well was gonna go out of the usual malibu boat the aqaurius yesterday but victor101 convinced me otherwise lol didnt take much 3/4 day to catalina over an 1/2 in local waters...no brainer there.

we got there about 5:20 or so. got our spots on the boat near the stern since the "REGS" it seems they get that area alot or who knows. we ended up heading out bout 6:20 waiting for a couple more people...didnt take that long to get out there but to fish that was another story...they took us like half way out to the back of the island past two harbors i believe. we didnt start to fish till like 9:45. im like they better be putting us on some YT or WSB for sure. but of course they were no where to be found.

finally started to fish and some bonito, whitefish, some calicos being caught. i was getting no love on the fly lined dines and chovies in that spot. stayed there for awhile and then we moved to another spot with not much of kelp patty but it seemed to be a good spot...people were catching bonito's n some calico's. after there for awhile we headed back past two harbors to like waters of like 20ft. this near us had his line in the water for no more than like 10 sec and hooked and landed a nice legal sized hali...only one of the day. also sheephead were in full force there..nice sized oned anywhere from 2lb to like 6 or so. stayed there for awhile since the bite was good then the capt decided it was rockfish time with the last hour we had b4 we had to go in. he drifted over this one spot bout 3 times. lots of boccaccio, tree fish, reds and random other rockfish caught there.

so daily damage for the day was
1 sheephead
1 boccaccio
4 random rockfish

victor101 damage
1 bonito
1 whitefish
1 boccaccio
4 random rockfish

so it was decent day for everyone unless u were at the stern of the boat with the REGS that were hammering calicos, sheephead, bonito and other decent sized fish.

it was also a comical boat trip yesterday. we had two guys, one from oklahoma and the other from louisanna. the two had been wasted from the night b4 :lol: so it was hillarious some of the stuff that came out of there mouths. the louisanna guy was cool...he was the mellow guy if @ that...but the other one was like the guy from THE BLUE COLLAR COMEDY TOUR larry the cable guy. he is the kinda guy u dont want to be caught dead around cuz u dont know what will happen when he speaks :lol: at the end of the day when we are like almost 30 minutes back he makes a big ole scene cuz they werent selling anymore water or anything. everyone was just laughin at the guy cuz he was making an *** out of himslef and lucky the deck hands didnt call the sheriffs down.

oh yea b4 i forget the deck hands where very helpfull on the boat...better than the clowns i had there last year when i went in august. couldnt get a fool to help u unless u literally paid then it seemed or had breasts!!!

til next time tight-ines

oh yea on the backside of the island when going to our first fishing spot in the horizon the site of seeing hundreds of dolphins swimming a straight line was awsome. site i never seen b4. i wish i was able to have taken a pic of it but my camera phone couldnt get the pic.

picks of on the way to our fishing spot

Hi osiito,

Outstanding report and pics. I was there .... well kinda there via your report!!

Regulars don't bother me as long as they ain't deadheads to boot! The Spitfire has numbers but I guess they didn't rotate which means the regulars stayed glued to their spots.

Thanks much,

JapanRon

ooooooh yea vic i forgot bout that :rofl: that guy was comedy. it was good fishing again too with ya and yea we sure are man. we gonna hit up one of them over-nighters to clemente or go out on this boat again. im more pulling for clemente since i like how that island produces good quality fish.


yea japanron they sure were glued to there spots. that boat has #'s for each spot so i figure it always like that. the regs were cool they just didnt let anyone fish in there spot...i got lucky on my sheep head. i was next to this older couple and they let me cast over them here and there so i could get to some spots to get the quality fish. if it wasnt for them i wouldnt have got much. plus like a dumb *** i coulda had two nice bonito if i wouldnt have forgotten to set my drag back to tight again :lol: owell thats fishing.
