Arrived at the Resor area around 5:30, the majority of the fleet showed up around 7:00.

Captain wanted to troll, so we trolled. Albie to tuna ratio was 100-1 and only manage to catch 99 albies, so we didn't get our tuna. Radio chatter made it sound like the rest of the fleet was seeing the same.

Tried moving to th AP area and into chicken canyon, but it was barren wasteland.

Did some pot hopping on the way home on the east wall of the mudhole, nothing was home. As a last try, we snuck up on a floating tote that must have fallen off a trawler and hit gold, well, yellow tail. Spent the next 30 minutes picking a half dozen Mahi and one big grey trigger, and then called it a day.

And that's all the news that's fit to print.

Thank you for an awesome report with all the details. It helps out guys like me that are "out of the loop of the pro tuna jocks". I have a lead sled single inboard that doesn't allow me to run all over the Atlantic Ocean to find them.
