We
woke
up
before
daybreak
already
in
the
area
where
the
Captain
Cavaughn
wanted
to
start
fishing
for
the
day.
At
daylight
we
set
out
the
trolling
rods
and
the
crew
began
to
scan
the
area,
looking
around
for
signs
of
life.
Before
long
one
of
the
feathers
gets
bit
and
the
first
cries
of
"HOOK-UP"
echoed
across
the
stern
of
the
Queen.
Everyone
got
really
excited
and
headed
for
the
bait
tank
in
a
rush
to
get
a
sardine
out
in
the
water,
but
it
turned
out
to
be
a
small
skipjack
tuna.
Not
what
we
were
looking
for,
but
the
first
fish
in
the
boat.
We
weren't
worried.

Wilmer
was
up
to
troll
and
his
feather
gets
slammed
hard
so
we
were
thinking
it
might
be
a
yellowfin.
No
Luck
though.
Another
Skippy.
A
big
one
though.
Skippies
are
fun
to
catch
and
everything,
but
we
were
looking
for
some
tastier
swimmers
to
fill
the
hold
and
stock
the
fridge
with.
I'm
not
overly
superstitious
or
anything
but
when
some
of
guys
mentioned
a
possible
spiritual
intervention
to
keep
the
skipjack
away
I
was
up
for
anything.
Since
Wilmer
and
Eric
caught
the
first
skippies
we
thought
we
would
use
them
for
a
sacrifice
to
the
fish
Gods.
We
grabbed
them
by
there
ankles,
hung
them
over
the
side
and
had
them
chant
"No
skippies,
No
skippies,
we
don't
want
no
skippies"
while
we
dunked
them
repeatedly
into
the
Pacific.
Holy
Cow.
It
works!
I'm
not
sure
if
it
was
our
ritual
or
Justin's
eagle
eyes
up
in
the
crow's
nest
because
soon
enough
a
nice
paddy
came
over
the
horizon
and
our
skippy
problem
was
about
to
end.

A

said
he???d
look
into
its
potential
as
a
line-class
record.

We
set
out
the
trollers
at
first
light
and
began
searching
for
paddies.
It
was
slip
pickins
on
the
paddies
for
a
long
time.
We
came
upon
a
school
of
crashing
fish
and
raced
on
over
to
investigate.
We
had
high
hopes
for
yellowfin
but
were
dissapointed
when
they
turned
out
to
be
skipjack
tuna.
We
hooked
one
but
couldn't
keep
the
school
up
with
the
boat.

Valdez

Rick
