Excel has finished angling on the Ralph Mikkelsen Big Fish trip. This year's trip honored the late Bill Poole, and according to skipper Justin Fleck's final report from the fishing ground, is on the way home.
"Fishing has slowed down here the last couple of days," wrote Fleck April 21, "but we were still able to scratch. There has been no sign of the bigger fish around the shallows, everything seems to be out in the deep water. Robert Orth did manage to entice one cow on the fly lined sardine. His fish went 209 pounds on the boat's certified scale. Today is our last day of fishing and then we will be heading up the line toward San Diego."
