It was a rather slow day out here for us. Not miserably slow but it definitely could've been better. I'll just break it down for you so you know what I call a slow day. We caught 68 yellowtail, 4 bonito, 6 barracuda, 4 calico bass, 8 sand bass, 6 Sheepshead, 4 oceanic whitefish, 5 vermilion rock fish and 6 unspecified rock fish. We let some go too. We threw in the towel around 3:00. I may have a trick up my sleeve. I may tell you about it tomorrow. Anyways, we left the grounds because they're calling for wind here tomorrow and we hate wind with a passion out here on the ocean. I don't even like it on land. We're going to a less windy spot. I'm just not sure where yet. Find out tomorrow.
The weather now is fantastic. Very little wind and along with that comes very little sea state. It's nice. Steamy too. You should see Mark's shirt. It looks like he fell in the water. I offered anyone 20 dollars to wear it today but I got no takers.
The guys are out at the islands with just 11 anglers this morning. They have 30+ yellowtail so far with lots of fishing time left. Capt Matt suggests a 20 or 25 lb bait rod a 40 lb yo-yo rod and your favorite jigstick and bass rod.

Hi friends. Tough day for us down here in the magical kelp paddy zone. The weather gave us fits all day but we did manage to scratch a day together. The weather was workable but not favorable with 18 knots of wind and a short, medium-sized wind chop. I had trouble going any kind of northerly or westerly direction most of the day for fear of soaking our mast-man.
Even with the weather, we managed to catch 60 yellowfin tuna, 19 yellowtail, 17 dorado, and some skipjack off of a few jig strikes and multiple kelp paddies. We saw good water structure and found plenty of beautiful kelps but all we found were either scraps from other boats or the fish we did see, were just reluctant to latch on to our hooks. All in all, I'm happy with our day and I feel that we were right on par for the boats in the area. Guys have been fishing the same kelps for days and days --either in the local zone or this lower zone-- so I felt the need to get on something fresh and get away from the glob of boats in the area. It kind of panned out but like I said, I'm happy with our day --weather considered-- and our group hung tough with the sloppy weather.
So that is all. We'll be returning to the docks tomorrow sometime between 11:00 and noon, and we'll be turning around for another day and a half trip tomorrow evening. The weather is projected to come down and now all we have to worry about is getting a load of bait that doesn't die eighteen hours later. Take care and we'll chat with you tomorrow.

Tuesday Dec 4 looks to be the best weather window for those folks looking to fish with us. If yellowtail are unavailable we will target cod in 180-400 ft. Before anyone freaks out, this picture was taken a long time ago and was on a Comercial boat fishing in legal US waters. Come prepared for yellowtail and bottom fish.
