There was dorado early in the week. On Saturday not even yellowtail we're being pulled up. Four different cattle boats were fishing for calicos of the point.

I marked bait but I couldn't make some? Everyone else seemed to be having a hard time time too. Only saw one smaller yt caught the whole day.

Bait has been almost non-excitant for most. On Friday's or the weekend it has looked line a Walmart parking lot. most boat and kayaks that came out early are gone by noon because of how slow it's been. Every day someone get one, there are always a small number caught and most are smaller grade. I think the crazy water temp for weeks now has most to do with it, I have been seeing from 74 to lately 76.5 degrees. The 1/2 and 3/4 boats when they come in close are going for Calicos and rock fish and I have seen them in as shallow as 35', that's crazy. At least I have been getting a good work out pedaling the Hobie Revo or paddling when I use my Malibu X Factor, in the search for bait and trolling a swim bait or Rapala on one rod and the sabiki on another. Covered a lot miles. I guess I'll be in shape for when the Tuna are in Kayak reach.
