Sunfish, Deep water and Kelp Pattis
On the final day of our Tuna trip we went further West than before. We caught one Yellowfin Tuna at about 10:00 am. We also saw a Yellowtail and a cool shark. We also saw several Ocean Sunfish. It was fairly rough and by the end of the day we were tired of being pounded by the waves.
