I will be there next Thursday for the weekend but it looks like a bad weekend to go. Hurricane Rick looks like it will be blowing pretty hard in S.C. . It does Sounds like things are picking up though. Looking forward to some fishing if the weather cuts me a break.
Hurricane Rick can BLOW ME!!! Mike

| Hopefully things will be clear by Friday. I don't need Rick cancelling my second wedding after the swine flu postponed the first. I'd rather be here than expecting to fish Cabo. A little warm at times today and a beautiful day on the water. We passed dozens of dorado with many misses on the popper and five fish in the box. Had one sail half-way in. Most of our dorado were just off the the end of the reef and down from it. The sail again was on the end of the reef. Now we're fishing! Bring on the tuna and marlin!

| I think Steve IS RIGHT for maybe once in his weather carreer. although he isnt going to say it The little disturbance called Rick to the south with the pressure from the north could produce epic fishing over the next two weeks I will be there tommorrow

| Fishing is off the charts. Took a ride half way across and picked up a few nice dorado at 30 miles and lost a bruiser. Headed south for an hour and was watching the spread and a huge fin came out of nowhere and we were hooked into a fat blue marlin. Came right to the boat in 10 minutes but then decided to haul ass for another hour or so. Finally beat the fish and it was still hyper boat side. Still 30 plus miles outside and found the entire fleet of porpoise cruising South with a zillion birds fling cover. We spent a half hour just catching them. By the time we got there everything settled down. We zig zagged through the school for a half hour before finally getting hit. Our first yellowfin of the fall. Just minutes later we had 5 on and landed three and sawed off a brand new Black Bart Jet. We picked up one more fish and set the cruise control to MSC. Truly as good of day as I could ever ask for with my kids. Cole at six years old landed a thirty pound tuna in the harness pretty much unassisted other than keeping him from flying out of the chair. These are the most epic blue water days on the calender. Good luck to all....... Jarrod

Glad to hear that the fishing's been so good, although now I'm jealous and depressed that I have to be stuck here in Phoenix 
Good luck this weekend, Mike, wish I could join you!

| We found a lot of sails yesterday afternoon at 30-35 mi. on a 215. Unfortunately we had about as good a ratio of successful releases at the tournament, landing only one. At least six were on for up to a minute. We found one dorado and had a marlin hit four lines. Never found what we were really out for but we were the only ones looking at the time. Pilo's catch from the day before is unpublishable. Hopefully the hurricane pushed the seiners onto the Pacific side for shelter. I guess they're taking a hit on the populations around Cabo. Not sure what was found today.

| Is getting spooled caused by lack of faith in angler, line and equipment, or just being scared (captain) to back the boat up and take on a little fricken salt water!? Kryptonite has reverse doesen't it? With that, is it easier to get spooled in a big boat or smaller boat? Tell Wade and Judy I said Howdy, thanks. Has Darryl been down there lately? El Nino might carry your pelagic season to Thanksgiving Bro.

The fish dove from what I heard. Even if they cleared all the lines and tried to back down over the fish, the belly in the line would have been the problem. Try to keep the same drag tension as your one-third of the breaking strength strike/ full drag tension, and quickly learn first hand the physics of drag on the end of the line not translating tension in the belly of the line to the same drag tension at your reel. We had a 7-800# Blue on our 80# in Hawaii rip off 450+ yards while we cleared the lines. I reset the tension to 15# at 300yds. I thought the rod placed in the customrer's chair needed a bit more tension to keep the hook set and to tire the fish out a bit. So what's the call? Hope that you get a chance to back down over the belly after letting the fish run with a lighter drag, or keep the tension at 'strike' and say the fish (?) broke the line? I learned my lesson.
(Lesson learned last week... teach the novice with a ballistic but mellowing fish on the end of the line when to re-increase the tension when the belly can safely be taken out .... well, that's fishing and why we have fish stories.)
