We had a full charter, and everyone was excited to get our second charter of the year off the dock as quickly as we could. Joining us all the way from Yuma, AZ was a group of 13 led by their newest member, Dave Shill. They filled the bait tanks with perfect sized Sardines and we headed south to start the morning off looking for Yellowtail in the 180 Fathom spots south of San Onofre. We caught a few rockfish, and quickly gave up the search. Next we moved closer to shore and anchored up on 6 or 7 different spots along the kelp. The Calico Bass bit fairly well, but it was not wide open; in fact they were definitely on the picky side, and there were very few fish over 14 inches that were in the mood to bite. Everyone caught fish and a most had at least one fish to take home to eat. The jackpot was won by Ron Withers with a 2.0# Calico Bass….I told you the fish were on the small side, but everyone enjoyed themselves nonetheless!
