HEADED NORTH (111811)!!! Hi folks; Sorry about the past few days, but quite busy we did not report on our website solely because we were not receiving a satellite signal at Hurricane bank. It is Friday night and we have been on our way home since 11:30 hours today. Big D had to literally stand on the last few fish to get them in the well. All three wells are packed with Yellowfin tuna from 120 to 240 pounds. We have an amazing amount of fish from 180 to 198 pounds. We have 12 to 15 fish over 200 pounds. This morning our bite stated at 04:00 hours with the first fish a 130 pounder on the PL68. Then it was Karl Fechner and John Angel following with a 150 and a 200, both on the PL68. From there on they were all 180 to 240 pounds. Mike Brown landed a 226 pound Yellowfin tuna using a skipjack. It was around 09:30 in the morning and the last fish to come aboard. There was no room in the wells so this ended up in the galley to be used for sushi and some delicious dinners. There were also several other fish caught on skipjack. Other 200 pluses were caught by Ken Yuen, Phip Klassen, Kathy Rounds, Mike Candland, and Harold Davis with a 240 pound fish. It was an amazing morning. Chris Klassen did battle with a Black Marlin weighing approximately 350 pounds. We have several passengers this trip who have never even made a 3 day trip. Phil Klassen and his 2 sons Matt and Chris along with their dear friend Marc Fabbri had never caught a tuna over 30 pounds. They learned from the crew on the 3.75 days of traveling down, sucked up everything anyone could teach them and all had a phenomenal epic trip and caught more tuna then they dreamed of catching. They all agree on one thing and that is that they will be using the gym on the regular basis before returning next year. Big "D" took many photos. Hope you enjoy them. The R/p crew. P.S. The crew hope Rae Rounds has a speed recovery.
