Another excellent day of fishing for us today folks. We had one of our annual charters today with a nice load of 21 anglers from Rise City Church in Lakeside and headed across to the islands for our day.

We started in deeper water looking for the rockfish, we had nice quality but it was way to slow. We got a call from the other boat saying big whitefish are biting so we went.

After we had roughly half of the Rockfish we needed we headed up the island looking for more and slowly working shallower. Once we found another area that looked right it was game on again on more giant Rockfish.

We started our day out in the deeper water and had nice steady fishing on the big Coppers and Reds with a few Lingcod in the mix as well. The double dropper loops and live anchovy worked the best however we did catch a few fish on jigs

Heading in from a 1/2 half day trip. We had Beautiful weather. Went in search of some bass first thing in the morning. Got a good lick on some keepers

Capt Rafa coming in from another great trip at SRI. Fishing deep water was a grind for our 21 anglers today but the quality was phenomenal. Reds, coppers, lings and

We caught sand bass and calicos, but mostly sand bass, caught on plastics and Bait.

Very steady all day we also caught a few very nice rockfish sheephead and a few barracuda. A very light load and extremely good fishing.

Total count for our 21 anglers: 43 Vermilion, 155 Coppers, 10 miscellaneous rockfish, 2 Cabazon, 16 lingcod

After everyone had some fish we headed shallower to look for some surface fish and were able to locate another participating school of Sandbass and Calico Bass along with a barracuda

We started off Fishing in deeper water. Fishing was a slow pick threw out the morning. The quality was definitely there but the numbers were not adding up quick enough.
