So we fished today on our open party 1.5 day trip. What a morning. We got on a school early. In the dark. I saw them on the sonar, then stopped, then looked out the window and there they were, swimming around under the lights. So I dropped a bait in the water and a minute later I had a tuna on board. So I woke up the crew and the passengers and we commenced fishing. Before the sun came up we were finished. I mean we had our daily limit of yellowfin so we passed the school off to another boat and moved on. The reason we were able to get it done so quickly this morning was because the fish were small. Unfortunately that's what the plan was all along. The good grade tuna schools are missing here in 3 day range at the moment. we've seen this before. It's no surprise during a tuna season. I don't believe it's over. Just temporarily down.
So we wanted to get our tuna out of the way early and then concentrate on finding dorado kelps, but we never found too much for dorado kelps. The wind blew too. It was perfect weather this morning, but by lunch it was blowing a good 25 knots. Not comfortable. Thing went back down though. It didn't stay windy. It's nice now.
We get in tomorrow and we're going to take a couple of days off so we'll see you when we see you. And by that I mean write and read.
When we go offshore on these trips we are basically looking for 1 good school. 1 good bluefin school if itβs in the right mode will stick with the boat all day and provide plenty of action. With that being said, today we saw 4 nice schools but only managed to land 1 tuna.

Good evening everyone. We wrapped up our trip today. And it was an interesting day. First off the weather continued to produce variable wind. Flat calm and gorgeous. Onto the fishing. As you know we almost had no sardine today. We used it well though for the time we had it. The bluefin floated today. Everywhere you looked there was a 30-50 pound bluefin gently rolling on the glassy surface. Other times you would see the whole school swimming on the surface. It definitely had that feel to it. We caught 30 fish from 30-50 pounds this morning before we ran out of bait. For the time being it was great but sad when we ran out. We still had a couple tanks of big mackerel to use and Tommy had it figured out where we would use it. So we made a few hour move and it didn't take long after we arrived to the honey hole before we were gettinum. Big yellowfin. 45-65 pounders. It felt like we were anchored up at Alijos Rocks when the tuna were around there. Those fish liked our mackerel. We caught a few over 20 of those bad boys before they quit biting. I wish we could be in 2 spots at once.
So we have a 1.5 day trip leaving tomorrow afternoon Aug. 27 and we want you to go. Let me try and talk you into it. Now this is me speaking truth. Not blowing smoke at you. The weather still is fore casted to be great great. Variable wind. Now I told you we had great fishing this morning while we had bait. A lot of the boats that had just left on there trips that had bait all day drifted all day. Not all but a lot. They drifted and they caught. It's a good time to go fishing I'd say. Good grade, good fishing. Let us take you fishing, feed you great, show you a good time and hopefully the bonus, catch lots of fish.
