Tuna in skiff range

The great fishing continues off the SoCal coast and boats are out on the water in numbers rarely seen before. Many private boaters are able to get into the fray normally reserved for the larger vessels capable of longer range and handling rougher seas. When the tuna are just right out there in skiff range, and we're talking some quality fish, it can get a bit hectic.

The New Lo An released a striped marlin on an overnight trip. The Ranger 85 picked up their first ever opah. Nothing is surprising considering the water temp and lots of sign, like flying fish in La Jolla and "tuna" blue water right up to the beach. I don't expect any changes soon as we are in the middle of a normal season by August 1.
