Pacific Dawn called in 20 white seabass for Tuesday's efforts at the outer islands. They fished in a lot o breeze though, and couldnt make it out deep to go rockfishing. Our local island boats Island Spirit and Pacific Eagle put in a good effort but didnt come back with any excotics. Still lots of fish out there, so hopes are high the bite will be back on soon!

TACKLE: Here is a quick run down on what to bring when you come fishing. Squid catchers for making bait. Medium action rod and reel combo spooled with 25-30lb monofiliment line for the dropper loop. Medium-light action rod for throwing jigs and jig heads. Hooks 5/0 circle is highly recommended for the dropper loop. 3/0-4/0 standard live bait hooks are recommended for "fly lining". Bring a range of sinkers styles and weights from 6oz to 16oz torpedo, and 1/8oz to 3/4oz egg sinkers. Florocarbon leader is not a bad idea either. Jigs, like Salas or Tady surface irons in your favorit color. Jig heads like Gitzem 1/2oz to 1.5oz or Banana jig heads 1/2oz to 1.5oz.
