I was on one 80 hr trip with them last year and we got into a topwater bite near one of the production rigs about 120 miles out. Obviously on a new moon. Yellowfin on spinning tackle is a hell of alot of fun as you probably know. Most where in the 50 lb range but a couple were up to 100. We saw some monsters clear the surface of the water chasing flying fish.

I was on their web site last night and saw a pic of a 183 pounder caught last Sept. That is a healthy fish even by pacific standards!

I am heading out with them again next month. I am more excited about that than I was my Carribean billfishing trip I took last month!
