Oct. 8
We all slept in today as it was our first day off from fishing in a week. We had a later breakfast of pork chop, bacon, eggs and hash browns. After that we broke down and cleaned all of our big tuna gear and put away the harnesses and the terminal tackle and things. Then the crew scrubbed the boat to a nice shiny color while the passengers watched a movie or two. Then we ate cheeseburgers and they were great. And after that it was nap time. So we're all rested and we have a clean boat. We still have a little bit of live sardine left over and some time to use them so we'll be rolling by some fishable waters the next few days and if we see something we'll be able to stop and give it a try whether it be wahoo the next couple of days or bluefin the day before we get back to San Diego. The weather today was as good as you could ever ask for. Flat calm seas and the sun was shining. Lovely. Dinner was wahoo enchiladas and that's all we have to report.

~~Sep. 7 "Feeling Better"
I can't say I had the highest of hopes for this morning. It seems like up and down this whole coast in the mornings has no current. As you know, no current = no fish. So we bailed on our yellowtail spot after 8:00 am and went kelping. I believe we found our first winner ohhh around 10:00 or so. It was good for 20 dorado. Another 1/2 hour later we found another that was good for another 20. Another 1/2 hour later... and so on and so on. We had a good day of kelping. Most of our passengers on board have never been in a dorado bite before today. It was jaw dropping for them. Lots of fun. We're feeling better.
Now we're going to catch our yellows. We're going to head into the coast for tomorrow and try and get a bunch of those. See? I write short reports on good days. Hopefully I keep them short.
Captain Ryan Bositan called in today at 12:50 PM with an audio update from the San Diego out of Seaforth Sportfishing in San Diego, CA. We are currently drifting right now. We have two 70 pounder Bluefin Tuna on the deck. We have dumped 5 or 6 of them. They are not coming in too easy today. We also caught a half dozen Yellowtail on the way to the tuna grounds.
RECOMMENDATIONS
A 25 pound outfit for fishing the kelps for Yellowtail
A flat fall outfit with Spectra and a 2 speed real for the Bluefin
We are fishing offshore tomorrow come and join us.
The Tribute out of Seaforth Landing in San Diego, CA checked in with us today.
