Hello Anglers,

Today was our last day of the trip and boy did we end it with a bang. Fifty fish from 125 to 200 plus pounds for us today and we had to release the last few fish we had hooked because we filled the boat and did not have room for them. Everything looked right today with good bird life and the small tuna were around and we had god current all day to help us out. We about 40 % of our fish on the chunks and 50 % on sardines and the last 10 % were on big baits, skipjack, rainbow runners and small yellowfin. From 0830 until dark we had 3 to 8 fish going at once and it was a good pace for both the passengers and the crew. There was at least 10 fish today from 180 to 195 pounds and 2 that were right at 200 pounds. We packed up our belongings and are heading for Cabo now and the reports on our weather are very good so we can take care of some projects on the way home. We will check in tomorrow. Shawn and the crew

Hello Anglers,

Today was another day with good weather. In the morning hours we saw good sign of big fish and managed 17 of them and they were from 130 to 247 pounds. The big fish was caught by Tom Howe of Las Vegas who used a live skipjack on a 100 foot 100 pound wind on by Basil and a Eagle Claw 9014 in a 9\0 size. The fish taped out at 247 but it is a very fat fish...... Read More

Hello Anglers,

Another very slow day for us today here on the bank. We once again saw fish but we could not get them to bite. We picked up a few wahoo but that was about it. Our weather has been beautiful all day so we had that going for us. We are hoping that the fish will get balled up and get on the bite again before we have to get going for home. We will check in tomorrow. Shawn...... Read More
