				Slow day at the dump 8/17
			 
 All these reports of long fins enticed me to end a 12 year hiatus and try an inshore tuna trip.  Glass calm, always an issue, and very slow.  Fished from the mid eastern side of the dump S to the top of the shipping lane, then east.  Not much showing other than tiny skipjacks(?).  Took some small mahi from under a pallet.  No chances at tuna or wahoo.  Radio chatter didn't sound overly active either.  Beautiful boat ride nevertheless.  Did see acres of halfbeaks being ripped apart by large bluefish a few miles S of Nomans.  Years ago there would have been bluefin on those.  Anybody else do anything? |
