One thing is certain after our afternoon passage through the "yellowtail triangle" - there is no shortage of 15 - 25# "forkies". As we worked our way down we drove over spots of breaking fish and bird schools hovering over huge color spots literally for miles and miles. We occasionally stopped to harass a few with our surface plugs that they were all too eager to consume. Based on what we witnessed, I have to believe that we are again in store for some phenomenal yellowtail action this spring and summer. Either as the main event, or as a supplement to our offshore tuna effort, the unbelievable quantity of yellowtail around during the past five or six years has made for plenty of successful days of fishing, or even entire voyages. This year will be no exception.

Needless to say we enjoyed an epic meal featuring the day's catch prepared by Chef Drew Rivera while continuing the southerly trek. We are tending to few small projects on the way down in addition to rigging the boat for fishing after our six weeks of down time. As I mentioned yesterday - it sure feels good to be getting back to what we know and do best.

For now everything is in order and we are on schedule for a early afternoon arrival in Cabo San Lucas harbor on the 17th. I will post a more precise ETA tomorrow morning for all of you arriving for the voyage. Have a fine day and look for more thoughts tomorrow.
