trip 21-1 JOHN COLLINS-OPEN

by Matt Kaullen, 1-09-2021


HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!!!

We are out for 16 days on the John Collins Invitational and as always John brought some great gear to raffle off. We have been traveling down rigging up for what’s to come. The guys have stayed busy making top shots learning new connections and of course telling fishing tales. We still have a ways to go and we are anticipating for some hot action. The weather is great thus far and we will check in again in a few days. Wish us luck. Matt and Indy Crew

trip 21-1 HIT AND MISS

by Matt Kaullen, 1-16-2021


The last few days have been hit or miss for us. We have had a couple shots at some trophies but the overall sign of big fish has perished. We are working at it and hoping for some signal of the big fish to arrive. The days are spent trolling up a few wahoo and there is a bit of 50-90# fish. We have had great weather on our side and we hope for an attack here soon. Wish us luck Matt and Independence crew.

We returned this morning from our 16 day John Collins trip. It was tough ride after a good start. The sign of the better grade tuna took off after a couple of days and we held on in hopes of a return. We were able to scrape up tuna from 25-100# throughout the days and scratch away at the wahoo. The weather was picturesque for the better half of the trip. The crew and myself would like to thank everyone who made the trip and looking forward to seeing y’all in the near future.

We are underway again with Rogers 16 day trip. We are rolling down and the rigging has begun. Roger had all sorts of swag to giveaway as well as some rods for the guys. It’s a boatload of happy campers itching to do some fishing. Check back in a few days. Matt and Independence crew
