"We used yesterday to travel up to the offshore bluefin grounds,"" observed Independence skipper Jeff DeBuys July 19, "and today was just what we had hoped for, as the tuna were cooperative and good grade 25 to 35 lbs. for the most part. We had 110 fish at the end of the day. The weather is flat calm, and so here we sit waiting for tomorrow, as we are going to finish the trip right here with hopes of another decent day."
