Report:
We started out the trip by trolling out past 120 feet to our swordfishing area. We didn't get a single strike on the way out. We had 2 swordfish bites, never got the hook set on the first, but managed to get the second one to the back of the boat. It was about 60-70 pounds and was revived and released.
At about 4:30 AM, we started making our way out to the other side of the stream (approx. 100 nm out). We found some birds and caught about a dozen or so Blackfin / Yellowfin tuna. All of them, but 2, were real small and were released.
Overall, it appears that the larger Yellowfin were not around the last two trips to the other side.
