Hello friends. The weather could be a lot better offshore, that's for sure. It's bumpy, it's windy, it's cold and wet - the people are not digging it at all. It's just a bad time for everyone when the boat is rolling back and forth, bouncing up and down, the wind howling, people are sick and it's just an unpleasant deal all the way around. Buuuutttttt, this problem does not exist when you're in the calm lee of an island and that's where we are, so we're pumped. Our only problem with the weather right now is sun burns and kelp flies. Needless to say, we're happy we made the move inside and with the weather still forcasted to be up offshore, we're going to give this island weather another day and brave the elements of flat calm weather and endless sunshine.
As for the fishing; it wasn't hot and heavy but it was a nice pace for the gang to enjoy. We had a few morning drifts where the dropper loops were getting bit but the seals ended that party pretty quick. So, we decided to make a move for less local harassment and we had ourselves a nice drift around lunch time that really made our day. a fly-lined sardine was the ticket to capture a nice 'tail and the fish ranged from 12-18 lbs. Quality sized fish and the kids and adults alike were having themselves a ball. After our drift dried up, we toured around various spots to no avail but were excited about the prospects of tomorrow.
Like I said, we'll be here for one more day tomorrow and come the evening time, we're going to have to start working our way up the line and try to make it the smoothest ride we can going home. With that, we'll chat with y'all tomorrow. Have a great day.

It was awesome yellowtailing this morning. As soon as we got to the grounds it was on and that time was dark 30. That's right. It wasn't even daylight yet and we were gettin um. Nice big fat yellows. As soon as daylight hit we were still gettin um and we kept gettin um for a few more hours too. And after that, we made a move and we were gettin um there too. So lunch time came around and Chef Shawn made yellowtail sandwiches and guess what, they were awesome. After that we worked up up up to get us in position for bluefining tomorrow. The weather coming up is not good. As I write this at the Charger halftime my legs are 6 feet apart for balance. Sometimes my butt is against the wall and I can barely reach the keyboard. The weather man is calling for better weather tomorrow. Should we believe him?

Today was just one of those days for us. Well, I was controlling where we fished so I guess I just had one of those days. No, we're a team out here, WE had one of those days. We zigged instead of zagged. We turned left instead of right. During our zig, we found two kelps that were truly loaded with nice looking tuna according to my machines, but darn-it if they wouldn't bite. We have to figure they were kelps that got fished the day before and needed more time to recoup. During that time, there was a small area of kelps being found that were holding Dorado and mostly small tuna, but they were all taken by the time we made it in there. We tried to pick off one into the east and then north but we never could find much before we ran out of time. We scratched out a bit more than 50 mixed fish today so it wasn't a total loss. We just had one of those days.
The weather right now couldn't be better. We deserve it. We had a windy few days to start out the trip. All and all it was a great trip. A great group and good fishing. We'll be home tomorrow and back out for another 5 shortly there after.
As of now I'd pick Mark to win the "Biggest Loser" competition. Chef David made an amazing lasagna last night and Justin had a big ole piece while Mark ate a salad. Who would of thought our hill- billy, poor grammar speaking Mark "the crow" Clark would pass up lasagna for a salad. Next thing you know he may exercise during his way... OK, I can't even finish writing that it sounds so ridiculous.
