Tue. October 14, 2008: We left today with Wayne Martin and our Catchy Tackle 11 day and we will report soon. "The Intrepid Team"

Sat. Wed. October 15, 2008: The day was spent rigging our gear in between the fishing and tackle seminars with great anticipation of the next weeks fishing. We are enjoying beautiful weather once again with flat seas and clear skies. We will be at our first destination tomorrow morning and look forward to getting some lines wet. Wish us luck! "The Intrepid Team"

Thur. October 16, 2008: The day was spent catching some nice Wahoo and a few Yellowfin Tuna. The Wahoo were frisky and on the move throughout the day. We were able to boat some of the skinnies on jigs as well as live bait. Tomorrow we will be once again targeting the Wahoo off the kelps and several other spots we want to try out. Wish us luck...."The Intrepid Team"

Fri. October 17, 2008: We are traveling south in search of kelps and other floating structure that would be holding Wahoo and Dorado. We were fortunate enough to get some nice grade Wahoo that were promptly filleted for dinner. Javier made everyone his famous Wahoo enchiladas and what a hit they were!! Tomorrow we will be on the hunt for Yellowfin Tuna. "The Intrepid Team"

Sat. October 18, 2008: The day started off slow for us here on the Intrepid, but by mid afternoon things really turned on!! We spent the afternoon getting steady jigs strikes of Wahoo with the Catchy Tackle Wahoo bombs producing very well. We continued to get steady jigs strikes on Wahoo and medium grade Yellowfin until we found the right porpoise school holding the big Yellowfin we are looking for. We gave em alot of bait and they responded well. We spent the last few hours of the day light fighting 100-180 lb Yellowfin that pushed the guys to their limits. As of 9:00 pm we have 5 fish going and we are still hooking Tuna. We will be after these beautiful grade Tuna again tomorrow."The Intrepid Team "

Sun. October 19, 2008: The Intrepid and her passengers enjoyed a very good day of Yellowfin Tuna fishing. We were able to keep several fish going all day long and short flurries of Wahoo to keep things interesting. The quality of the Tuna is absolutely awesome, with the majority of the Tuna going between 120 lbs and 225 lbs!! Many of our fisherman have achieved their personal best Tuna on this trip already. We had so much fun today that we are going to fish for these beautiful grade Tuna again tomorrow! Wish us luck!! "The Intrepid Team"

Mon. October 20, 2008: The roll of the dice is always a risk, but sometimes you just have to follow your gut and go for it! With the conditions on the inside being less than ideal, we decided to take the chance and run to the Hurricane Bank on this 11 day Catchy Tackle Charter. The move paid off big time!! Today was the best day of our trip and the best day of big fish as well. We started off with a wide open gray bite on the big fish that lasted all day long. The big Tuna came through in waves, and when the dust settled we had all we wanted. The major part of our catch is between 125 lbs and 180 lbs. I do not know how many fish over 200 lbs we have, but there are many of them. The action was so fast during the day that it took everything we had to keep up. The kite rotation went through many cycles with everyone on board landing their biggest Tuna ever. We will send pictures throughout the week every night to give you all an idea of how great a trip this has been..."The Intrepid Team"

Tue. October 21, 2008: Good evening from the bridge of the Intrepid. We are making our way up the line and the mood here is very festive. It is not very often you spend the entire day going over the battles won and the battles lost over a two and a half day period. With 90% of our passengers landing their personal best Tuna, one can only imagine the spirit of all in the galley. I have to acknowledge the outstanding job the Intrepid Crew did in handling these big fish, especially at the pace they came over the rail yesterday. We would also like to let everyone know how well the new Super Seeker 6463xxxx-h rod performed on these Tuna, as well as the Avet Pro EX 50 wide 2 speed reels, together they performed flawlessly! With that being said, tonight's pictures are a few of the fish caught during a great night bite.. "The Intrepid Team"

Wed. October 22, 2008: Our travels are blessed with good weather and an upbeat atmosphere here on the Intrepid. As we work on small projects and give our vessel the care she deserves for our upcoming trips, we still continue to talk about the heartbreak losses and the giant kite explosions of our hot bite. We have many memories and special times made with such an adventure as this one. We hope you enjoy these photos of some of the nice grade Yellowfin Tuna. "The Intrepid Team"

Thur. October 23, 2008: We are enjoying beautiful weather as we travel home. The Intrepid Team would like to thank Wayne Martin and Catchy Tackle for a great trip and a wonderful group of fisherman to spend our fishing adventure with. Tomorrow we will be looking for some Yellowtail and possibly making some drifts for bottom dwellers. ETA is 7:00 am Saturday morning. "The Intrepid Team"

Fri. October 24, 2008: We finished off our trip with a few Yellowtail and some very good Red-rock cod fishing.. There were several large Lingcod in the mix as well. We would like to share one highlight of a different kind with you from this already wonderful trip. Tonight's picture is of a Whale Shark that was enjoying a back scrub as he swam along side the boat during our fishing day. The Whale Shark liked the back scratching so much that he stayed with us for several hours throughout the day. We would like to thank Catchy Tackle and Wayne Martin once again for a most memorable trip. Our E.T.A is 7:00 am Sat. "The Intrepid Team"

Sat. October 25, 2008: The Intrepid returned today from our Catchy Tackle 11 day trip with a fine catch of big Tuna. Jackpot results : 1st Place - Bill Hall...235 lb Yellowfin , 2nd Place - Jason Winbigler... 219.6 lb Yellowfin and 3rd place - Kevin Chung...206.3 Yellowfin. Honorable mention goes to 93 years young Joe Talasy with his 219.8 lb Yellowfin. "The Intrepid Team"
