To summarize the trip. We left at around 4 AM. Many people slept on our way to Chineese Harbor where one day earlier Captian Steve Kelly had put his anglers on a school of White Seabass that produced a 63 pound White Seabass. Our expectations were very high. When we arrived Steve parked us a squid ball. We caught a few sole and a Bat Ray. The Seabass didn?t show. We later made some great drifts that produced some fine Halibut. Once we got bored with that we closed the day with limits of Rockfish including some real nice Chuckleheads. Thanks to Steve Kelly and Woody for a great trip. As always were looking forward to more Island Tak trips in the future!
