WOW. THIS IS GREAT LIVING.
by Indy Crew, 4-01-2014
No April Foolin' here,
Good evening everyone. Again today was really good fishing for 100 to 235lb. tuna and large Wahoo. We ended the day with 63 tuna and 39 Wahoo for the effort. We pretty much had something on our lines from 0400 till dark. The over all grade is really super good, as most everything is at least 100 lbs and with 5 fish over the 200 mark and a few that we're close we are living rite. There were lots of 150 to 190lb. errs to add to the mix as well. With 2 wells full we are headed into our 3 rd well tomorrow with 5 more days of fishing and hope things are going to keep rolling rite along. Check our FB page for some pictures of the trip so far. Wish us luck, Jeff and the Indy crew

Good evening from the Indy. Today we saw a totally different set of conditions as the great fishing current from yesterday was going opposite today. We did manage to put together a day with 2 big fish and some 150 to 180 lb. fish early on. Charter master Rick Ozaki caught his second cow a 225 lb. fish this morning the other by Dane Barriult a 199 lb. beauty. 32 tuna and 17 big Wahoo for the effort today. We hope for another great day tomorrow, please wish us luck, Jeff and the Indy crew
ANOTHER GOOD DAY
by Indy Crew, 4-03-2014
just checking in here from the independence. Today we awoke to some what better conditions for fishing. We made the best of what was around and put together another good day on these beauties. Three more cows and one maybe made it on the boat this morning. The rest is gorgeous grade fish as well. 32 tuna and 26 Wahoo for the effort today. The weather is as good as one could want down here. There are a few pictures on FB and you might recognize a few of he lucky anglers out here whooping it up on he Indy. We still have a few more days to fish before we gotta head back. Thanks for checking in, Jeff and the Indy crew
DIFFERENT DAY......
by Indy Crew, 4-04-2014
Good evening again from the independence. Today we were dealt with some challenging fishing conditions, as the saying goes, every day is different, and couldn't be more true out here today. One extreme to another we had 4 bigguns hooked and 2 liberated themselves. The sign of fish at one point today was very good but wouldn't stick around the boat. 18 tuna and a dozen Wahoo was all we could muster today. One hopes and prays for one more crack at these beauties like we had a few days ago to even things out for today's slower fishing. So with that I will sign off with high hopes for the next few days. Sea ya then, Jeff and the Indy crew
Time for a change......
by Indy Crew, 4-05-2014
After a couple of slow days of fishing we have decided to make a move to different and hopefully greener pastures. I feel the sign of tuna and Wahoo that had been around just wasn't around any more, so off we go. Don't get me wrong, we had our chances and made good on most of them. With 240 quality tuna, maybe a dozen over 200 lbs. and 123 nice Wahoo aboard we feel lucky to have a great catch all things considered. Some guys had no problem getting their limit of tuna and half limit of Wahoo this trip. That's why it's called fishing. We are going to break up the ride home and stop by the rocks for a day of yellowtail fishing. Sea ya then Jeff and the Indy crew
ADD A LITTLE COLOR......
by Indy Crew, 4-06-2014
Hello again from the Indy. We broke up the ride home and stopped by the stones to fish for yellows today and were greeted by beautiful grade, biting fish. The 22 to 35 lb. yellowtail put on a great show for us and the guys with the salas 7 x long rods killed em as well as the yo yo 6 x guys. The guys with bait were really busy as well. There were 3 tuna caught, a couple of 15 lb. and a 50 lb. stand out. Things looked good here today, and we easily caught our daily limits for all. Picture perfect weather made the day even better, as everyone had a last yanking and cranking in the warm sunshine. We are headed up he line.. Finito. Sea ya all later, Jeff and the Indy crew

LET'S GO FISHING.....
by Indy Crew, 4-24-2014
Good evening everyone from the independence. We are out again on another 16 day trip, this one sponsored by Savon Tackle. We departed yesterday with a beautiful load of bait from Everingham bros. bait around 1000 hrs. We have a really great group of fisherman for this trip and we spent the past few days rigging and relaxing as well as some odd jobs here and there. The tackle raffles were a big hit as everyone was a winner for sure. There are a few pictures on FB of some of the activities on board here. We are pointed south for our destination that has yet to be determined, so check out the reports as we begin fishing on Sunday. Please wish us luck, Jeff and the Indy crew, Matt, Tyler, Kevin Oscar, Cole, Michele, and Rolf
WELL, ITS A START....
by Indy Crew, 4-27-2014
hello everyone from the independence. We started off the trip yesterday and saw a little bit of sign in the afternoon that had potential. We landed a couple of 170 - 175's and a few handful's of 80 to 140 lb. fish topped off by a 235 lb. caught by Tom Phillips right before dark. This morning was a different story as things were in high gear early on in the game.. By 0700 we caught 20 or so tuna most being 80 to 175 lbs. and 2 fish Cathy Needleman's 225 lb. beauty and Clarence Becker's 240 lb. were the standouts. We did have a fair shot at these bigguns as we hosed 4 or 5 big fish, but that's fishing. That's all to report so far, we will update later tonight. Sea ya then Jeff
Day 2 Wrap Up
by Indy Crew, 4-28-2014
DAY 2 WRAP UP....
After the morning hit we tried all sorts of areas for another 17 fish that were good grade, a couple of 170 to 180's and a standout 225 lb. caught by Vladimir Kustudic to round out the day. 37 tuna and a couple of Wahoo, 3 cows for the effort. Sea ya all ma?ana
IT'S AN EARLY BITE.....
by Indy Crew, 4-29-2014
Good evening everybody, here is what we know. Again things got going early on today as timing is everything. The cows pulled a no show, but the fish that did show up were just what we needed. Very good action on 90 to 190 lb fish today and they put on a good show until 0800 and then they went away. The rest of the day was a few fish here and there. We tallied 39 tuna and one lone Wahoo for the effort today. The weather is just perfect down here as well. Check out the pictures on F B as we put some up from the days fishing. Wish us luck for tomorrow, Jeff and the Indy crew
TIME FOR A MOVE.....
by Indy Crew, 4-30-2014
we gave the early morning spot another try with somewhat different fishing conditions and came up with 10 tuna 80 to 160 lbs. before setting a southwest course and kicking em up to cruising speed. With plenty of fishing time left we are going to try the bank and see if we can get er done out there. Everyone is doing quite well , and he weather is outstanding. Sea ya all later Jeff
