Canyon Runner Reports - 8/9-10 (14 Yellowfin on the Chunk)

[Canyon Runner]

Capt. Mark DeBlasio and mate Eddie Farrel took the Bob Petro charter out to sneak in an overnighter before the blow Thursday to Friday and ran right to the northeast corner of the Lindenchol and dropped the hook. They chunked hard all night without a touch until 2:30am when the fish came on. Jigging with hammered diamond jigs with trebles and baiting them on sardines and live squid put yellowfin on the decks. They fought over 25 yellowfin putting 14 in the boat. All the yellowfin were between 60-70 pounds. They are on there way home at first light.

This trip was Eddie Farrel’s last trip of the 2007 season as he is off to Duke University for his masters in Marine Biology – we like our Canyon Runner Crew to be well educated! It also may be the last trip of his life as he just recently got engaged. Good luck on both accounts Eddie – you will be missed!!!!
