I think I'm happy with today. Another dorado kelp sure would have been nice though. When I told the other boats we were fishing with what we caught today, they all said good going on your day so I guess I can't complain.
We started off at San Clemente Island yellowtail hunting. It was pretty darn slow first thing. We gave it a while staying patient but we could only take so much, so we explored. For nothing. By mid morning I was concerned I'd be giving the Jackpot money back. No cause for worry though. We went back to our morning spot and the handful of other boats that were chilling there bailed out so we tried it again. We stayed steady for a while catching yellers. Mostly smaller ones though but with a sprinkling of nice ones. It quit biting at lunch so we went looking for a dorado kelp. We found one. It had a great big ball of flats on it. Nice ones too. Some would call them !@#$ slappers. It could've hung around longer but we caught a couple per rod while they were around. We also caught a wahoo. Perhaps the first wahoo this boat has ever caught in American waters. I'm willing to bet good money on it.
And that was pretty much our day as far as catching goes. We fished more. We tried our yellowtail honey hole again but it didn't work out. I think we planned it out good though. We fished a lot. Not a whole lot of long periods of driving like you can get on straight offshore days. We'll be in tomorrow and I'm not sure when we're coming back out. That all depends on you. Whether or not you go 1.5 day fishing with us. Regardless we'll be back out Nov. 8 on a 10 day. Which by the way, you can still book on that son of a gun too.
Good evening and thanks again for tuning Polaris Supreme fans. What an excellent day today! The early morning hours were spent doing some looking around at different spots deciding where we wanted to get established for tuna fishing. The currents didn't really want to cooperate at first, but eventually we found what looked best and gave it a shot. It was a little on the slower side till things started to wake up, then the guys started to scratch away. We eventually switched gears into wahoo mode and that was a great choice. The remainder of the day we had our running shoes on chasing skinnies all around the boat. Stop after stop, they kept coming over the rail. The tax man had to take his piece of the pie of course, losing more than just a few to sharks, but never the less, I still call it an amazing day of skin fishing. We all look forward to many more days like today before we end the trip. For those wondering about the weather, you should be jealous. I don't think there is nicer weather anywhere in the U.S. It nothing short of perfect out here.
A+ fishing and top notch food, what more could you ask for on a long range trip. All of the guys are having a great time. As always, thanks for taking a few minutes to check in and don't forget, even though we are out here on the water, we will still be representing at the Long Beach Fred Hall Show this year. Make sure you stop by our booth and say hi to our crew up there. Till tomorrow, tight lines.
Jed and the Polaris Supreme crew
22 yellowtail, 65 calico bass, 1 bonito and 3 barracuda. Tony Brough and his charter group had good action fly lining sardines.
Weather kept us new shore today, so we targeted Vermillion Rockfish. Worked out just fine.!
