As the sun came up in the morning we were in beautiful flat calm, bait filled,clean water, knowing that a great day of fishing awaited us. It took us until around 10 in the morning to get things located and when we did the bluefin acted like bluefin. Meaning that the visual show above the surface was well worth the ticket price and even though we were hitting spot after spot, it took the perfect presentation to elicit a strike. When all was said and done we landed ten 22-35# tuna. Our jackpot winner was young Sam Ernst with the 35 pounder.

On another note in another area the albacore made a pretty good showing for a couple of guys. This other area is in 1.5 day range. Unless things change substantially we will be chasing albacore on our next day and a half trip Tuesday night. There are still spots available
