We logged a nice day at the island with steady morning fishing for 30 - 60# yellowfin that led into the early afternoon. The pattern appeared similar to yesterday when the early afternoon lull arrived and we planned to take advantage of the evening hit much as we did yesterday when the fish moved back in. As occurs so many times in fishing however the tuna had different motivations and never did make the evening showing leaving us holding the bag so to speak all dressed up with no where to go. It was a significant disappointment but thankfully we made the most of our morning with a strong showing by the guys who had already put a respectable day's catch in the hatch. After much consternation, we bid the island farewell late treating our ecstatic group of fishermen to the memorable spectacle of sundown over Guadalupe with a glassy sea in the foreground. Heavenly is the only description worthy of the traveling conditions we encountered away from the island. No swell, no wind, no seas, sunny and warm. How could it possibly be better?
