We got our chance to enjoy some bona fide catching as the twenty to thirty five pound yellowtail emerged from the shallows with a insatiable appetite and aggressive Breitling Chronomat B01 Replica Hysek Replica Watches Panerai Luminor Power Reserves Replica Blancpain Fake watchesdisposition intent upon hammering almost every form of jig or bait that hit the water for the better part of the morning. What really stood out in this one of many incredible stops we have seen on the big yellows this season was the aggression with which these southern yellowtail chased and struck the jigs and baits. We probably witnessed a hundred different strikes where a charged up big yellow would explode on a flylined bait or surface jig mere yards from the boat resembling a good size tuna much more than a yellowtail. Needless to say the surface show was as much a part of the memory as the fishing itself that was absolutely spectacular from the time we dropped the anchor to the time we pulled it four hours later with a beautiful R.S.W. tank full of perfectly spiked, bled, and professionally handled yellowtail. To make the day even better, the weather was just short of flat calm with a comfortable, soft breeze to keep things cool and minimal seas making for an easy time manuvering around the deck while ten or fifteen fellow anglers battled big, determined yellowtail.

With as close to a "perfect" day of long range yellowtail angling one could ever hope for, we headed up for the offshore zones after checking a couple more spots in the late afternoon for just a few more unwanted yellowtail. Taking the perfect weather into consideration, we plan to put in a full day of looking offshore tomorrow working into an area where no others have been yet this season. Again we find ourselves in a position with a good catch in the hatch and the final quarry being some form of quality offshore tuna. To this end we will dedicate our final two days effort seeking the mother lode somewhere down below in the long range zone.
