Report on September 11, 2003 (Thursday)
Way Up North- Avila/Monterey
75+ albies for 3 boats at Chris's.
Up North- Channel Islands
Lots of rockfish but nothing else special.
LA Area- Catalina Island
Once again the yellow bite is down and up and down.
Two grades of fish 30 pounders or 5 pounders.
Further South- San Clemente
The bite on yellows continues but not impressive.
San Diego- Local and Offshore
Lots of fish offshore with a mixed bag for the local boats.
LA Local
Almost as bad as San Diego. Just about every species is bite in small numbers somewhere from MDR to Newport. ha ha

FANTASTIC ALBACORE BITE UP IN AVILA AND MONTEREY! 150+ ON A NUMBER OF BOATS! ESPECIALLY CHRIS'S
BOAT TRAFFIC IS KILLING THE YELLOW BITE A CATALINA FOR MANY SPORTIES! EXAMPLE: ONE BOAT 90 ANGLERS 8 YELLOWS.
Way Up North- Avila and Monterey
Ablacore galore.
Up North- Channel Islands
Lots of rockfish and red snappers.
LA Area- Catalina Island
Yellows slow for many sporties but it seems the 15 and 6 packs did OK.
Further South- San Clemente
I'll bet less traffic helped their counts.
San Diego- Local and Offshore
Local fishing pretty good to fantastic off the kelp for yellows, etc. Offshore is good but not outstanding with a continuing mixed bag.
LA Local
It's almost a joke excepting MDR with red snappers and decent bites of a number of species way down by Newport.

Not much activity as anglers are few

rockfish and red snapper are the main fish species caught.
LA Area- Catalina Island
A few yellows, bonito, barracuda, bass, halibut, and sheephead are being caught. Water temp between 69-70 degrees.
Further South- San Clemente
Fish are there but the bite insn't.
San Diego- Local and Offshore
Local not very good while offshore boats are doing well with 5 different species.

In a simple word 'lousy' that is unless you like shallow water rock fish.
