We're back at it traveling south on our next ten day voyage headed up by Chartermaster Pete Tiernan who has assembled another fine group of anglers representing the northwest state of Washington. With a perfect mix of seasoned long range and novice anglers, this voyage promises a good time for all as potential for good catching and a much better weather forecast combine to provide a variety of attractive opportunities to begin and set up our strategy for this trip. We will see how it all unfolds.

For the present, we plan on a full day of travel and rigging tomorrow in preparation for our first destination where we will arrive in the a.m. on Friday. Needless to say we are keeping close tabs on the big fish action below and will be dedicating at least a portion, perhaps even a majority, of our effort in search of the ultimate glory targeting giant yellowfin tuna. We are pleased with our present position and the overall set up so now we leave it to the fish gods to determine how it plays out.

Look for reports to continue throughout the voyage with both Captain Toussaint and I sharing duties on deck and at the helm.
