Tip&Trick Description 1:
I just returned from a fishing trip on the Fin Fever out of Newport Beach, California and was I impressed with what they used to catch the tunas! We used Yozuri Hydromagnums in the to troll for the albacore tunas. I am telling you these were the hottest lures I have seen in a long time! They removed the front treble hook from the lures to make removal of the lure easier and faster from the fish. After multiple double and triple hookups I am convinced these are the hottest lures around! I asked to take a photo of the lures so I could get some and thanks to the crew and their hot tricks we caught our limit (all we wanted till we were tired of pulling on the fish!) Great trip with a great group of guys!! Hope this photo helps.......Matt |

Vulnerable wear and stress points are double reinforced with an extra tough material sewn to the underside of the cover. An unbreakable 1/4' poly draw rope sewn with the perimeter hem enables the cover to be cinched tight to the hull. 1' poly loops are sewn around the perimeter of the cover to accept a Hurricane strap/buckle tie down kit, bungee cords, or rope ties for positive securing to the boat.

ZIHUATANEJO, MAINLAND MEXICO
IN GENERAL: Conditions remain fairly unchanged for the last two weeks. The dorado are still a no show, but we are finally getting some of overdue rains to wash material out of the rivers to help hold the dorado. The added benefit of our late evening rains is it really cools things down a bit.
We are still getting an average of 2 to 3 sailfish a day per boat, and the 25-pound class tuna are at the 15 mile mark.
The big action is still with the roosterfish and jack crevalle. The roosters are 4 to 6 fish a day, averaging 35 to 45 pounds.
What the smaller jacks lose in size (averaging about 10- to 12-pounds), they make up for in quantity. Fifty fish days are not uncommon if you want to target them.
