Hey anglers, Today we arrived at Guadalupe Island and we are headed for the south end. There have been reports of a few good-size yellowfin tuna there so we are going to try and catch a few this afternoon. We saw and hooked several yellowfin tuna in the 40-70 pound range. Due to light tackle and three white sharks, we were able to land only six. The largest was about 45 pounds and it was caught by long-time Searcher customer Bill Zemba of Castaic. All in all we had good action and we gave everyone a chance at a good-size yellowfin tuna. We also had some action on small yellowtail (8- 12 pounds) and we released several. We kept a few of the larger ones. Our plan is to try for yellowtail tonight and fish for a few hours in the morning and then head home. Last trip we didn’t see any fish that size so hopefully things are changing for the better here at Guadalupe. Capt Art
