ALBACORE II
Diawa Pacific 9/12/02

We did another charter on the Diawa Pacific Thursday September 12th. Kenny didn't have a charter the day before 9/11, so they were rested and chomping at the bit to get out. We left at 10pm, with 7 of us from the prior trip and 11 new people. The bite slowed on the 11th, so Kenny thought it best to head south, where the 2 day boats were getting fish. As usual, he was right. I had the trolling gear out just before 6am and we got the first hookup at 6:15 on a BP Catchy. On the next run, a zuchinni stopped the boat. It was a mix of trolled stops and Kenny metering fish. We had several great bait stops where 10 or more of us would be hooked up. We managed 3 Bluefin on bait and Dennis got one that was the second biggest fish at 30+ pounds.
