Well, as good as our luck has been thus far we couldn't pull it out offshore as the weather kicked up and just a few albacore and yellowfin tuna grabbed the jigs on occasion in the morning hours. After about ten thirty we found ourselves in the middle of an immense stretch of puke green water that took a significant portion of the afternoon to extract ourselves from. Combined with twenty to twenty five knots of wind and the typical accompanying sea, I have to admit that it was far from the ideal scenario for offshore success.

Such is fishing and such is the result of some prospecting missions that are necessary to map out potential productive areas. Thankfully, three days of steady scratching both offshore and at the island positioned us to absorb this final day of poor catching with relatively little pain as we have a fine catch of beautiful quality RSW yellowfin tuna and yellowtail in the hatch.

As such we return to Fisherman's Landing tomorrow with our pride intact and depart on our next Yo's tackle/Blackwater five day voyage ready to charge with both Captain Toussaint and I sharing the helm again. We will see if we can keep the ball rolling in the right direction as plenty of good potential remains throughout our range of five day options.
