Default Official Update Thread.

Should have done this earlier, but I didn't think about centralizing it.

3 boats pre-fished today.

I tried to time them coming back to the docks, but couldn't.

Dawiggs and the Island Runner caught a few nice YFT's

Offshore3144 and the tina Louise caught a few nice YFT's and some Dolphins.

Blue Magic and crew scored with a bigeye, 4 nice YFT's.

They're all cleaning fish right now.

Chris,
Thanks for the update. I've been hitting refresh forever waiting to see how today went. Blue Magic is certainly dialed into the big eyes. Maybe Matt will spill the beans on some locations and lure choices!

If I know Fernando (Blue Magic) it's all about Blue/White & Pink/White in IL400's & EX220's and fishing AWAY from others, unless .........

B/W and P/W I have in spades! You are right about the last part too. If I remember from last year he was north of the fleet.

Big eye went 115 at the dock. That's all I know...

I do know that I'm picking up the meat tomorrow, I've secured two empty full sized freezers for the out of town boys.

Jeff, If you've got a buddy with a Prius that you could borrow for the weekend, and kept her at 55MPH the whole way, I'm sure you could be here in time for Friday, because we're looking at two lay days now. You'd prolly be out about 150$ for the round trip.

I need another for Friday anyways, one backed out on me. So you got a ride. I'll tail Fernando's arse out and back.

I guess we're going to have to start calling fernando "Bigeye guy" instead of Blue Magic. He sure knows how to find them. What's been the color of choice so far? B/W P/W or P/B? We will be down tomorrow night and Inshore fishing I guess on thurs, and then we'll see if we can put some yellers in the box on fri

Better get on those admin duties there les....

Both the other boys seem to be fading fast, and they haven't even hit the stretch yet!!!!!

Wait, I forgot, we don't really need an admin here, because everyone is well behaved!
