Good evening, friends. We departed on an open party 5-day trip today with a healthy load of people and a healthy load of bait. Our weather traveling down is quite nice and we're looking like the weather is going to clean up for the next few days, so we're pumped. As far as the fishing outlook, one boat in the area today did equally phenomenal on bluefin and yellowfin. Straight up.We'll be in the area tomorrow and we'll chat you up tomorrow on our day.
Getting back to yesterday, we'd like to thank Paul Hess and his crew that tagged along with him this year. If I recall, this was Paul's 12th annual trip and we look forward to seeing him, his son, Matt, and the rest of the gang that comes back year after year (thanks for bailing, Boomhower. More bluefin and yellowfin for us.) Anyhow, It's a fantastic trip, one of my favorites every year, and we'll see y'all next year.
So that's all. We'll chat with you tomorrow.

Good evening from the Polaris Supreme. We're just starting off with our two week span of 1 1/2 trips. The first bait loading didn't go too swell. It looked like a rave party in the crowder when we loaded it. All sorts of fun colors with the silver shiny glitter(scales) being the dominate color with red coming in a close second. It is what it is. Hopefully we find something to use it on early tomorrow because I'm not so sure they will be swimming come lunch time. After that they'll just have to bite the dead bait which I have seen the yellowfin do countless times before. So here we go, Prime Ribbing it now, some z's in the future and then fishing it tomorrow.
ISLANDS ARE ON THE MEND ! 35 yellowtail (12-25 lbs) on the boat so far for just 20 anglers. Flylined Sardines on 25 & 30 lb monofilament has been the best. Stay tuned for a final report.

Long range fishing. We're back. We departed today on a wonderful 10 day trip. An ultra limited load 10 day trip. A fisherman's dream. We got some bait. We loaded up on half 6-8 inch beauts, and then half 4-6 inchers that will chum well and fish well enough. The weather right now couldn't be better. We're just rolling down hill enjoying life. We got some rest and did part 1 of our 3 part seminars. We did that today because we're fishing tomorrow morning. It's been pretty darn good school grade tuna fishing where we'll be in the morning lately, and we're going to try and get a starter kit tomorrow. We're just hoping the fore casted wind will hold up long enough for that. Yup, the wind is coming and it doesn't look like it's going to be very nice for the next few days. Oh well. It is what it is. We'll be doing some traveling through it on a downhill course but it's going to end up effecting some of our early fishing conditions for sure. But then it goes away and becomes lovely again for hopefully the rest of the trip. I'm looking forward to writing to you folks out there the next 10 days. I hope I have nothing but good things to write. Time will tell.
Fishing reports for black hills are updated each week, usually by Thursday morning. The reports are compiled by an outside contractor who receives the information from bait shops, marinas and fishing guides.
