A very encouraging beginning with very good conditions and good sign of small and medium grade tuna in the area where the previous two voyages have produced nothing. The fact that conditions have changed so drastically and that we are seeing good indications of small fish leads one to believe that the big fish are around and our time will come. We did see several cows late in the day but did not have anything in the bag to show for it. Aside from plenty of small tuna and some nice snappers we came up dry on big fish but once again I think that this will change. With gorgeous weather, a plentiful bait supply, and lots of time we will see if my prophesy is on the mark.
