Left the valley around 1 am and headed for Shelter Island. Got to the ramp at 3:30 am and what a zoo. It looked like a weekend. Got two scoops of so so bait and headed to the 302. Trolled the 302 for an hour or so and had two knock downs but nothing stuck. Started to troll to the 371 and found a kelp that produced one yellow a few miles off the 371. About a mile later we cough a few small dodo's that managed to shake the hook out. Put the trollers back out and not a half mile later we come up on a garage door size patty. We bring in the trollers and throw some chum on it to have dorado and yellows come up on it. We get our lines out and we have a triple hook up! It was great having to gaff a fish while holding the rod, I loved it! Broke one of the gaffs, it was a fun first thirty min. We made a few more drifts along this paddy and got nine yellows and one dodo off it. Trolled to the 371 heard a lot of radio talk earlier in the day but it seemed to quiet down once we were trolling out there. We had a couple more knockdowns but nothing stuck, two on the ceader way back in the line, the other on the bars. Trolled the nine on the way in for one more small dorado. Nice day out on the water.

Hate to do it, and I know I will be unpopular for this but have to say it:

10 yellowtail X 20 lbs each + 1 dodo X 10 lbs. 210 lbs of fish for what looks like to two guys.

Senseless slaughter. Could have kept half that amount and still had more fish than you can deal with.

Just another PB'er amongst (what did he say? it looked like a weekend out there) a few hundred on a weekday. Which will be the same for every other weekday and multiplied a few-fold on the weekend. Translation, mutiny and slaughter with a thousand PB'ers doing the same thing almost day in and day out... raping life on the sea.

And you guys say the sport fishing guys don't do a dent compared to the commercials. Well there are so many of you guys plus the party boats, that you (we) do.

Paddy, great report and pics as well!!!

Lucas is starting to look more and more like you every day since he is losing all his baby fat. Even Farmy is starting to look a lot like you these days. Oh crap, I prolly just ruined any chance I had to get on your boat with you....lol



AND

I am sure that all that fish will end up be consumed in short order. Nobody elses business what they do out there so long as it is legal. If people don't like the limits as they are, they should contact their legislators, not admonish other anglers on public message boards, IMHO.

I have been eating smoked albacore since every day since I made the last of my fresh steaks into grilled sandwiches. I will be sharing it with others tomorrow as well. Got mine near the 371 and there were still lots and lots of fish there when we left.

Just because it's legal doesn't make it the right thing.

A long time ago, it was legal to enslave people.

It's American to question what's legal and what is not and what one should act even within the confines of the law.

The legislators and politicians don't give as much of a **** as you think. They are not in the business of making the world a better place with change like Barack Obama. And personally, I just think he's a big egomaniac anyway but probably a better choice than McCain.

But lawmakers and politicians are in the business of staying in business and they stay in business through donations and lobbying which are made primarily by companies, in our case the fisheries.

They are blinded by the money because it is their job to keep their jobs and money helps it.

Just because it's legal doesn't mean its right. It just means you won't go to jail.

There is human law and there is universal law. The universal laws of mother nature should also be heeded by man.

Senseles slaughter? hows that so? it would be senseless slaughter if they caught more that theyre limit and then just threw the fish away. You cant sit there and act all PETA on someone cause they are choosing to keep their limit of fish. If you dont like what people are reporting, then simply dont reply and move on to the next report. Thats just my 2cents.

Nah, seriously, I think you should really consider that a lot of people do the same thing all the time.

Fishing is getting way more popular these days and nubes on a boat who haven't fished all their lives don't understand that counts have been down for a lot of species over the years.

You ever go fishing New Jersey dude? Have you seen what the water is like out there and how the fishing is? But it used to be good a long time ago. Well guess what overfishing did?

It's crap out there. So cal is gonna turn into NJ at the rate we're going.

I'm not meaning to be a buzz kill, but people need to learn some sensibility.

Any guy could have just as much fun catching a lot of fish, releasing it, and then just taking home a few fillets for the BBQ and do it again next week.

