Thanks for the offer but I will be tuna fishing on a friends boat this weekend. I am getting a navigation system setup to use on the freedom boats. Once I get it dialed in you guys need to come out with me to see what a difference quality electronics make for locating fish. The Lowrance units on those boats are pretty much useless.
Fished Catalina today, backside east end in front of the palisades. Good show of small (4 to 6 lb) yellowtail and short barracuda. @ 33'18.894 & 118'22.115. depth was 40 ft.
We can buddy on a trip if you like, my reservation (weekdays) or yours. I can't figure out the messaging feature here so you will have to contact me or get my number from Andrew. My name is Glenn he knows me.
HB Skiff Fisher Okay sounds great we can plan a trip and then just all pitch in some money or something. My name is melanie and I'll get your contact info from Andrew next time I see him.
Nice. I am out on the little Calico Jack again Friday then I got a couple days reserved on the Cobia 22 CC in August. I still need to get my offshore cert. done with Pete before I can take out the Parkers.
I am going out Friday with another club member on the Parker. You are welcome to come along if you like. we will be going to Catalina looking for the bigger yellowtail. If you are going local Saturday try trolling Rapala X-rap 20s from the Huntington flats out toward the rigs and across the horseshoe. We got 6 yellowtail last Friday that way but you have to look for them because they have been moving around to different areas everyday.
HB Skiff Fisher I'm down haha any fish is fun. Saturday's are better for me just because Monday is school but I'll do whatever to get out on the water.
sounds good. I have a week day only membership. Fridays would be my day on my reservation. there is also someone else on this channel who is a member , maybe we can all go together.
Heck yea I have a full membership but mainly go out weekdays to avoid the crowd. I plan to go out this friday out of the San pedro location. How are you liking the club so far coming from actually owning a boat?
It will never come close to fishing on my Cortez 22 but it gets me out fishing. I like the way it is set up with the reservation system and it is way more economical than owning your own boat. My only problem is that the lowrance electronics on their boats are worthless but I would recommend the club to anyone.
Neither works well but for most of the members the electronics are fine. I had some nice stuff on my boat so I know the advantage good electronics can give us as fisherman. The plotter dose not have enough ram and updates too slowly. The sounder just sucks. I bring a Furuno GP33 external antenna GPS/Plotter with me. There's nothing I can do for a sounder so I just make the best of it.
Wow those are some low
the club has boats with a MK trolling motor? did you use it thx
We're going out on Saturday if you want you're more than welcome to come.

HB Skiff Fisher Okay awesome sounds good! Goodluck and hopefully you slay some tuna. 🤙🏽🤙🏽
Have you heard of anyone catching anything at the 150 recently? If not do you have other suggestions on where I should hit up on Saturday?
I am going local Friday . I will let you know what I see and pass you the numbers if I catch anything.

Great! Maybe I will see you down there. I am on the weekdays only plan.
HB Skiff Fisher I have the week long one. I gotta go fish with you man cause you just kill it wherever you go!! You're a fish whisperer haha

I have school so I don't think I'll be able to go but let me know how you do and then if you want you are welcome to come with us on Saturday.
Thanks for the offer but I might be to tired to do back to back trips after all the big yellowtail I plan on catching! Good luck on your trip!
Yeah that's very understandable haha. How did you do today?
Nice boat and thanks for sharing
nice! The boat club you joined sounds cool, how much to get out there with you? Im always fishing and sailing in LB
Are you free any weekend other than the following two Saturday's to go hit up the tuna bite that's going off?
sure, sundays are better for me. I have gave up on any hope of Tuna on a freedom boat this year. I am just about ready to go into rockfish mode.

Big fan of your wsb vids
The way you hold your rod under the same armpit as you reel looks so uncomfortable.
I get that a lot, ripped my bicep off the tendon a few years ago so my left arm is kinda weak.
@@hbskifffisher2021 oh so sorry to hear that. That makes sense.
Dude i didnt know you were a member! Lets go out sometime! I've been a member for about 3 months

HB Skiff Fisher are you using any of your own electronics? Is it the gps or sonar specifically on the lowrance you aren't too fond of?
