Shogun Sportfishing Fish Report 09-18-07

Bruce A. Smith

From June through Thanksgiving, the Shogun never rests. Back out today on a four day trip. Bruce is running the boat and he has us pointed back out to the albacore. Jackpot on the last trip was a 36# albie and we hope to do better than that. Looking out at calm seas it's easy to be optimistic. Those rough days are hard on both the boat and crew. We hope to find the fish how we left them late last night, eager to bite. Best case scenario is we throw on a wad of longfins then Bruce studies his options such as Guadalupe, San Martin or Cortez Bank. The Shogun will be in position around midnight, drifting till first light then its game on once again trying to locate a biting school. 30# gear, a 2/0 - 3/0 hook, and a lively sardine is the equipment list for tomorrow.
