"Yesterday the entire fleet that was fishing the lower yellowfin tuna grounds had great fishing." Noted American Angler's report for August 30. "When we woke up this morning it seemed like a no brainer that we would be busy this morning, but we were counting our chickens before they hatched.
By 8 in the morning we were still skunked and it quickly became 2 in the afternoon and we were still fish less. Literally we were just about out of time when we got on a bluefin deal and scratched about 35 fish, which didn't totally heal the wound but it sure helped stop the bleeding."
