Tough fishing today with the sharks taking a big toll on us. We were on a good spot of nice grade Tuna, but the toothy critters were again in the mood to eat some fresh Yellowfin any chance they had. We did get some good ones through the gauntlet however and had a fun time doing so. The helium balloon was the ticket for us today as for whatever the reason the fish just didn't want the kite. Fly- line also accounted for many hook-ups as well. We are on our way North and will be looking for more kelps and trolling along the way. Wish us luck. "The Intrepid Team"
