As I write this, it's the morning of the 14th. When I was awakened for my watch and day at 3:05 this morning I couldn't tell if we were running or if we were anchored up in the bay. You can't really hear the engines from where I sleep but I couldn't tell from the ride because it was so nice going up last night. I seriously asked Tommy as he was still up reading.
The fishing slowed down for us today as fishing does from time to time. The bluefin didn't bite as well this morning nor did the yellowfin. There was still yellowfin to catch this morning and there were some good scores had in the afternoon away from the bluefin zone but we caught enough yellowfin yesterday and hung out in the bluefin zone for a chance at some more of those trophies in the afternoon/evening. We still had a decent morning. I mean we still caught 14 nice bluefin and some yellowfin, but the bf's never made it back around for the afternoon snack fest. We had a great trip and will be off loading a nice catch tomorrow morning at 6:00 and turning right back around shortly after that for 5 days.
One thing I forgot to mention yesterday was the amount of these toad bluefin being caught on jigs. More then I have ever seen ratio wise but that could also be because more people were doing it but that could be because it was working well. The shimano butterfly jig is the jig that caught most of our jig fish. But that could be because that's what most people were using but that could be because it was working so well. And 90+ percent of those were caught on the sink. No retrieve necessary except to bring it up to sink back down. They loved it. So if I were coming out this year I would throw a couple of those in my box.
PS- Shimano gave me nothing to write that last paragraph. It just worked.

Well hello all. We departed today on a 5 day trip with many regulars on board and so far a good load of bait which is key to starting off a successful trip. As I'm writing this I still don't know where we're going tomorrow. On the one hand I'm listening to the boats on the radios and hearing them finding schools of bluefin in the 15-30 pound range that aren't biting well, and on the other hand there is a whole lotta 50-70 pound bluefin that are unaccounted for. 2 weeks ago it was everywhere and then it vanished. It's somewhere out here and we want to find it. I'll make the decision at dark whether to stop short for the local bluefin or keep her rolling down in search of the bigger grade BF. Tune in tomorrow to find out where we end up. I'll be curious myself. For now that dinner bells getting close to ringing and we're looking forward to that prime rib.
Drew and the Supreme team.

We fished today with all our buds. Obviously it was the best game in town. We had boats from San Diego up to Ventura all nestled in sharing the same honey hole. 15 of us to be exact. It all worked out though. It was a nice spread of fish. Everyone was able to scratch. Scratch, scratch, scratch. From after daylight until after lunch. Then things went dead for the most part, so we pulled anchor and found a nice school to drift on. After a long drift the day was pretty much over. We drove around, made another anchor job but the fish were done. Just like us. We're done for the week. It's up to you whether or not we fish this next up coming weekend. Halloween weekend. See you there?
Oh, the fish today were tuna. Yellowfin. Smaller. We had a couple handfuls of 30-40 pounders first thing, but as soon as the current picked up, for some reason the bigguns split. So we stayed busy with the smaller ones. Veal. Oh, and they found sardine again. Loaded up. So don't worry 10 dayers.
