I'm sure all of you have figured out by now that our satellite data transfer is down and unfortunately will remain that way for the rest of the Clipperton trip. We should be back online by the 30th when we depart on an eight day bound for Alijos Rocks.
I did talk to Tim on the phone today and he was very excited about the fishing they have experienced so far. Most of the action has been on beautiful grade yellowfin in the 80-180lb class highlighted yesterday with four over the magic 200lb mark. In addition to the morning bite on the anchor, they caught several fish on the drift making for consistent action throughout the day. With a full load of bait onboard and plenty of time left, it looks like they will put together an excellent trip. I will keep you updated as I talk to Tim.
