Hello Anglers,

This morning we did not get the shotat fish that we were hoping for. We picked up 4 fish in the morning hours from 90 to 140 pounds. The rest of the day was slow with little or no current all day and not much bite on the tuna. We had currentfor a hour in the afternoon and while we had that we picked up 5 more fish, 90, 110,120,185,187,and a 212 pound yellowfin. When the current stopped the fish vanished and we did not see a scale the rest of the day.Tonight we are going to make a move to a different area and hope we can get some more big fish located so we will check in later, Wish us luck. The picture that I am sending is of (left to right), Steve Elliot with a 185 pound yellowfin, David Shinoda with a 187 pound yellowfin, and first time long range angler Guy Walker with a 212 pound yellowfin and all were caught on sardines and 100 pound line. Shawn and the crew.

We have been traveling South the last few days on our Soft Steel 18 day. Carl and Rose Burns along with Ed White of 976-Tuna have been doing raffles and give aways which include t-shirts, rod blanks, wahoo bombs, and other fishing gear. We have been doing tackle, mono and wire crimping seminars as well as doing a proper harness use seminar. The weather so far has been beautiful and our sardines look very good as well. Wish us luck...... Read More
