Just getting started here departing on our annual Nakamura/Myers seven day voyage in fine weather and following seas. South is our heading; fishing is our objective; catching is our goal. Coastal and/or offshore we'll be engaged soon through Friday in an effort to compile a catch while treating this fantastic group of anglers to a genuine long range fishing experience. Here we go!

Today's image features a school of Bigeye on their way to the cannery courtesy of David Itano and ISSF. If you can't tell the difference between yellowfin and Bigeye tuna this image does a great job of demonstrating the profound morpoligical features. The fatter, more compact, robust bigeye are prized for both fresh and canning throughout the world. Looking at these beauties it's no wonder why.
