A lot of searching and a little catching

There was a dorado in the counts caught from a 3/4 day 6-pac and the tuna and 'tails are out there, but are not treating all boats equally. As the schools can move far in a day and they are scattered, it can be a lot of searching and a little catching or the other way around. Just know all the crews want to find the fish and work hard for their clients.

This weekend, the Bloodydecks Yellowtail Shootout will take place in the San Diego area so the near and offshore areas should have a few extra boats on the hunt. Be interesting how many sportboats get called in on a bluefin find by yellowtail hunters.

For those south of the border, there is another yellowtail tournament in Bahia de Los Angeles a few hundred miles south of San Diego on the Sea of Cortez. It is the 6th Annual Ralph “Padre” Lucas Yellowtail Tournament, June 25-27, put together by the very active Baja club, Vagabundos.

35 anglers aboard the Chubasco II 1/2 day am run boated 121 rockfish and 1 sheephead.

3 lingcod and 80 rockfish were caught by the 25 anglers aboard the Dolphin 1/2 day morning run. Their pm 1/2 day with 24 anglers at the rail reported 43 calico bass, 50 mackerel and 71 rockfish caught. 40 of the calico bass were released.
