Fish Report for 5-15-2007
After looking in the hatch at day's end yesterday, I realized I might have gotten a little carried away in my description of how poor the fishing was. What I failed to mention is that we have scratched a decent score of wahoo in between our efforts to catch the big yellowfin and the "skinies" are now adding up down below. I don't want to mischaracterize the situation however. We are having to earn every fish we are putting aboard through hard effort and time at the rail. The one encouraging note of the previous twenty four hour period is that we saw very, very good sign of big yellowfin around the boat in the dark hours and managed to put three beauties on board using the heavy jigs including a one ninety seven for Royal Star veteran Ron Ury. This interesting change has definitely piqued my interest is giving us something to look forward to when darkness falls tonight. In the meantime we will keep plugging away at the wahoo and hope these plentiful tuna will get with the program soon.

That is how we hope day one will unfold anyway and we are soon to discover...... Read More
