Stopped the boat on multiple schools of tuna. Unfortunately they were still in a funk. When it was all said and done we landed 4 yellowfin. Back at it tomorrow.

~~Sep. 18
"Fixed up" is a good expression to describe our day today. We had very good yellowfin tuna fishing. We arrived to our destination shortly after breakfast and after about 1/2 an hour of searching we found what we were looking for. A school of 25-30 pound yellowfin. It bit for a little while before we had to relocate the school, which we did a few times. After that we found a different school of a more mixed grade of 10-30 pounders that we hit a couple times. Then we found a school of mostly 16-22 pounders that we did well off of. I think you get the point. We had a good day. Along with all the tuna we caught, we also managed 7 wahoo and 4 dorado. I'll say it again, we had a good day. We're feeling satisfied. Worth the days travel to get where we've been the last couple days, that's for sure.
The weather today was fantastic. Fan tastic. We'll be traveling tonight and sleeping in tomorrow. We're shooting to be fishing tomorrow afternoon. We'd like to top off on some yellers.
~~Sep. 7 "Feeling Better"
I can't say I had the highest of hopes for this morning. It seems like up and down this whole coast in the mornings has no current. As you know, no current = no fish. So we bailed on our yellowtail spot after 8:00 am and went kelping. I believe we found our first winner ohhh around 10:00 or so. It was good for 20 dorado. Another 1/2 hour later we found another that was good for another 20. Another 1/2 hour later... and so on and so on. We had a good day of kelping. Most of our passengers on board have never been in a dorado bite before today. It was jaw dropping for them. Lots of fun. We're feeling better.
Now we're going to catch our yellows. We're going to head into the coast for tomorrow and try and get a bunch of those. See? I write short reports on good days. Hopefully I keep them short.
