Hello again from the Independence. With poor fishing yesterday we were hard pressed to make the most out of our morning we had left to finish the trip. We were not disappointed, as the sign of big tuna was just awesome this a.m. We had lots of chances at bigguns and had a few heart breaks, BUT when the dust settled we had put together a beautiful catch, 36 tuna, 3 cows, another 10 were 190 to 199 lbs. and many 150 to 185 lb.ers and the rest were stock grade 80 to 100#. Big fish honors today went to Jim Poore with 225# tuna, Clarence Becker with a 230# fish, and Steve Vetrone with a 205# as well. The sign of big fish was as good as I've seen in a while, too bad we had to leave at 1100 hrs for San Diego. We will try to put some pictures up on our FB page in the next few days. Everyone caught fish this morning, and is now relaxing with the nice ride home. Sea ya later, Jeff
