in tomorrow.
