Trip 14 Aug 8-13 Accurate (5-day) Aug 11 Report

August 11th, 2017|Trip Reports|

Hello anglers,
We traveled north all night and this morning to get back up to the tuna zone. The weather has improved so we’re happy about that, but we don’t have much good fishing news.

We located a herd of common dolphin that had a school of yellowfin tuna associated with it. We are seeing fish and signs of fish, but they aren’t hungry for what we have today. We will continue to work hard and hopefully it will pay off tomorrow.
