Brother in Law Dave G came down to visit so he took advantage of a perfect offshore day and went out on the Pelican with four others and they hit the jackpot.

Sunrise headed south towards some shrimp boats. It would be a gamble if the shrimp boats were not there after the four hour run to chase blackfin tuna.

Lots of activity at the first shrimp boat but no tuna were seen just bonita and sharks. The next stop sharks and bonita showed up and so did the tuna!

Here is Dave with one of 7 he caught.

Look who's back! It's the best deck hand ever - Loyd!

Dave's crew had 21 blackfin and one large king mackerel. Captain James Wheeler, Loyd, and Jeff were first class and Dave and his buddies were "over the moon" with the success.

Lloyd's been back for quite a while now. James Wheeler will work very hard to find fish too.
