Viva Italiano!

First half of August

Hello Blog Fans. Today's trip was pushed to Thursday due to nasty easterlies and rain so I thought I would update my blog and let u know what we have been doing of late.
The GOOD NEWS is commercial striped bass season is over and there are actually some bass left to be taken. We have had some banner trips the past week with alot of smiles and memories to last a lifetime. The tuna fishing is starting to pick up. There are alot of tuna around but they have been finicky to eat and school up bait and crash on it. The bait they seem to be on in mini butterfishfish or herring the size of your fingernail. Hard to duplicate and this weeks tides do not help. The good news is I am wide open when the moon kicks in and the tides get more to the tunas liking. We are hoping for a banner fall and just pray the weather holds......
The new boat has been good to me this season with no major mishaps other than a couple of broken t-top welds early on. Most of my customers love the new ride and the SIMRAD electronics are truly rad and help us zero in on fish in tough conditions....Soon I will have tunes and Sirius weather hooked up....One truly slick ride it is becoming.....
Till next tide......
