Angler Yanks Tails

Brian Kiyohara docked American Angler July 14 after five days at sea. After offloading the catch he weighed the best fish on the certified scales at Pt. Loma Sportfishing.

Jig maker Matt Salas was aboard, and he passed out some product that was put to good use. Matt had a nice catch of yellowtail on his jigs.



“It was a good yellowtail trip,” said Matt. “We fished at Cedros Island, and most of the jig fish came on surface iron. A good cast with the long rod would get a crash on the jig. The mint sardine was a good color.”

John Ito of Torrance won first place, for a 46.4-pound yellowtail he got with a blue and white Salas 7X. He fished with 40-pound Momoi line, a Newell 338 reel and an eight-foot Graftech rod.



“I saw him bite,” said John. “He swirled on it, and he freight-trained me for a while.”

Ed Royles of Rancho Palos Verdes was second, for a 34-pounder, and Gregg Dahle of Hermosa Beach won third place, for a 33.8-pound yellowtail he bagged with a Salas 6X Jr. jig in scrambled eggs pattern.

Nice fishing

See Ya
