What a perfect beginning to a September five day voyage with flat calm weather offshore and very good action on twenty to thirty pound yellowfin tuna with a decent shot of 10 - 15 # dorado in the mix. Following a long, fruitless morning we finally found the right zone and were well positioned for a move outside following two different afternoon stops that produced wide open fishing on this season's beautiful grade of offshore tuna.

With an already fine catch in the first RSW tank, we are ready to settle into the pursuit of trophy yellowfin over the next two full days. More beautiful weather is forecast to grace the effort and we could not be more pleased with our good fortune thus far. We will see if the fish gods continue to smile upon us as the true test of our skill, ability, and tackle is about to begin.

Look for tomorrow's report with the details.
