Hello Anglers, Today we fished 90 miles south of San Diego. There was some good fishing for several boats in this area today. Unfortunately we had to work for every fish. We ended up with 42 albacore and 1 bluefin tuna. The encouraging thing is the distance between the areas of fish–it’s about twenty miles with signs of albies throughout. The weather is good–less than 15 knots of wind and a 4-6 foot swell. Hopefully we can get the fish located early and stay on them all day. More tomorrow, Capt Art
At 10 a.m. the boat had 15 albacore aboard, in the 20# size. They pick up a few at every stop and they’re in the “tuna zone.” We’ll check in again tonight.
The 3 p.m. update is 23 fish aboard and bait fish on the line now!
Anglers: It’s mid-afternoon and we have 17 albacore and 2 yellowtail so far today. The weather is good out here at 60 miles from San Diego. The albacore are both troll and bait fish and are in the 20-22# range. We’ll be fishing until dark and hope to land some more for our 24 passengers. Capt Aaron

Yep–we have eight albacore aboard! We are about 150 miles away from San Diego. One fish was caught on the troll (this one was about 22#) and ther others are bait fish. We’re hoping for more! More later, Capt Art
We finished up our yellowtail fishing at Cedros Island this morning. Everyone has as much yellowtail as they want! We also caught a few nice halibut–Scott Carr, Tony Marasco, and John Stanley were the lucky anglers there. We are heading north to place ourselves in the bluefin tuna and albacore zone. Wish us luck as we try to land the first albacore on our deck for 2007. More later, Capt Art
