Hello all and welcome back. Or welcome me back or... you know what I mean. I'm back. 5 days off and I'm back on the water and reporting to you. I met the boat at the dock at 6:30 in the morning and was pleased to see the stern deck loaded up with tuna. A good catch they had. Well we off loaded everything and everyone, went and changed oil and put enough fuel on board to last us a while and left on our Bogart construction 2 day charter. We got a good enough jump to fish a few hours before dark in the latest hot tuna zone but hot it was not. The fishing there in the morning was good but it took a dump late morning and on. We wound up catching 3 tuna before dark. Obviously we're hoping for a good morning tomorrow and we're also hoping the bite stays on for longer then it did today.

Hi friends. Yellowtail fishing was off the hook this morning -- or, on the hook, depending on which way you look at it. Fifteen to twenty-eight pound fish just kept coming over the rail and we also had a few flatheads as well. It was all you could've wanted on fly-lined sardines, yo-yo jigs, and surface jigs too but we only took a few boxes to break up the morning and from there, we ventured offshore with the hopes of finding something floating for dorado and wahoo.
Let me tell you, trying to locate kelps in eighty degree water is a difficult task and although we did get lucky and found a couple scraps, they weren't holding all that much. However, we did troll up a few legitimate ball-slappers, a marlin (healthy release), and one really nice wahoo at dusk caught by Mike Henry. His wahoo looks to be in the fifty to sixty pound range and he coaxed that fat skinny into latching onto a purple and black Marauder. Good going, Mike.
For tomorrow, we'll be fishing for all kinds of species but our main target is wahoo. We'll see what tomorrow brings. Our weather is just splendid and the all-day bronze-a-thon continues. I'm starting to look like Hulk Hogan out here. Supreme guns. Later.

Remember yesterday when I said we would find our dorado kelp? Well we conquered that quest. I tell no lies. An hour or so after breakfast, maybe 2, we found a kelp loaded and we went to battle and overall I think we won. I mean we caught exactly what we wanted. Beautiful mahi mahi. After that we went back to travel mode and we'll be arriving to our slip in San Diego tomorrow at 0800 hours. We ate some of that mahi for dinner tonight while we watched a slide show of all the pictures taken this trip presented to us by Tommy. Everyone misses there wives and they all told me, "Drew, I couldn't spend another minute without my wife". That's why this trip was 15 days. It's the maximum amount of time we can spend without our wives.
So we tie up tomorrow and that's the way we'll stay until November 9th, when we'll be departing on a 10 day trip. So until then, I'd just like to say how much I'll miss writing to you all. Stay classy and thanks for stopping by, but mostly, stay classy.

I'm back. After taking the last trip off and spending some quality time with the fam I showed up this morning to meet the boat at 7:00 and was greeted by an impressive catch by the Chapparo group. We did the turn around thing, got some bait and we were in the fishing grounds by 3:00 this afternoon. It sounded like we missed most of the action while we were dockside. It was mostly a morning bite. We had a few stops this afternoon for over a fish per angler so we can't complain about fishing on a departure day. We're currently drifting in nice weather and we'll be starting off here in the morning.
A few nice yellowtail and very fun calico bass fishing. Flylined sardines, surface iron and MC Swimbaits.
