Finished fishing last night, weather is poor as - gale 8. No problem we have got 850 fish , a good start to the season. We got the weather on our stern quarter for our journey home, bloody good job or it would have been like being in a washing machine for 38 hours. We will be landing early Sunday morning, in Newlyn, where the Tuna will be going straight to the Falfish factory to be portioned up for you, the buyer. hope you enjoy for first bit of Tuna for the season. Hopefully I'll have a pint Sunday lunchtime. Should be going sea agin Tuesday.

Weather is piss poor - what happened to shorts and t-shirts? Tuna fishing windis all over the place, plently of rain. It was like being one of those cows you see in the field, sheltering against a hedge, that's what it was like! We still had 107 fish, the little darlings, but hard going. It's 5 o'clock and today is Friday our last day. Will be home Sunday to land, anyone who wants to buy any tuna will have to get it from M&J Seafoods and not from us. Have just put my head out of the window and it looks like a typical Cornish day - wind and rain! If anyone at my place is reading this, can you spark the rayburn up? So I can have a bath when I get gome, thanks likely. Quentin.

Weather is west north west and has been 6 to 8 all day. We ended up with 130 fish for the day. We're still catching ok, our Basque friend is towing towards the galican fleet, we're staying put to see what happens. Today the fish are here, but they aren't feeding well. On another note, our Commander Captain Edwards cooked 'duck a l'orange' or something like that last night, came on deck to empty fat out of the tray and dropped the duck on the deck, which had just been washed with bilgex! Let's say the duck had a tang to it, and it wasn't orange! got go put the lures out now.

Weather - not a very comfortable day! Wind has been veering round all day 7 to 8, but the sun as been out so not so bad. Had real grief today, working flying lines on poles today with wind and sea all over the place, but got there in the end with 130 tuna for the day! It's 03:30am feeling a bit tired now, is it Tuesday or Wednesday morning? Not sure but will give them all a shout in a minute to get the lines ready, as I had 40 first thing yesterday morning, the plan is to get a dinghy to row over to Gervasio to spend a day aboard him. That's all for now I'm having a mug of tea. Quentin.

Weather is a little fresh - southerly 7. However, the little beauties chewed up and we had our best day yet with 202 fish. Not bad, couldn't have asked for a better start to the season, won't say to much on that cause I don't want our luck to lash up, and I would say not bad for the time doing the job. Long hours though, everyone is loving it at the moment, it's refreshing not having to do hundreds of nets. I still can't get over how we're out here with the Basques catching tuna - wicked! I've got to put the lures out now before I get sacked. Quentin.
