IN GENERAL Storms gone, dorado and tuna catches have begun to ramp-up and a

few stripers and sails are showing up in the pattern as well. All in all it is business as usual except for the off-color water that still persists close to shore. We are beginning to see a few areas that are cleaning up along Rooster Alley.

· OFFSHORE: Few boats make it tough to assess conditions, however the few

boats out have been scoring on tuna under the porpoise and finding a few

scattered dorado. Sails in front of La Ribera and stripers and a couple of blues

outside of Punta Pescadero.

· INSHORE: Still dirty, dirty, dirty, but beginning to clean up a bit.

· BEACH: Starting to find a few pockets of clean water and a few spots of bait.

BILLFISH - Pretty good show on the sails, maybe a handful of shots a day.

YELLOWFIN TUNA - Under the porpoise schools produced the best action with a

few gorillas mixed in, where’s the 12-weight?

DORADO - Scattered at best with no real concentration.

ROOSTERFISH - As the water cleans up it will begin to pick up.

JACK CREVALLE - Smaller variety under the receivers at La Ribera.

BARRILETE OR MEXICAN SKIPJACK - Look along the color break

PARGO AND CABRILLA - Wait until the water cleans up a tad.

SIERRA - Dirty water inshore makes it tough.

good action.
