Tip&Trick Description 1:
Albright Knot
The albright knot is most commonly used for joining lines of different diameter, for creating shook leaders and when Bimini Twist is tied in the end of lighter casting line. It is also used to connect monofilament to wire.
1.Create a loop in the tag end of the heavier line, then feed the tag end of the lighter line through it.
2. Bring the tag end up and over the loop to make your first turn.
3. Make a series of turns around all three stands, keeping it as tight as possible.
4. make a minimum of 10 turns, bringing the tag end out of the end of the heavier line's loop.
5. To tighten the knot, pull the standing part of the heavier line. At the same time, slide the turns toward the loop end.
6. When turns are in a neat position, pull both standing parts to make the knot tight. Trim ends.

Description 1:
When only the best will do! A perfect fit: measured, tucked, darted and approved by Hurricane's own pattern and design craftsman. Vulnerable wear and stress points are double reinforced with an extra tough material sewn to the underside of the cover. An unbreakable 1/4' poly draw rope sewn with the perimeter hem enables the cover to be cinched tight to the hull. 1' poly loops are sewn around the perimeter of the cover to accept a Hurricane strap/buckle tie down kit, bungee cords, or rope ties for positive securing to the boat. Built tough to take the exposure and abuse that boat covers are exposed to when trailering, storing, or mooring.

Report Description:
With the oncoming full moon and hard month of fishing pressure, the fishing last week marked a bit of a slowdown as compared to the wide open offshore bite in January. A decrease in the schools of bait was also noticed this past week. Boats on average raised 2 - 3 Sailfish per day with some ' 0' strike days thrown in as well. Captains reported good action on one day followed by a complete shutdown on the next. Still some anglers return with respectable catches. Returning New Hampshire angler, Doug Clark, fishing aboard the Moramay landed 5 SAILFISH, 1 DORADO, 1 ROOSTERFISH 1 YELLOWTAIL JACK and several BONITOS in 6 days of fishing. Captain Adolofo along with angler Mr. Panix landed 4 SAILFISH, YELLOWTAIL JACKS and 1 ROOSTERFISH in 3 days of fishing and additional 20 JYELLOWTAIL JACKS 1 ROOSTER FISH, 9 RAINBOW RUNNERS, and 22 BONITOS while fishing 2 other inshore days. Mr. Nichols group fishing aboard the La Bamba and The Marlin Azul managed 7 SAILFISH in 5 DAYS of fishing. French Angler Mr Soussaol finished his final two days aboard the Super panga Leydy, landing 4 SAILFISH . Illinois angler Randy Cottrell also fishing aboard the Leydy landed 1 SAILFISH on his first day offshore. Flyfishing angler John Vangheem fishing aboard the Monica had several shots at SAILFISH on a fly in One day. Returning SCI member Mr. Gary Christensen fishing aboard the Janeth landed 4 JACKS and 3 BONITOS on one inshore day and 1 SAILFISH on one offshore day. Overall the captains reported working very hard for a few strikes. The inshore appears to by picking up a bit with better numbers of Roosterfish being raised. Late February, March and April are BIG FISH months for Marlin and Tuna and interested angler are encouraged to contact our office for boat availability.
Ixtapa Zihuatanejo weather: Uncommonly windy for this time of year. Temps in the 90's
Sea Conditions: Moderate
Bait Supply: Fair to Good.
Sincerely,
Stan Lushinsky
