Today, Mark and Mike met me at the boat again early to try and get a head start on the fleet. We ran far south, fighting a strong north current to get us closer to the pod of porpoise we had found the previous day. On the horizon we spotted a boat that had found the school so we ran in his direction. As we neared we saw him hook up to his first ahi of the day. We decided to drop bait in the school and missed one on our third drop. More boats showed up and we started to mark fish shallower on the fish finder. We depolyed the greenstick to see if we could get an ahi to bite. It was hard to manuever around all the boats but we finally got an ahi to bite. Mark and Mike both missed the bite yesterday but were amazed to see the ahi boil on the squid hanging just barely in the water. 
Mike was up and with coaching from his father landed his first big ahi. Back at the dock we weighed the ahi. Mike wanted to catch one bigger than his father….his ahi weighed 108lbs! 1/2 a pound bigger than his dad’s!
