SOME BLUEFIN & ALBIES(052310)!!! good evening, The guys called in tonight to report that the weather was very windy and just about unfishable was they worked south toward the rocks. The offshore water conditions looked good when they ran over a meter mark that produced 4 bluefin in the 30 to 40 pound range and 3 albacore in the 20 to 25 pound class, The weather proved to be unfishable and they continued south with a better weather forecast for the next few days, this could be an area to check later in the trip. the sat. phone seems to be working at the moment so we will report when we can.

ROUGH WEATHER AT THE ROCKS (052410)!!! Hello everyone, Capt. Jeff Debuys called in tonight with a report on the first full day of fishing. Jeff said the weather is horrible to say the least, probably the roughest he has ever seen the rocks. The fish on the other hand did not care about the wind and big seas, the bite was absolutely fantastic on both Yellowfin Tuna in the 40 to 60 pound range and Yellowtail in the 25 to 40 pound class. For the folks that have fished the Independence in bad weather, they know what a battleship she is in poor conditions while fishing on the anchor or offshore drifting. Needless to say things went well today and everyone onboard is pulling and yanking to their heart's content. We will check in later as the trip continues. Thanks for checking in and wish us luck, The Indy staff.

GOOD YELLOWFIN & YELLOWTAIL ACTION (052510)!!! Captain Debuys called in tonight with another good report very much like yesterday's action, good Yellowfin Tuna and Yellowtail action for most of the day. The Tuna are in the 30 to 60 lb. range and the Yellows are in the 20 to 50 lb. range. The weather remains very poor with lots of wind and big seas to go with it. The guys are going to give it another day and hope the weather turns around so the offshore grounds will be an option on the way back north. If anyone would like to fish the Indy we have a few spots on the next 7 day trip departing May 30th or June 20th coming up. Signs look very good for the season so give your favorite long range boat a call and get in on the action.

GOOD DAY OF FISHING!!! The boys had another good day of fishing on Yellowfin Tuna and good grade Yellowtail, the fish are the same grade as the first two days of fishing. The weather has improved but it is still on the choppy side of things. All and all the guys are having a great time catching fish releasing a good amount and tagging a few bigger ones as well. With the first 3 days of action filled fishing it's time to go looking and see if we can get back on that Albacore and BF the we saw a few days ago. All's well out here so wish us luck on the Longfins. The Indy guys.

BLUEFIN(052710)!!! Hello everyone, today was spent in search of fish offshore and yet again the weather made things tough for looking, the gang came away with 6 Bluefin for the day and that was it. They have one more to fish and will spend it somewhere along the coast to get out of the weather and then start for home. The trip has an excellent one as far as catching goes, we will report tomorrow with our day, have a good evening, the Indy, crew.
