Here we go again. One last short trip of the year. My last trip as the captain. El Capitan, Master, number 1,el jefe, the chief... After this one Tommy comes out for 15 days. You'll still get my blogs though because I'll be here. Right now though I'm thinking about this trip right here that we're on right now. I'm feeling some dorado and tuna tomorrow. I'm hoping we get it done early and I have the problem of figuring out, OK, what next? That would be real nice. We'll see. I have her on course and I'm feeling prime rib tonight. I don't think I've eaten it in 2 years out here but tonight might be the night. I haven't been very healthy lately so what's one more drink on the Titanic right?

We had another great day today. Stoked. Things didn't start off so great though. Nope. Before 11:00 am things weren't so hot We only had a few fish on board. Things have been different at this place everyday. We just needed to figure it out. And we did. We figured it out. For the next few hours we picked away. One here, two there kind of thing with an occasional flury. Around two though things got busy. For the next few hours we were pulling on 14-25 pound yellows with 5-6 going all the time. I was just sitting up here in the wheel house with crew member Justin and we were reflecting on how much fun it was. We had a good day. Fish hold number 2 is full now.
We're going to hang tight on the anchor tonight and start off here in the morning. We wouldn't mind getting another taste of this before we see what other shananagans(still haven't found the spell check on here) we can get into next. We're thinking we"ll hunt for trophies and make Halibut drifts in the afternoon. Trophies being the 40-50 pound model yellowtails. I'll tell you about it tomorrow.
Capt. Matt and the boys are heading home with at least 6 bluefin over 100 pounds. Tomorrow’s trip is a definite go with a very light load. Most of these bluefin were landed on 40 lb flyline rigs. Mutu circle hooks from size 2-2/0 are recommended.
