We had a pretty good day today. We were due in the zone at 8:40 AM but we didn't make that ETA. We got caught up in a stop a few miles prior that bit pretty well for us. Then we spent maybe too much time in that zone looking for another deal that never came. So we mosied on down and found another little zone which gave us our best stop of the day. That was a good stop. We caught a couple tuna reaching close to 40 pounds on that one. And then the life pretty much disappeared until late. So from lunch until 5 or so we didn't catch anything. Then wouldn't you know it, before dark we started seeing life again and stopping the boat and catching fish again. I guarantee you us catching fish right before dark and nothing since lunch wasn't a coincidence. The fish were down hanging low where we couldn't see them and came up late. All and all it was a good day. A nice little starter for our 10 day trip. 15-25 pound yellowfin mostly with a few we let go and some nearing 40.
The weather held up for us today too. It got a little breezy in the afternoon but then it came down late again. We're heading down tonight and we're going to try our hand at some yellers tomorrow morning and take it from there. We're hoping we get a weather window in the morning. It looks like we should but the wind should be with us tomorrow night on through hopefully only the next day.
I'm supposed to let mama bear know that your forever cub is kicking butt. He got himself a nice one and plenty others today. He won't stop yappin about how much he loves and misses his mommy though. Frankly, we're getting tired of hearing it.

Today was just one of those days for us. Well, I was controlling where we fished so I guess I just had one of those days. No, we're a team out here, WE had one of those days. We zigged instead of zagged. We turned left instead of right. During our zig, we found two kelps that were truly loaded with nice looking tuna according to my machines, but darn-it if they wouldn't bite. We have to figure they were kelps that got fished the day before and needed more time to recoup. During that time, there was a small area of kelps being found that were holding Dorado and mostly small tuna, but they were all taken by the time we made it in there. We tried to pick off one into the east and then north but we never could find much before we ran out of time. We scratched out a bit more than 50 mixed fish today so it wasn't a total loss. We just had one of those days.
The weather right now couldn't be better. We deserve it. We had a windy few days to start out the trip. All and all it was a great trip. A great group and good fishing. We'll be home tomorrow and back out for another 5 shortly there after.
As of now I'd pick Mark to win the "Biggest Loser" competition. Chef David made an amazing lasagna last night and Justin had a big ole piece while Mark ate a salad. Who would of thought our hill- billy, poor grammar speaking Mark "the crow" Clark would pass up lasagna for a salad. Next thing you know he may exercise during his way... OK, I can't even finish writing that it sounds so ridiculous.
We are continuing to see impressive schools. It seems everyday we are getting better responses out of them. Our last trip we had a good opportunity on the 60-90 pound fish, keeping 1 to 5 fish hooked for the better part of 4 hours. Getting a bite wasn’t the hard part but because we were forced to use our “finesse” gear we had to work very hard to land them. Hopefully the trend continues !
