Mike Lackey brought his Vagabond home to Pt. Loma Sportfishing October 31 after a ten-day trip with the San Diego Anglers Club. There were 17 fishermen aboard, and they visited Guadalupe Island during a brief open period, and then went down to The Ridge.
"The water was up to 83 degrees at the 38 Spot," noted Captain Mike. "We got out limits of tuna and there were a lot of small dorado, but the anglers agreed to release all of them. We only kept a few bigger ones. It was an excellent ten-day trip."
Bob McKittrick of La Mesa won first place in the jackpot for a 97.8-pound yellowfin he bagged with a sardine on a 4/0 Super Mutu hook. He said he fished with 80-poundSoft Steel Ultra line and 80-pound Big Game Spectra on an Accurate B2 600 N reel and a Calstar 700 H rod.
"I got him on in only 20 minutes," he said. "I really like this new reel."
