    Good morning, this is captain pablo fernandez. I ran the total on not us yesterday admission day had a good group for a bachelor party. We headed out of mission bay. We headed down to the ib pipe to check it out, is pretty slack tide. Not a lot going on. Lot of boats anchored out, get ready waiting for it. I'm sure they did. Ok. Anyway. Nothing was going on at all when we're down there and it was pretty early is about 7. By the time we got there was actually more like $630.00 and then we decided let's just go hit the coronado island. So we just jammed over to the current islands. Started there at the ribbon, cal checked it out. Um it is a little bit slow as well, that slack guide. So we just started drawing around that a couple of the policies. And then we just started getting into some good big benita. Like anywhere from like a 5 calendar all the way up to like a 15 pounder. And it seems like they chased all the all tail away from the island because we tried, tried and tried all the dollars. Bonita, so we got as many benita as a group wanted somewhere around 12 or something like that. Big ones. And then we came back to the ID pipe and we scored a couple of yellow tail and they are nice size. They were on the fly line sardine, and that was about it is a great day heading back home, right. It was perfect. And just a little bit stormy, not stormy, but a little bit choppy, only on from id pipe, but just the angle get dimension from there. That's all it was. Any of those beautiful day out there. If you need me to get out of here about and guide you 619-431-3070 or come out with me on my the Capital problems out think cell.
