Here's Suzanne with David Lee (who landed the fish after another hour and fifteen minutes) and Oscar, the 273 lb. Big Eye Tuna; a.k.a. Catch of the Day.  Click on picture to enlarge

Six of us fished with Captain Brynner and Mate Steve. We caught one Dolphin, four Yellow Fin Tuna, and two citation Big Eye Tuna. The other Big Eye was 138 lbs. and landed in  a little over an hour by Andrew Staas. We had to come in after catching Oscar since there wasn't enough opening in the fish box for him! We fished out of Pirates Cove and actually made the July 2 fishing report!
