What a suprise today ended up being! The forecast was for 10 to 15 southwest and 20 % chance of afternoon thunderstorms. We fished about an hour and a half before the first squaw hit. then the next one soon followed. That one knocked us out of the box. I t was blowing 30 to 40 miles an hour and wouldn't let up. At ten o'clock we trolled head to the wind for a hour before pullingour baits in and heading for the dock. The first ten miles we could only make 10 knots. The squaw finally let up about about 2/3s of the way in. Thank goodness. For the short time we had fishing we did really good. Blackfins and yellowfins fille d the order for Bob, Jessica, Connor, and friends. If we could have stayed I am sure we would have had a great catch. I still have Friday and Saturday availabe for charter if anyone is interested. Capt. Dick
