Well good afternoon
It seems that the water is finally starting to give us a break.As of right know 1:20 pm capt.mike calll and said they are starting to see real good schools of yellow tail and they have so far boated 6 of these fish up to 22 pounds. it looked real bad a couple of days ago.
the water was off color and cool he said he has found some 68 dergee water and the fish are in it…… will report later today for final counts and the past week…….

well good evening Anglers

the sand bass are still the mains stay for us, Not really sure what to make of the rest of the fish we would be catchig this time of year. the yellow tail and bluefin are still around but just don’t want to get with the program. We are as said yesterday spending some time looking for the surface stuff but they just dont want to play…….as for the sand bass they wanted to bite a little bit for us yesterday .Dont be surprised if we make some deep drops this weekend, to get some sack fillers around the islands… It seems the reds want to bite bit. We dont normally fish the deep stuff until nov or dec. but it is a back up for us. the counts for the past two days as follows
08-11-2010 3/4 Day 24 anglers 21 California Scorpionfish, 1 California Halibut, 43 Barred Sand Bass
08-12-2010 3/4 Day 21 anglers 72 Barred Sand Bass 5 California barracuda and 21 rock fish
We are hoping for a change and some surface fish move up and the fish start to bite instead of just tease, we will see.
