Fish Report for 7-18-2008
Everyone that had a bait on had a fish

Hello Anglers,
Sunday we tried our luck offshore looking for kelps and some signs of tuna. Although the tuna action was few and far between, we managed to do really well on yellowtail holding on kelp paddy's. There is definitely no shortage of kelps out here and nearly every kelp we stopped on had yellowtail holding on it. We had some stops where everyone that had a bait on had a fish. We even pulled in half a dozen dorado that were mixed in. After loading up on yellows we focused our efforts on tuna, getting to the albacore grounds at grey light Monday morning. We managed to scratch and claw in a decent day of a mixed grade albacore ranging from 15-40lbs. We even had a few bluefin and a lone big bull dorado to go along with the albies. We gave it a full day out here before having the guys break down their tackle and and start heading for home. Our ETA for fishermans Landing is 0600. Weather remains less than favorable. Justin
