The San Diego Anglers once again took to the water on their annual ¾ day charter on the San Diego out of Seaforth Sportfishing on June 12. The weather was great with 30 anglers on board on a mission to catch some Yellowtail. The previous day’s count (8 Yellowtail) did not look promising, but as seasoned anglers we were up for the challenge. Ryan set course for Los Coronado’s and we arrived at approximately 8:00am. The fishing was tough in the morning, but a few Yellowtail did manage to come over the rail. With the morning bite shutdown, we headed south to Sculpin Ridge for some bottom fishing. With a good catch of Sculpin in the bags, we headed back to Los Coronado’s for the elusive Yellowtail. This time the bite was on with a good number of anglers landing some quality Yellowtail to 25 lbs. The drawback was that we lost a number of Yellows to the seals around the boat. Still after battling the seals and a large number of tangles, we did manage to get 24 Yellowtail into the RSW along with 78 Sculpin and a few Sandbass. Dwayne Patenaude won the jackpot with his 25 lb. Yellowtail and junior anglers Jennifer Nakatani and William Proctor landed their first Yellowtail. Not a bad day considering that only a total of 29 Yellowtail were landed that day between all three ¾ day boats out that day.

Yellowtail and Barracuda was the talk of the town last month with some nice numbers in the local catch reports. Dwayne Patenaude caught a 23.4 lb Yellowtail on the ¾-day charter and Nicholas Meyer topped that with a 26.3 lb Yellowtail to lead the club with the largest fish in that category so far. Gail and Steve Ross were landing some nice Barracuda off Todos Santos and Gail again caught the biggest one weighing in at 5.4 lbs. Way to go, Gail! Gail leads the Women in the All-Around Angler standings and Steve has moved up in to 2^nd place. The Albacore are coming and I am sure there will be some changes to come in the standings, so get ready.

Lake Morena Campout

The Lake Morena Campout was a sizzling good time. Tom Sawyer’s tradition lives on: The Howerton-Burlason camp taught a new camp craft of pouring leadheads to several volunteers. Linda Rose taught the ladies how to make money leis. Gil Howerton’s eagle eye prevented a possible disastrous encounter with a rattler in camp. The kids enjoyed a giant Nemo piñata, the adults played horseshoes, and an egg toss cracked everybody up. Saturday night’s barbeque was terrific, and BBQ Mike outdid himself. Al, our Chief Rooster, kept the blenders going and presided over the best new Rooster Club member induction yet. A special highlight was the announcement of the engagement of Megan Burlason and Geoff Dempewolf. Sunday morning Glenn Gerber taught us to make “omelets in a bag” to accompany our delicious community waffle breakfast, a wonderful way to end a relaxing weekend!

Jun 27 |06:07

The conditions were perfect and the weather cooperated for most of the day according to the skippers with four boats heading south and two boats heading to La Jolla. Steve Sttacheski reported having around 200 Yellowtail around his boat on one stop but could not get them to bite. He tried everything possible throughout the day with only three Yellowtails to show between him and his partner Sonja Steiner. Bill Davidson and his crew reported the same. Yellowtail all over the place, but could not get anything to bite except for some Barracuda. But the Barracuda Bill did manage to land got him 3rd place in the tournament.

ADULT DIVISION:
1st - Steve Sttacheski

2nd - Sonja Steiner
3rd - Bill Davidson
4th - Sean Davidson
5th - Al Scheid (check spelling)
