Today began with a simple statement “we will be back inside the inlet no later than 2:00”. Every forecast I looked at showed the wind hitting us between 1 to 2 pm. Our run south was absolutely beautiful. Lines hit the water and within 30 seconds we have a fish charging after a bait. First few bites don’t come tight and then things slow for about 30 minutes. Finally the bait reappears and the bites start. By 11:30 we have a nice jag of false albacore and two yellowfin in the box. We decide to head in but after a few miles we hit a wall of wind and seas that are absolutely horrible. Can’t remember the last time I was so glad to be inside the inlet.
