Default Brookings Tuna

Went out with Bill Mullens (ArimaBill) this morning, worked around the 42.05 /125.05 area for a couple junior varsity type Tuna on a double, went out a little further for nada, returned to work the area some more, but no love.

We came inside, found a break and a long trash line, worked it for two more fish, one about 30lbs. We ran Mex. flags, blue/white clones and ran some deeper running lures, but just couldn't find the magic. Our companion boat, the only other boat out there managed 2 fish for their efforts. Water got a tad rough with a mixed swell, capped off with a bit of a chop made it less than pleasant running back the last 32 miles and we were met with rain, good size swell at the jaws and 2 flags flying at the CG station. Rest of the week looks like crapolla, so time to get back to honey-dos.
