No luck outside yesterday. Should have stayed inside with you guys. Felt pretty quiet outside with little signs of fish. I am 3 for 5 trips but will be out next week ready to reload the fridg. Just finished Tuesday's catch so will need to get with it early next week. Takes me a day or two to recover. Like fishing mid week. Lots of cars etc at launch when returning yesterday. Backed in again and happy to report all went well. If you are having problems landing, give it a try. Just be sure to keep bow into waves and all should be good. Got a little sideways yesterday but paddled hard to correct and good to go.

Your always welcome to stick with us. We ended up on a hot spot. 77 degrees and tuna within a mile of shore. Saw them yesterday. Dolphins in hot pursuit.

Well, I have caught and released almost all of my yellows this year, I've only kept 2 out of the 15 or so I have gotten this summer. I can definitely say it IS an easy task. The yellows shake their head a little but you can grab them out of the water, get a photo, remove the hook and have them back in the water in less than a minute. When releasing, hold them by the tail and get some water back through the gills and give them a solid push down and off they go with a strong swim back to where they came.
