"They were biting everything"

Hello Anglers,

We awoke this morning to discover that the weather, although still not great, had backed off considerably. Always a good sign. We started our day off in the same area we fished the morning before to see if we could get on some of the action we had yesterday. Things werent looking so great, as we werent getting much reaction out of the fish that were around, but they just needed a little time to get with it. We made a short move and dropped the anchor around a nice area of birds and with good current we were able to have really steady action from late morning through afternoon snack time. When describing good yellowtail bites we frequently say that "they were biting everything" but thats exactly what happened. Flylined baits, dropper loops, yo yo irons, and surface jigs all got hammered. There is definitely a good sign of fish here. So, like I saying, about mid to late afternoon is when we lost our current and the bite turned off like a switch. We spent the last couple hours of daylight pulling some bass out of the weeds. Since we got our quota of yellows we will be going offshore tomorrow is search of some tuna. Hopefully the weather cooperates.
