It's going to be a walk down memory lane over the next week for readers that allow me to indulge in a little nostalgia. As I mentioned yesterday the archive of photos I opened unleashed a wave of amazement as I scolled through hundreds and hundreds of classics from our six years of tagging tuna and Wahoo in the Revillagigedos. For the next week I will continue posting from this treasure chest to both entertain readers/viewers and appease my need to remain current.
Photo number one features Dr. Dave Hall and Justin Greenberg doing the "Tuna Tango" during a sundown ripper in February 2007 on 120's - 220's at Socorro. Photo two features a duo of tuna that after being tagged paired up and swam around the boat while we continued to catch and release their buddies one after another. Photo three features Cabo San Lucas resident Mike McHatton and I in the skiff with what I recall was a tuna around 150 or 160. This was Mike's first voyage to the Revillas. He made all but one of the subsequent Revilla tagging trips following the off the scale scenery and fishing we experienced during this run. As it turned out it was a good call; this was only the tip of the ice berg!

5-16-201205/16/12 While searching through my archive of photos to satisfy another project I could not resist sharing some of these dandies from among the original Revilla Tagging voyages back in 2006 and 2007. It's a blast from the past but why not? Nice scenery and a unique perspective make these images worthy of sharing - if one appreciates Royal Star and fishing. Tracy soon resumes command of her office as Brian, Randy, and I nit pick and fuss with the boat...... Read More

5/14/12 The final photos from our tremendously successful April 2012 fly down/fly back feature Chris Pauly in fine form, and an image shared with us by master veteran Doug Taylor, who barely captured a flying Wahoo at the perfect moment. As for the future of the April fly down voyage I again want to mention that the 2013 run is already pushing capacity but does have at least a couple of spots open as of Friday. Today, or at least this...... Read More
