Just the beginning we were hoping for with excellent albacore fishing to open the trip that set the pace as well as shook out the kinks preparing our excellent group of fishermen for genuine long range action ahead. The cat's out of the bag that Guadalupe has been the place to be and with a very good start in the hatch and plenty of time, we are following our desired game plan en route for the big island on the outside. We are all looking forward to testing our angling skills on yellowfin and yellowtail at the island but I must also admit that most of us are looking forward to avoiding the weather offshore that gave everyone their share of nautical excitement yesterday. With paradise on the bow we are anticipating what tomorrow will bring.
