For Outdoor News Service
LONG RANGE AWESOME: the excellent long range tuna actioncontinues for the boats out of San Diego making 10-day and longertrips. Anglers aboard the Royal Polaris reported in Tuesday withgood action on 140 to 190 pound fish and a handful from 200-plus toaround 350 pounds. Add in excellent wahoo action on fish to 60-pluspounds. the Royal Star, American Angler, and Excel are all alsoseeing similar results.
MEXICO ROCKFISH BRILLIANT: the rockfish action in Mexican watersfor San Diego-based boats has been exceptional. While Californiawaters are currently closed for the bottom species, the Mexicanbite is unhindered by regulations that are less about protectingresources than making some environmentalists pleased. the overnightto 1 1/2-day trips are seeing limits of red rockfish from three toeight pounds, cow cod from 12 to 15 pounds, and lings from 12 to 20pounds on these trips. Add in a smattering of yellowtail on thesetrips. Even the half-day and three-quarter day boats are fishingcloser to San Diego and getting excellent scores, albeit on somewhatsmaller average fish. a couple of scores to illustrate how goodthis bite has been: the Legend had 30 anglers on a 1 1/2-day tripand it returned with 162 rockfish and 46 lings. the 3/4-day SanDiego with just six anglers returned with 34 rockfish, 15 redsnapper, six sheephead, and four ling cod. the longer trips of two-to 2 1/2-days are seeing even better fishing off Colonet.
SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA LOCAL: While the water is still very coldalong the local coastline, the spring-like weather this past weekhas resulted in some flurries of decent bass action off Dana Pointand kelp and rocky spots from the Santa Monica Bay to San Diego.the Balboa Angling Club also recorded its first white seabass thisweek. But most landings are sending few boats out because of therockfish closure. there are regular sand dab trips at a number oflandings along the coast, and there has been a great light-tacklebite on these fish with catches of 30-plus per rod common.
SQUID EVERYWHERE-ISLAND UPDATE: Bait-size squid are showing inexceptional numbers all along the Southern California coastline andlocal islands. Most boats are using this candy bait on their tripsto Catalina and finding a excellent bite on the perch, a few bonito, anda few calico bass on the kelp lines when the tides is runningright. But even with the squid, the yellowtail and seabass are veryquiet.
