CARBON COPY (021612)!!! I know I must sound like a broken record but that's just the way things are out here. Today was so much like yesterday that for the most part, only the names have been changed. To save you from looking back to yesterday's report, I'll briefly summarize. Like clock work the best bite of the day went off around 4 A.M. and ended at first light. My theory is that these are vampire tuna, and afraid of the sun light. The size was as it has been, with the majority of fish on the small size, a very few around 70, and as happened yesterday, one superior fish slipped in the mix. This morning it was a 170 pounder caught on bait by Jonathan Jeffers. During the day we once again scratched some excellent wahoo and Kathy Rounds caught probably the largest of the day on iron. The kite action was quite poor today, accounting for a few wahoo and some medium size tuna. The bright spot of the afternoon was a 150 pound bait fish tuna landed by Sterling Tanouye. The poor fish must have been very lonely as he came from a spot that otherwise appeared uninhabited. Even the daily fish count was almost identical to yesterday, with 59 tuna and 20 wahoo to show for our nearly round the clock efforts. Good fisherman never lose hope that the fish of a life time is just around the corner so there won't be any one slacking off here any time soon. Big D tells me to let every one know that this trip is indeed being digitally captured, and when satellite connections are strong enough there will many pictures posted. POEM OF THE DAY: I worked the tuna close in And he actually started to grin When stuck with the gaff He said with a laugh "Body piercing's just SO IN!"
