Most days are still pretty nice. Most of yesterday after another of our weekly rains it was around 86 most of the day. Mainly glass calm days with little swell. A few tailers and jumpers, but mostly blind strikes that we see coming in. We had one off half-day this week, but mostly getting 2-5 billfish a trip on half-days. A few dorado out there, with better numbers outside the reef with some floaters showing up. Friends lost one 40# fish yesterday. Few big ones during the tournament, with just a few weighable. 36# was the biggest. We saw a 50# fish. Heard of one 30# tuna caught. Some Blues pushing 300#. A lot of small Stripers. We had one mad rush of fish during the tournament. We got there late and still seemed to miss a ton of fish that day – my friend’s hook style and heavy leader I believe. We still came in third with twenty releases. First had thirty as they hit the hot spots twice. They lost a ton of fish too. Almost all of the 13 boats posted some good numbers. I think we’ll continue to see great action this entire year. I’m sure the yellowtail will come in good again also.
Tight Lines,
