Fall is usually a great time to go fishing if you're looking to fill your freezer with great eating fish. And we welcome back the Ranger 85.

This fish is very rare in these parts and in fact none of our captains had ever heard of one being caught this far north. They are normally located far south of the Mexican water so this was a prized fish NOT for its size, but for its rarity.

This weeks fish report saw the yellowtail bite slow. Rockfishing, however, is good!

Here we are in early October and the fish report is still as good as it was in July. A few windy days kept us off the water but finding the fish once we got back out there proved to be easier than expected.

Fall Yellowtail fishing continues strong in the Channel Islands.
