Nice grade of Yellowtail on kelps, with really good sign of Tuna that were hard to catch. Also more Dorado showing on kelps, but the 2 we hooked, found their freedom.

Good afternoon everyone reading. It was a turn around day today. Everything went smooth. We departed on our annual "Lets Talk Hook Up" 4 day trip this afternoon with a full load of passengers. The bait thing went smooth today as well. Good looking bait for us today. We're thinking we'll have no bait issues this trip unless we run out catching tons of bluefin but we welcome that. That's the best problem to have out here. It sounds like a slow day today in the bluefin grounds. I'd rather it be slow while we're at the dock then when we're out fishing though. We'll see what happens tomorrow and take it from there. The weather now is lovely but the weather forecast appears to be less then good. Let's hope they're wrong about that one. It's just about time for our tackle seminar followed up with the prime rib so I have to go.

Today went well I thought. Starting with our ride up last night. As good as it gets. Flat calm. The only swell was a long swell that would slowly, gently rock the boat. We slept like babies. In fact, I think I woke up with my thumb in my mouth. I let everyone sleep in if they chose to. We didn't start fishing until just before 9:00 in the morning.
We were pleasantly surprised with the fishing. It was good. We tried for some more yellows, for us, and to check out the grounds for future trips as well and they bit well. We kept 2-4 going the whole time until we drove away from them. "We left them biting". Our favorite thing to say out here. After that we ran up and made a few drifts for some Cod. We had the time and I had a few requests so we caught a few rockfish.
Now we're headed home. The crew's scrubbing the boat, I'm writing this, I think there may be a poker game going on, and we're just hanging out and enjoying ourselves and the beautiful ride up. The wind and swell are on our stern. That storm out there is blessing us with a lovely ride home. Its like we're riding down but we're going up. Timing is everything. Sometimes it all comes together and this trip was one of them.
So we'll be home bright and early tomorrow and of course we'll be headed back out a few hours later.
