Hi Everyone

Outstanding sand bass fishing for the last few days with the Nautilus catching 128 sand bass Weds morning followed by 155 sand bass yesterday afternoon. Last night the open party twilight had limits of sand bass or 200 sand bass for 20 anglers. This morning (Thursday July 17) the Nautilus had 365 sand bass on their open party am ?? day trip. The Amigo on a ?? day charter this morning had 110 sand bass and 5 calico for 18 anglers. The sand bass are spawning and it looks like even more sand bass are moving in. Twilight and ?? day trips should be lots of fun. The ?? day trips have also been doing really well on the sand bass and catching barracuda as well along with the occasional halibut.

Warm water is pushing in from the south and there are yellowtail on the kelp paddies just off the coast.
