Capt. Mark DeBlasio, Capt. Peter Doran and Ryan DiBaggio took out an open boat trip Sunday to Monday and started right where we left off Friday afternoon down around the 150/050 area. Trolling in the early afternoon did not do too much but the fish came up around 6pm and from 6pm to 9pm they troll 25 yellowfin. They put 4 in the box with 2 in the 40 pound class. Canyon Runner rainbow green machine bars, and Canyon Runner purple/black squid bars in 9" squid were the key.

At night it seems that the mako fishing has slowed as none were seen. They did pull a brown shark or two but nothing to write home about.

Up on the troll in the morning they got the bite they were looking as a big-eye exploded on the lure trolled between the two Canyon Runner spreader bars but it never came tight. This was at 6:30am and they spent the rest of the day lamenting about the one they missed. What made the rest of the day easier is they caught another 31 yellowfin ending up with 11 in the box with 3 over 40 pounds, 3 around 25 pounds and the rest around 30 inches.
