I went last week on Friday for the morning run after repeatedly reading about the incredible yellowtail local fishing going on for the L.A./O.C. local boats. I only got one bite but it turned into a 20 pounder. last week, the fish were out by the rigs.

I had a strange feeling that the fish were gonna bite today so i went back for the morning run and it was EPIC.

We probably hooked 100 fish and landed over 50. Big, badass 20-30 pounders. I went 4 for 6. My first fish hooked right when the boat stopped to start out the day was the most powerful. It sawed me off in the rocks. I got two 20 pounders after that and then I picked up my jig rod to see if I could get a little love with that. No luck but a few others scored this way during the trip. I went back to bait (big sardines) and got two more fish pushing 30 pounds each. Everyone at least got to tug on a big yellow today. There was many heart breaks but that's fishing. I pulled the hook out of two fish and wow'd 2 or 3 other bites. ALL of the sport boats and private boats were going bent. This week, the fish had moved onto the Horseshoe.

Today was a good day to be on the water!!!!! I'm glad you got into them really good, I also did well on the Southern Cal today and another buddy of mine was on the Sport King today and he hooked 3 and landed two #25 pounders. He said, "I wasn't kidding how big and mean they are!!!"

There was 45 on the boat. Seems like 40ish has been the average for that boat when I go. It fishes that many easily, comfortably. We heard a captain that day say on the radio that he thinks there is 100 tons of fish there.
