Blue water 85 degrees and almost there. Fishing action photos to follow starting tomorrow. We will start out trolling for wahoo and tuna and explore looking for bait concentrations and a good place to anchor up and chum up big tuna depending on wind and tide.

A whole lot of tackle

As the long range boat steams to the fishing grounds the anglers ready their tackle. My guess is over 300 rods and reels aboard. Tomorrow we set up terminal tackle leaders hooks wind-ons and set drags. Today eggs Benedict for breakfast cheeseburger for lunch and special chicken for dinner.