This is not a video game like PacMan where we're out to eat as much white dots as possible.

Read my post above about what I say about legal limits and the law.

It's also lawful for seiners to wrap a school of fish and then a school of porpoise with it too and then throw them away.

I'm just spreading my evangelism about fishing with sensibility. Catch and release and fishing for the sport and not for the kill is a good thing.

Those politicians work for me. So I let them make rules like that so I can catch all the damned fish I can eat.
I wouldn't even go if all I could take was one lil' 20 lb fish.
Spend $500 to get 8 lbs. of fillets? No thanks!!!

I guess we won't need to worry about you ever catching too many fish though.....

If you're spending 500 bucks to go fish to feed your family, I suggest Ralphs or the Asian fish market.

You can easily get around 80 lbs of yellowtail for 500 lbs and you won't even get a sunburn.

SAMIAM

I attribute it to either stupidity or lack of education.

I'm a trader, and I think there is no greater lesson in the laws of life you can get then by trading. In trading, pigs make money, bears make money, but hogs get slaughtered. You get too greedy and you wipe out. Same will apply to fishing.

By the time, I have grandkids we will be going on an overnite trip to target bonito.

If you want to turn Socal into NJ be my guest.

Lmao you are on a fishing site there will be blood and killing wow we got 11 fish for 3 guys not a big deal buddy stop crying and get over it and we left them biting we could have slayed are limit but we let other people put the hurtin on them.I think you need to worry about the seiners they catch a lot of the blue fine tuna before they even get to migrate threw are waters whens the last time we had a nice wide open blue fin tuna bite.So please don't get upset and go out there and go fish they are on the chew write now thanks guys for all you positive replies.I will smoke some yellows for the legends yummy.

Nice going out there guys. Great report.

When I go fishing its to fish for food. I don't catch and release. I don't fish for LMB either. If I happen to catch one of them I will release it because I don't eat them.

Just the way it is.

Pat,

I have to agree with SAMIAM. You should not be killing all of those Yellowtail without me there killing them with you. We could have made a bigger dent to the population dog. Looks like you did better than the last time we were out on your boat getting chased away by that lifeguard.

Thanks for the positive replies guys. It was a great trip, we had a blast getting the first yellows ever on the boat. I wish we could have found some tuna but they have been off the chew a little because the water warmed up.

As far as the tree hugger goes, if you were a REAL fisherman you would know that the amount of damage that sport fisherman do is very minimal. The tuna wrappers are killing our oceans but you would have no idea since you don't get off the keyboard. And a $600 dollar trip you better believe that we are going to try to bring home some food. Yes I can go buy it like you do but where is the fun in that?

Good job out there. Nice fish. If you want to avoid the zoo at Shelter Island, try Dana Landing in Mission Bay. It adds less than 10 miles to most trips and has more ramp and parking.

No not really....

Bonnine (mecclyzine) 1 dose taken at 10pm the night b4
2 doses 2 hrs b4 being on the water in conjunction with PS2 (I beleive) accupressure bands (1 on each wrist)

SAMIAM

Yes KILL KILL KILL!

kill them all! more blood. bloodydecks.com . slay them all

FYI guys I've been fishing since I was 5 and I used to catch yellowtail off the piers at Hermosa in the 80's. Of course that would never happen nowadays.

I was on a Spitfire trip in September of 06 and I slayed 4 yellows on a WFO bite when the boat somehow got 80+ yellows that day. It was total luck to be on that trip.

I'm guilty of killing more than I need as well. But I'm no PETA guy or a vegetarian. I'm just an avid fisherman, and love the seas and have respect for all the creatures in it. I've been fishing almost all my life.

It's your ocean and it's your call gents. Do what you want to do. I'm not gonna impose my beliefs on ya'lls anymore. I just got sick of meat fisherman who go out quite a lot during the season and I get confused whether they are sport fishermen or commercial fishermen.

You know what I mean. Well anyways, have fun.
