I was fishing in a PB right there with you guys.I was in a black 29' pro line cc.I offered some squid to someone in a red malibu but he didnt want any too bad as I had a 30# YT right off the point there.WO bat rays all night but no C bass.
I did the Islander trip last year and it was great.If we would have had squid then we would have had mass YT fo sho. AWESOME WORK ON THOSE FLATTIES!

Hey T-Bone...I watched you reel in that YT...took awhile to get to gaff and looked like a sweet YT....I was on the Red XFActor near you guys trolling some Macs around....looked like a lot of nice fish in that area on the FF....I would have taken some squid We arrived too late and so squid wasn't an option for us

Dave,we got that boat up to 52kts coming out of the lee of CAT on the way home and I have the underwear to prove it!We also hooked and lost a small YT on a paddy on the way home.That CC is sick he has $125K into it.It has twin 250 verados.Going again soon,cant wait to do it again.There were boats selling squid,I plan on going next year again and it would definitely behove us to have squid maybe we can pitch in for a scoop of squirts...
Enough hijacking, B SLATE I WOULD GLADLY TRADE A 30#YT FOR A 30# FLATTIE at least once it hits the plate!

I was on the trip also. Brendon, you certainly earned those fish. The burrito to go was classic. There was no way anybody was getting you off the water.
Fishing for me was slow too, a few calicos, but no luck looking for the home run. As for the Islander and its crew, what a great organization. The captain, crew, cooks, everyone bent over backwards to make the trip enjoyable. I would recommend the ship for any trip, Tuna, Long Range, Mothership, whatever. They are top notch. It was nice meeting some faces that I see posting here, Tom, and Brandon, I have seen your screen names and now I put a face to the computer name. Lets keep in touch and go out locally when we can make it work. Jeff |

Tom -
Thanks for the invite. I'm heading to Catalina on Thursday AM to celebrate my 40th (Ouch). I'm taking the yak for 3 or 4 days of fishing with my cell and blackberry turned off. Keep in touch. I'd like to hook up again. JB |
