Hi angler's It ended up being another nice day today. Once again the morning was slow, and we ended up making the day in the late afternoon. It wasn't as good today as it had been, but we still ended up with 12 fish over 100 lbs. and about 12 from 75 - 95 lbs. for the day. The two biggest fish of the day were Jim Carlisle with a 170 and Tim Turis with a 175. I have sent a picture of Jim's fish coming over the rail and Tim with his nice fish. There is also a photo of Tony Lott with a 125 lb. tuna being assisted by crewmembers Shawn and Mike. The high light of the day was a short night bite that we had from about 6 :30 - 8:00 in the evening. The first two fish were around 140 lbs. and both kamikaze's. We picked up another 8 fish after that, from 60 - 100 lbs. It was an exciting way to finish the day. It seems as though things are changing, however we still see sign of good fish around. I still have high hopes for getting some cows. We will be here again tomorrow.
