Mike Ramirez checked in from the Excel, "Yesterday we departed on the Melton International Tackle 9 Day Trip. We got a nice load of bait around noon. Today we are working our way down south, there is a little bit of breeze, 15 knots nothing too bad though. Hopefully we will find something to work with this afternoon. We'll be down around the Bonitas Islands area. We'll check back with you later. Wish us luck."
