Trip 10 Jul 23-28 (5-day) July 27 Mid-day Report
July 27, 2017
Hello all,
We had a little action on better size yellowtail this morning!! Once again live bait was the method of choice. Judy Kanouse landed this Jackpot contender on a live sardine and 30 pound Izorline. Capt Aaron gets the assist. Hoping for a few more fish today. Our plan is to go offshore this afternoon on our way north and find some tuna and dorado.

Trip 10 Jul 23-28 (5-day) July 26 Recap
July 26, 2017
Hello all,
We had an action packed day today with plenty of opportunity to land a yellowtail. The fish were 6-25 pounds. We released several of the smaller ones.
The primary method was a live sardine and 30 pound line, and a 2/0 J Hook with a small sliding sinker. There was also a chance for some rockfish as well.
Everyone had fun and plenty of rail time today. Wendy from Izorline landed this nice yellowtail.
Headed north for more fishing time.

Trip 10 Jul 23-28 (5-day) July 26 mid-day Report
Hello anglers,
We travelled north last night and arrived on the coast to try for yellowtail after breakfast. We have had steady action on small yellowtail with a nice mix of better size fish. Tom Fitzgerald landed this nice yellowtail on a live sardine and 30 pound Izorline and a 2/0 Owner hook.
The weather is awesome with a light breeze and sunny skies! We plan on staying here all day and we hope to continue to have action with everyone busy at the rail.

Trip 10 Jul 23-28 (5-day)July 25 Evening Report
Hello all,
The highlight today was a few nice dorado on kelp paddies. We travelled south down to 330 miles from home for some yellowfin tuna action. Unfortunately, the tuna moved without telling us where they went. We stopped and tried several kelp paddies. Janice K. landed this nice male dorado with help from Capt Ryan. You can see we had great weather again today.
Dinner was stuffed pork loin with fennel and apples with a dijon sauce. Roasted brocollini and carrots, white beans and fresh shallot bread. It was absolutely delicious.
More tomorrow,

Hello all,
We travelled south all day yesterday to get to the good fishing grounds. We had calm seas and good conditions all day. We didn’t catch anything of note but there is good tuna fishing on our bow tomorrow.
We have had a sample of yellowfin tuna and dorado here this morning so far. Looking forward to some more action today. Lori Sachau from Turner’s Outdoorsman in San Marcos landed this yellowfin tuna on the troll.

Trip 10 Jul 23-28 (5-day) Day One Report
July 23, 2017
Hello all,
Back out on a beautiful ocean. Lots of clean blue and warm water within 60 miles of San Diego. We headed to an area where there was a sign of good size yellowtail on kelp paddies. The first kelp we stopped on had a nice size fish that Willy Lewis landed – a 20 pound yellowtail.
Leaving the kelp, we put out the trolling rods and we had a bite right away: Bob Bower landed a nice dorado. So we have a sample of things to come… Not giving up yet (as of 6:30) Heading south all night and all day tomorrow to get to good fishing.
More later.
