Polaris Supreme Trip Update 11-15-2013
The majestic blood-red sunset that we experienced at the end of our day today was simply magnificent. I'm not exaggerating. Allow me to set the stage. We've been struggling to find the fish that we've been looking for in sufficient quantities over the past few days, but we found EXACTLY what the doctor had ordered earlier in the afternoon. One of the crew perched in the crow's nest spotted some bird activity around a floating object in the distance. We trolled past the inflated "gas bag", and soon the entire boat erupted in mayhem. Virtually every bait to hit the water was quickly inhaled by the voracious dorado residing near the flotsam. Once we put the hurt on those good-size flatheads, the wahoo started to bite. We did well. Real well. Anyway, back to the sunset. Visualize a full moon rising in the east, casting glimmering silhouettes on the slight chop, as the sun is setting in the west, lighting up the entire field of vision with a crimson glow. It was simply magnificent. We fished until darkness interrupted us.
"Red sky at night ..." . so of course we're looking forward to another beautiful day out here tomorrow, weather-wise. The fishing is merely icing on the cake. Speaking of cake ... dinner tonight is a braised German chicken dish. Gotta go, I'm hungry!

Good evening. We spent our morning getting the Supreme and her passengers out of the weather for a bit, attempting to locate some coastal species for a morning while we gave the offshore scene a rest. We didn't quite connect like we were hoping but we did manage to catch a few yellowtail for our efforts, so all was not for lost. We made the decision to get back offshore and see what was going on and what was going on was scattered jig strikes on yellowfin tuna with some bait stops to go along with it. There is still some good hits to be had out here on both bluefin and yellowfin but we just didn't locate the right batch of fish. For tomorrow, we'll be fishing a little bit closer to home as we'll give it a try for a few hours and then have to book it for home. Wish us luck and sorry for the short report, the weather traveling up isn't the best conditions for typing but it's still okay to traveling. It could be a lot worse but we don't want that. Take care and we'll chat with you tomorrow.

We spent today offshore mostly looking to top off on dorado. There were 7 of us long range boats looking to do the same today. There was plenty of this warm water for all though. Unfortunately there wasn't enough kelps with fish on them for all. We were one of the more lucky ones. We didn't completely top off but we were only 20 fish shy. Along with the dorado we caught some small tuna off a few spots. 3-5 pounders. Now keep in mind most everyone on board have never fished out here in there lives. When everyone on board hooked one of these tuna at once, it was great. They were all so excited and they all just loved it. Don't worry, I very much encouraged the release of these fish. This was a great group of guys. Great. Super laid back and just enjoyed every minute out here. Caught a bunch of colorful jumping dorado, lots of yellers and even a marlin. I can't wait to have them back. And you know it's true too because I usually don't write that. I love all our passengers.
Tomorrow we get in and leave again for just 2 days this time. Hopefully we get out of there good and early and then et some fishing in tomorrow. I have no idea what we'll do after that though. Time will tell.
