Fish Caught: Yellowfin & Skipjack

My brother & I went fishing on Sunday.  We caught 15 skipjack & 3 yellowfin just outside the nine mile bank. 

The skippies were wide open with jig strikes every 10 - 20 minutes. 

We threw them all back but they're fun on light line. 

Lots of life out there.  Porpoise, whales (were inside), lots of birds & yes we even saw kelp paddys.

On one paddy we saw a 3-5 lb yellowtail, but our monster sardines scared him away. 

A good thing though, he needed to grow up some.   The only other fish we found on a paddy that would bite was a yellowfin.  Look at the video.

For trolling we used a Pink & White (a skippy favorite), Purple & Black, Mexican flag & a Cedar plug.
