Wore the crew our early today. The guys had some good jack jigging with a nice size class of fish. The tuna weren't falling for the jigs today so we broke out the anchor and caught our 100 triggers in pretty short order. Epic ball busting all day and a pretty day on the ocean....what more can you ask for?

Had an absolute blast jigging in absolutely terrible conditions. The seas weren't too bad, but the current and sharks were horrible. Crew toughed it out with a nice catch of big blackfins, plenty of jacks, grouper, false albacore, and fish heads that the sharks left us. Plenty of tuna on the jigs, jacks, grouper, kings, albies and more. Good times with a sufficiently worn out crew. Fishing was a bit tougher today with stiff winds and 78.7 degree water pushing in. Still caught plenty of jacks though. Fun times and a remarkably easy ride back in.
20 + knots of Northeast wind didn't slow todays crew down. limited out on triggers by 9 am, limits of nice groupers and red snappers, a bunch of seabass played catch and release amberjacks and back in the inlet at 3. Good times.
400 lbs of bottom dwellers and a bonus wahoo on a vertical jig. Back in early with happy customers with sore arms. 120 triggers, 30 beeliners and some other stuff as well.
Better fishiing today. 4 man limits of nice triggers and beeliners and some other groceries. Back home early with tired arms and 280 lbs. of fish.
A bit slow today. Could not get away from the beeliners. Released a metric shit ton of them. Still came away with 150 lbs. of groceries.
