I was too f'in beat up, and it was a loooong day. I passed out and went to sleep. (it was like sleeping in a washing machine too).

Next time I think instead of leaving super early in the morning the better plan is to leave (well rested) around noon, get a few hours in trolling in the late afternoon then chunk all night and troll the AM bite till the afternoon and head back. The first day was a long rough day and it beat the hell out of me for fishing all night. My problem is I have trouble sleeping well the night before a big trip knowing that I have to wake up at 3:00am to leave.

We had the same results all day. Swords at night and gangs of tuna and albacore by day. Seemed everyone went off out there. The weeds were ridiculous yet when you got a clean patch the entire spread got ambushed. The night chunk produced HUGELY!! I love the canyons, the allisons, the swords and mahi, wahoo by the flyers whites and blues to keep you one your toes. Insane!! When you come home with the enormous cooler chock full you know you had a great trip.
