I got lazy, so I'm posting a two for one. Fished on the Pursuit out of 22nd St. Landing on both days.
ROUND 1- Catalina Island

A nice day at the island.

People waiting in line to get their fish clean.
According to 976-tuna the fish count for today was: 55 anglers who caught 15 Sand Bass and 438 Barracuda. My personal fish count for the two days of fishing was: 12 calico bass and 40 plus barracuda. All the bass were caught on the flyline sardine and the barracuda on the surface iron. Tady C, single hook, mint color on the slow retrieve was the ticket today. Thanks for reading and goodluck on your next fishing adventure, Pokerface.

Nice job on the bass and barracuda. Glad to see more and more big checkerboards biting at Catalina.

Hi pokerface12,

Great report and pics as always. For an old guy like me, a back to back is a killer !! Don't blame you on the report.

Me and my buddies an laughing like crazy... Man we're lookin' around and almost all the boats that are supposed to be at Catalina are running around at the 'Flats' !

Week before the New Del Mar of MDR was even at the 'Flats' ..... that's gotta be a record !!

Thanks !!

Thanks JJ. The calico bass fishing has been, just short of epic over at the island.

I hope so, these things haven't bite really well for the last 3 years.

Yea the whole fleet was there. There were boats from as far south as Dana Point. It was a zoo, but fishing was great though.
