Fewer Fish Reports?
Does relatively fewer fish reports lately mean people are catching fewer fish?
Nothing bit my freelined mackerel this morning except for a seal, eventually. I switched to a topwater iron for trolling and caught 3 bonito right away. I kept one that I'm afraid was damaged a little too much and let the other two go in healthy condition.

I had a few theorys...
one is : less of a bite and less fish to report. two : people have been catching fish and posting, and no longer feel the need to post yet again. three : the bite is really good or shifted into other areas where people tend to be more tight lipped about it. four : a combination of it all? |

Have been trying to give a same day fish report since I got back into yak fishing. Know how much I appreciate the latest intel when deciding on where to fish, time, bait location,etc. so just returning the favor thru my reports. Seems like this community is pretty small so have no problem giving out info to fellow yakers. For me, bite has slowed and have been wondering what has caused the yellows to go tight lipped. Water temp is still way warm so you would think yellows would still be biting. Since bait has been somewhat difficult to make, maybe it has moved out of the area. Wish I knew the answer but we still have a number of weeks left before the first cold front hits us from the north. October and early November can be awesome so keep up the reports and let's max out the rest of the season. Tight lines and blessings to all.

I could hear those engines screaming from Mission Bay all the way out where the 30 fathom contour intersects the canyon.
The sound was giving me goose bumps!

For me its been a little slower. Was out Sat morning till noon. Bait was easy and plentiful, with Green Backs and Spanish. Hooked up with a shark in 250 ft around 7:30am, then had about 4 short bites on the troll and 1 bite on the dropper loop. Finally got a yellow south of the launch near Marine Street. Smaller fish around 26", so back he/she went. Fish was caught topwater with a spanish on 25lb leader near kelp. A lot of boats out. Seemed like a lot of top water action and saw a decent amount of smaller fish being brought up and kept. I also saw a lot of rat yellows swimming around near the kelp and outside.
