The St Jude Medical Center enjoyed a long drift in which we kept 2-8 fish hooked for several hours. 25 pass. 103 yellowfin tuna from 15-25 pounds. Belly hooked bait on 25 lb was very productive.

We figured it out. The Cortes Bank isn't good right now for bait, or game fish. Somebody had to be the guinea pigs. Why not the boat full of fish already. Check that off the list of places not to go for a while. One thing I can say about that place is the weather there was fantastic. Such a smooth ride around the area. Not a common thing for that place. If you aren't going to catch much you might as well do it in good weather. But if you've been keeping up, we've had a great trip. We're rolling in fat and happy.
It sounds like they're having a tough time keeping good bait in the receivers as of late so we're going to get next to the harbor early morning and try and catch a tank of mackerel for our next trip leaving tomorrow. 4 days. See you then.
Today we saw incredible sign of 25-40 bluefin tuna. Make sure you bring a 25 lb bait rod to go along with your 40,50 and 60 lb rod.
