Pacific Adventure Mothership Report
 

Left LA Sportfishing aroung 6:15, loaded up with anchovies at the bait barge and headed to Catalina. Arrived Toyon (spelling ?) around 8:45, crew got 15-18 kayaks in the water within an hour. Overcast sky and dead calm I headed out to 200' of water and started slow trolling spanish macs in search of the illusive YT. Spotted a ledge on the meter holding fish, dropped a 6X JR scrambled egg down and got goat bit asa I hit the bottom ( no wind or current, up and down fishing). Landed the goat (maybe 6 lbs.), dropped back down and hooked another. One more drop produced a 3 lb. rock fish. Trolled again for nada, headed near shore and C&R'd 6 or 7 small checkerboards. Fish and Game came by and checked licenses and catch, very polite. Started loading kayaks around 2:15, pulled the hook an hour later and headed home. Never saw any breezers or puddlers, several bonito were caught and no WSB. Crew did another great job. Ready for next trip but we need more time on the water (leave earlier and come back later ?). bosco

Ken,

Congrats on the jackpot:luxhello:, nothing but calicos for me. Got em on the iron and plastic. Next couple trips are supposed to be extended, leaving at 5AM and staying later. I had a 9" greenback out almost all day por nada. One toothy pick up and drop on the spanish.

No ghost love.....:(

Ken and Andy,
Thanks for the report, and sorry I was not able to make it this trip because of a work meeting. Congradulation on the JP for Ken. Earlier departure would be great especially if you be in Catalina at graylight:rolleyes:. I am sure I will see you on one of the upcoming trips. Still a great time and incredible area to fish. Was it the same area or did Kevin try a different location?
Thanks again,
Jimmy
