If we get into them I'll be glad to share. Give me a holler when your coming or going to your hunting spot and I'll make it happen!

One fella from Oklahoma (Austin), fishing with his Dad and Brother on the starboard side main deck, limited out on chunk in literally 4 hours. Dad and brother had 2 and 1 YFT by the time Austin limited out. Austin goes inside and snags an hour nap, comes back out on deck with a purple butterfly jig, drops it over the side and lets it sink about 50ft down - hooked up immediately on his 4th YFT on the first drop. That jig bit YFT ran around 70 lbs. I told his Dad - "MAKE SURE AUSTIN BUYS A LOTTERY TICKET ON THE RIDE HOME."
By the end of the night, all three of these OK boys had a limit of YFT - 9
La Pesca caught and released a Blue Marlin early AM last Saturday at the Drillship.
Lotta 2ft long squid on top mixed with flying fish.
Also seeing some glass minnow sign which means, once the YFT start feeding on these little glass minnows, deeper chunk may be the way to go?

Jurassic barracuda near the rig, so if you want one or two of these brutes, they are there. We chased Rainbow runners for about an hour before the North winds hit us. Caught them on chunk and they fight like hail on lighter setups. Related to the west Coast Yellowtail and they eat very similar as well. Well worth chasing these tasty fish and there are some of the biggest of this species at Perdido right now. We also had periodic Mahi come and go and many opportunities were blown with everyone rigged for YFT when these fish showed.

Do we have a food list?
How are the rental eggbeaters? I'd like something foolproof for casting when I get tired.
I’m bringing smoked pulled pork and buns for sandwiches. There will be enough for everyone to have at least one BBQ meal again. Along with homemade BBQ sauce!

I'll try and get a text or email going and we can figure the food stuff out.
