"We arrived at Guadalupe Island this afternoon at 3 pm," wrote owner-skipper Art Taylor, "and got the anchor down in yesterday's hot spot. We saw a few fish but not quite the amount we were anticipating based on the reports from previous days. We did see some fish later in the day and we did manage to hook 10 yellowfin tuna and land five. They are all at least 50 pounds and we saw some bigger ones jump around.

"We also landed seven 25-pound yellowtail so we got a few fish for the effort today and we have two full days of fishing ahead. We are hopeful that being here the whole day and getting established at daylight the results will be better. I am glad to have access to this island again and we look forward to bringing other groups here in the future. Check with Celia for availability on 5 day trips or longer in the future."
