Prospects to the west being a little shaky we opt for a southerly route in search once again of that elusive mega body of bluefin tuna. And if yellowfin are in the way so be it. We're happy to accommodate them too. Departing today on the annual Phenix Rods sponsored June five day run an abundance of time opens the door to both offshore and coastal variety. Happy to be out prospecting again look for reports and images to chronicle the voyage as it unfolds. Enjoy today's image pulled from the archive. Good times ahead.
