Today was kind of a disappointing day. We woke up catching yellowtail but it quickly stopped biting after daylight. We trolled up the place for several strikes on wahoo but the catching was slim. The ratio of hooked to land is never good with wahoo but this morning it was especially bad. We lost 3 marauders today. That's about what you lose when you have a 100 fish day on these things and we did not. Anyways, after that we weren't getting strikes anymore so we kept her rolling to a couple of spots I've been real excited about trying for the last couple of weeks and it really bummed me out. No wahoo, no tuna, not even any dorado. A few yellows was all. So we ran back up to this mornings honey hole and had a strike where the odds were in our favor. I'm not sure if we lost a fish. 8 lucky anglers caught a nice wahoo. We trolled it up till dark for nothing else. We're going to give it one more chance tomorrow looking in a different wahoo, dorado zone and if it stinks we're going to finish up the trip in the closer to home zone. We're keeping an eye on the storm so there's nothing to worry about ladies. I'll bring you hubbies home safe and sound.

Holy moly was it hot and humid today. Starting today early the sweat was on. My mom brought the little one down and the poor little girl was sweating worse than me. She probably doesn't care though. We left on our annual Bogart 2 day trip. So we fished a little this afternoon and we'll fish tomorrow. We got a couple tanks of anchovy today with just a few sardine mixed in. We have a bit of mackerel left over that we'll use. We fished for yellows this afternoon. We reached the honey hole at 4:00. Of course conditions did a complete 180. Current wise. The water was still blue and warm but the current was opposite to what the yellers have enjoyed here as of late. So we saw no sign of yellowtail. After a couple anchor jobs we gave up on them and anchored in tight to the kelp and we caught some assorted rockfish and bass and such. Now we're headed out to who knows where. I have a couple places in mind. I'm going to wait and here the evening reports from the other boats before deciding.
There is a few things as of late I wanted to tell y'all about that I forgot to. I finally saw the green flash! Kind of cool I guess. I wasn't looking for it this time. Maybe that's the ticket. I just happened to look over and poof, the sun turned green for a flash. The lightening show the other night was amazing. Especially the part I missed while I was in bed sleeping. And we saw a wave cloud I think. I think it was a wave cloud. It looked like a wave rolling through. Or a side ways tornado. There was 0 wind, and all the sudden that thing came through and it got super windy but just for 30 seconds or less and then it was gone and the wind went back to 0. Pretty cool I thought. Done.
7 Yellowfin Tuna 169 Skipjack Tuna. Weather is forecasted to be very nice this week. Don’t be part of the “day after” crowd. We still have plenty of good fishing ahead of us.
