The drizzle stopped just after we got underway, and after the fog burned off it was an absolutely gorgeous day on the ocean with absolutely flat calm, sunny, t-shirt conditions. The rockfish continue to chomp, with limits of mostly browns, reds, and a few olives and blues thrown in. Congrats to Bernie for catching his personal best 11 pound cabezon. I think that's the biggest cab landed so far this season. Nine lingcod were also landed, too, but I didn't get the report on the size. Albacore update: Yes, albacore are being caught. I believe the report is that they are about 45 miles away outside the 601 area. Looks like we might just be in for some good tuna fishing real soon. Bob and I are going on our 13th annual five-day long range on the Royal Polaris out of San Diego from July 30 to August 4, so any albacore trips onboard the Queen of Hearts will have to wait until we get back. While we're away the Queen of Hearts will continue to run with Capt. Randy Bankord at the wheel, the second half of our "A Team", with Heather and Jimmy on the deck as normal.
