Hi folks;
We continue going south with very nice weather. Ten knots of breeze, sunshine and 77 degrees water. Our passengers enjoyed a short seminar reviewing safety when fishing Wahoo and also fish fighting techniques. In the afternoon some read while others played Texas Hold-em and watched movies.
We will arrive at Hurricane bank at 03:15 hours and we are hoping that our next report will talk about how good it is and include some pictures. Wish us luck please. The R/p crew.

Hi folks;
Weather today was absolutely outstanding. Seven to nine knots of breeze all day, clear skies and sunshine.
We did another seminar this morning, and our passengers did more rigging today, with much assistance fro the crew. In the afternoon Billy and D made wind-on leaders, and Cole, Brook, and Jesus made new gaffs and sharpened the old ones.
Frank and Jesus also did some tutoring at the rail to a 13 year old, Zachary Schenk and Maryanne Olley on how to pull on big Yellowfin up on the bow and on the stern.
We will do a final seminar on Sunday morning and we should arrive at Hurricane around 03:00 hours, Monday morning. The R/p crew.

Hi folks;
Weather here is quite nice with an 8 knot breeze and overcast skies.
This morning we had a fun seminar starting our preparations for Hurricane bank fishing. It appears that we have a wonderful group who are very excited and quite anxious to learn.
For those of you wondering why we decided on Hurricane bank it was a decisions I made after discussing it with the group and letting them vote on it. As you know the availability of Yellowfin tuna in the 80 to 200 pound class has been very tough. This group wants a shot at fishing for Yellowfin tuna over 100 pounds, therefore we chose to put all of our eggs in one basket and go for Hurricane bank.
We should arrive at the bank just before daybreak, Monday morning and fish 3 full days. Hopefully it will work out well. Frank and the R/p crew.
P.S. Mike Staton who is our charter head and rep, for Davis Boasts is doing a great job. T-shirts for all yesterday, and today, giving away many prizes such as Marauders, Blackwater fluorocarbon, and Owner hooks. Being a very knowledgeable angler, he is also helping some anglers prepare for fishing larger Yellowfin tuna.

Hello everyone;
Weather continues to be out of this world. It has just been a wonderful trip for fishing and weather both.
We finished our trip out today with a handful of Yellowtail and Red Rock-cod. Everyone aboard has had the trip of a life time and they all look forward to coming back next year, and we look forward to that.
Our final fish count:
Yellowfin Tuna: 86 Wahoo: 145 Dorado: 120 (limits) Grouper: 3 Yellowtail: 120 Marlin 100 (all released)
Red Rock-cod: 100
Man what a trip. We will arrived to Fisherman's landing at 06:30 hours, and we are hoping for a fast turn-around. I don't know what Frank has up his sleeve, but I will be there to see what's up. Until tomorrow, good luck and good fishing. The R/p crew: Roy Rose, Dharyl J. Shelbourne, Bill Gadke, Rafael Torres, Brook, Landazazo, Cole Bryon, Jim Guyot, and Anthony Sardina.

Hello everyone;
Well our weather continues to be wonderful. Flat seas, clear skies and warm days.
We continue to move north, fishing all the way up. We made a few stops for Yellowtail, but with a lack of current, the bite was a bit off. We did manage to tag a few Yellowtail up to 25 pounds. With the Yellowtail off the bite, we made a move and caught some quality Calico bass.
I think that our passengers had move fun catching the Calico Bass, then the Yellowtail. Captain Roy even got into the action.
With one morning left, we are heading north and try our luck for some Yellowtail or may even some Rock-cod. With that in mind, I will close for now and we will keep you posted on our upcoming events. The R/p crew.

Hello everyone;
Weather today was beautiful. Flat seas, clear skies, and lots of sunshine.
Wahoo are on the bite. We had an excellent day of Wahoo fishing. Most of the Wahoo were in the 40 to 45 pound range. We did catch a handful of Yellowtail, but the Wahoo was the big picture for today.
We departed the Wahoo area and started heading up to the Yellowtail area. We should arrive there in the morning. We have high hopes for tomorrow, so wish us luck and we will keep you posted on our upcoming event.
If you are going on our next 10 day trip, you should gear-up on the gold Raiders, that was the hot ticket for the skin this trip.
We have a few opening on our next trip, if you have the time, we have the space. Give our office a call at (619) 226-8030 and talk to Scotty or Andrea'. Frank will be running the next two trip, so this is your chance to fish with Frank. So until tomorrow, good luck and good fishing. The R/p crew.
