I had the opportunity to fish on the Annual Jeff Yee 1.5 Day Offshore Fishing Trip on the Endeavor this past weekend. This year Jeff stepped up the trip to a 1.5 day trip giving us more time on the water. It was stellar weather with no wind to speak of. David Ikeda and crew welcomed us aboard. "Man, the weather has been like this since July 4th. Grease calm days." It was all of the fixings for a great trip and the group was ready to fish.
What makes the trip really cool is the great people that make up the group.
This was my third time with the group and the first time offshore for my wife Jessica. She did a great job pulling in 7 Dodos and a couple of Yellows. Not bad for the first time offshore. I was stoked for her.
We ended up the day with a mixed bag of Yellowtail and Mahi. The Dodos were free swimming all over the place. It was like looking into an aquarium. It a mixed bag on size. The Mahi were eating bait and the 7X Surface Iron, and the Yellows were on anything you tossed at em. We did get a few Bluefin in the grey on the YoYo and a mid day sample of Yellowfin on bait. Doug also gave us a show when he hooked a rather large Mako right off the windy side of the boat. We also had two marlin come up behind the trollers and bite short.
Nice DoDo

Thanks again to David and the crew of the Endeavor. Eddie cooked some kick ass meals for the trip and we all thank you very much. Hats off to our CharterMaster Jeff Yee for pulling off another great trip. Sign up Mr. and Mrs. Hara for next year!!!!
