We started our annual Phillip's Steel four day in the local albacore zone today and enjoyed a nice scratch on beautiful 25-40lb fish. It was great when this fish bit full speed earlier this season but I must say that angling to get a bite like we did today was a lot more fun. By the way, the fluorocarbon leaders were lethal.

We are traveling down this afternoon and hope to mix it up tomorrow with some different species. The weather is beautiful.
