INDY IS BACK ON LINE.

good morning everyone we are fresh out after 2 months of maintenance which included complete over haul rebuild on the main engines , extensive new amenities throughout the boat, new carpet, new flat screens, toilets, a/c ducting , and paint just to name a few things. She is running like a champ and is currently out on a 16 day trip that departed yesterday. West coast marketing, Rick Ozaki is our host and there were super great give a-ways this morning with Avet reels, Seaguar Floro and spectra, raider jigs, Graf Tech Rods, and plenty of shirts, hats, and visors. Everyone was a big time winner. With a very good load of sardines and a very good group to fish with we are off and running for points south. The boat is really running well with the rebuilt engines. We will report when we can and will start the process on Saturday. Wish us luck, Jeff and the Indy crew

Not much going on

Not too much to report except lots of rigging and lots of R & R out here on the independence. The weather has been outstanding and everyone is having a really good time sharing fish tales from past and present as well as a poker tourney here and there. Fishing begins Saturday , so stay tuned for more reports. Thanks for checking in, Jeff and the Indy crew

Fishing Begins

Good evening everyone we arrived here in the morning and made the tour around only to see very little to work with. We got situated and began hooking tuna. We scratched at the 70 to 130 lb. fish for most of the day and tallied 40 of them and a dozen wahoo for our efforts. We hope for a shot at some bigguns tonight after dinner. The weather is outstanding and everyone is doing quite well. Sea ya all later, Jeff and the Indy crew

The Buffer Zone

Good evening everybody here is what we know about today. We made a move to the buffer zone and things were pretty lively here today starting early in the morning. The better grade fish were an early thing and being mostly 140 to 180 lbs. fish. After that we had good action all day long on stockers 80 to 130 lb. yellow fin. There was a good showing of Wahoo as well and really spiced up the day. Big fish honors goes to Paul Rubio with his 203 lb tuna. Final tally for today is 55 tuna and 25 nice Wahoo. We are going to try it again tomorrow. Great weather also. ONE opening for April 23, this is the time to jump on for great spring fishing, contact office for more GOOD info. Please wish us luck, Jeff and the Indy crew
