Capt. Mason Stoller says: Crazy crowds and sea lions // Yellowtail pictures just don’t look as good after a sh*% gaff shot due to ripping it away from sea lions, then sitting on the deck as you hook and lose two more. Just when you think you’ve ditched the crowds and find a little zone to work, the fur bags come in thick. Great job by Andy pulling hard and getting this fish to the boat for some excellent Labor Day sashimi!! Looked out behind Catalina for the big bluefin and found very hot, green water with plenty of birds but no signs of tuna. Hopefully I’ll get a few more shots within range this year.
