It ended up being another good day with hits in morning and in the evening, the mid-day action was just about nonexistent. 41 good tuna fish came on board the Shogun. This morning started at O' dark-thirty on Tommie's watch, the guys were dropping jigs and weighted sardines down to the 50 to 100 foot level to get bit and more importantly to get it away from the school of skipjack and smaller tuna that are circling around the boat in the dark. For the more adventurous anglers, there were plenty of small skippies to fly line.
It was all about the chunk today, with so much skip jack and Small tuna around it's tough to fly line a sardine and get it past the smaller grade. Chunks, skipjack and actually any other bigger bait or jig such as the Salas PL 68 were working. By the time the dinner bell rang, our last fishing day total was 32 yellowfin tuna.
