Jeff DeBuys docked Independence June 11 after an eight-day trip to Alijos Rocks and Alijos Bank with 31 anglers aboard. Chartermaster Modesto Alcala noted that the trip was sponsored by Fisherman's hardware of Huntington Beach.

"It's warming down there," said DeBuys at the scales at Point Loma Sportfishing. "It was up to 67 degrees when we left. This was classic eight-day spring fishing, with the tuna biting good on some days. The yellowtail bite was off the charts. E could have kept limits easily but we let a lot of smaller fish go."

Pete Vitkus of Lake Wholford won first place for a 93-pound yellowfin tuna he picked off with a flylined sardine. He said he used a 2/0 Owner Flyliner hook, 40-pound P-Line, and Accurate 665 reel and a home-built, seven foot Calstar rod.

Bobby Edwards of San Clemente was second, for a 75-pound tuna he flylined on 40-pound line, and Chris Cox of Placentia took third place for a whopper yellowtail of 62.4 pounds. The big yellow also took a flylined sardine, on 40-pound line. It was the latest in a series of huge yellowtail to be caught this spring.
