Sunday August 30 report.                                                       TRADE SHOW BANNER.jpg

WOW what a wild roller coaster of a ride this last 10 days has been!!!!!!!!!!!

 The offshore Tuna and Albacore fishing could be best described as GOOD some of the fishing was as good as it get’s, BAD we experienced some bad weather that made fishing difficult at best. and ugly we had a couple of days that where just down right ugly in terms of fish producing.

Mike called in late last night to report that they where again on a high point of that roller coaster ride. After a good  day of catching albacore and yellowfin. He said that they where in a bluefin bite that started arround 7:15 PM and  had lasted into the dark with several fish still hanging.

    Just got off from this trip and was on that 7:15 bite. That’s where I experienced my first bluefin catch and it was GREAT.

    The crew does a top rate job in helping you bring it in and they really know their stuff. Adam and the rest of the crew took care of everything my group needed.

    Sometimes other boat crew members are jerks to people with lots of questions. This crew answered all of ours, helped us with tackle problems, untangled some f’d up lines, cooked our food, got our beers, cleaned the bathrooms, gaffed our fish perfectly, cut out the tuna “toro” without us asking, and served some kick ass shark tacos today!

    This was our first multiday trip and we will be back for more with you guys. Thanks for everything, you lived up to all of our expectations…
