Left MB about 7:30PM Friday, cruising about 30 minutes behind Whippet Good, with WaaTooSee about 30 behind us (guys from BD board). Great Boat Ho's, SeaDawg and his friend Frank. This was to be the cruise of the month. Went 99 miles South to about 15 South of the lower 500, lines wet at 5:40AM, boat plugged to the gills with Albacore, limits for 3 by exactly 7:41AM (we looked at the time, high fives all around).

Headed into the Coral for a nice early afternoon of filleting fish, showers, dinner of Frank/Mot's albie and yellowtail with crazy Frankie (WaaTooSee), Mots and every relative they know

Slept on the boat, and came home at 7:30AM today in semi-snot (felt sorry for those trying today outside). What a difference a day makes. It was FLAT out there Friday night and Saturday morning. Started blowing about the time we hit the Coral, and blew again this AM on the way home.

150lbs of fillets after 3 hours of slicing and dicing.

Now that’s my kind of albacore trip! Congratulations on the chickens, the socializing and substantially dodging of the snot.

Any better grade down south? I heard of some pushing #40 down by the 1010.

We were 15 miles South of the Lower 500, a lot further then the 1010. Avg fish was over 20lbs. Good grade. A couple almost #30. Other boats got one or two over #30.
