Blood and death
 
I had a charter biff out on me for Wednesday because 6 am "was too early" so I made a couple calls and got a crew together and headed to the tuna grounds. Reports had been good so we had high hopes and weren't disappointed. The plan was to cast but the fish were hanging out down deep. We put out a 5 rod spread, w/ no outriggers, and it didn't take long. Something with teeth blew up on the long bait and cut us off. Prob a lil mako. We spent the rest of the morning trolling around and went 3 for 3 on medium bluefin from 54-60 inches. Victor and bill did a great job running the spread and we all got a fish to fight. Things went just about perfect. Pix when I get home later

Oh, soon for me up here...we had a pretty decent day. Ended up with bluefish on sabikis, a spanish mackerel on the sabiki. Water temps way up on the North Shore are already 70 degrees.

Not a day like Paul's, but Shawno and I pretty much played catch and release with many odd visitors. Wish the fish taking the bait were a little bigger. Blues are invading the North Shore....lots of change this week.

We have the old "rule of 15s" on my boat. I own the boat, pay the bills and drive. You can at least show up at the time we agree upon. If you are 15 minutes late I'M GONE AND NOT COMING BACK FOR YOU!!!!

Got jealous so went out with Bill yesterday and we boated a 48" quickly and headed for the barn before the winds kicked up.

HI bassballer...

I would be interested in being a buddy boat. I consider my 21 cc mako small so should fit in. Send me a PM with your ideas and time frame. I'm pretty flexible ...
