We used today basically as a stepping stone for our next move. We spent most of the day traveling up the in unfortunately bouncy weather. When we got to our destination we found nothing but whitecaps, but we have high hopes for tomorrow.

Our picture of the day is veteran angler Ralph Mikkelson and a tuna fish he caught yesterday. Made very apparent by his bigger than life smile, he continues to enjoy himself in the sport that has been his passion for life. He has touched many including myself when I saw that he still has a pair of pliers in his back pocket that I had wrapped for him over 20 years ago on a Clipperton trip (just imagine what he has seen)."
