At the risk of sounding like a broken record, we had another fine day of angling here at Clarion with much improved weather and action similiar to yesterday except for the addition of a pair of two hundred twenty pound class yellowfin tuna. Very good numbers of tuna, throughout the same area we had our best action on wahoo, wreaked havoc on the lighter live bait outfits as the anglers hoping for skinnies were taken for a ride that almost inevitably ended in some form of equipment failure. But, when we geared up for them (the tuna), we definitely got our share; although the sharks got their share too. Most of the tuna landed today were in the same 90 - 140# as yesterday with the exception of course of the two jumbos reported above.

Of note is the fact that the wahoo fishing was of the same caliber as yesterday showing no indication of the pressure applied by our best efforts to tag and release the wily speedsters. In fact, it seemed that there may have been even more wahoo around the island today. All of these indications, including what we saw on our mid day sojourn to the outside, convinced me to give it at least one more morning here at Clarion before considering a final move to stretch out the voyage and finish up on the inside. Although the action is great here at Clarion, it has been pretty difficult to shake the memory of Isla Socorro where the fishing for big yellowfin was nothing short of epic and the local shark population considerably less offensive. Time will tell and in the meantime our fantastic group of anglers, visually worn by an busy schedule of almost non stop fishing, is ready to give the wahoo and yellowfin tuna at Isla Clarion another go beginnig well before daylight tomorrow.
