A Very Special Catch Out of Morro Bay 🎣
Every once in a while, the ocean throws you a surprise you won’t forget.
We were absolutely thrilled to put this beautiful yellowtail on the deck. Finding one this far north was a huge surprise, and as far as we know, this is the first yellowtail caught out of Morro Bay this season.
We’re going to keep the location and depth to ourselves for now 😉, but we can say this fish was completely unexpected.
And what a fight! Yellowtail are incredibly powerful fish, and watching our customer battle this one all the way to the boat was exhilarating. You couldn’t wipe the smile off his face afterward—and those are the moments that make running charters so rewarding.
We don’t know whether this was a lone traveler or a sign that there may be more around, but either way, it was one hell of a surprise and a fish we won’t soon forget.
Congratulations on an incredible Central Coast yellowtail!
