As July turned to August this year, the summer tuna bite for the San Diego long-range fleet was absolutely on fire; as evidenced by the success found by 22 Penn Fishing University anglers who ventured out for a 5-day long-range trip aboard Captain Mike Lackey’s ‘Vagabond’, out of Point Loma Sportfishing in San Diego.
Know Your Birds
Many of today’s anglers rely on electronics and digital gadgetry to locate fish and to pinpoint productive fishing areas. But perhaps best and least expensive fish locator is your eyesight’s ability to spot birds’ working the fishing grounds.
Another Way to Fish
For easy freshwater fishing and a relaxing time on the water, try fishing a live minnow or small panfish. For some simple fishing from bank, bridge, pier, boat or even when wet-wading, hook the bait and carefully cast it into open water. Make the cast slowly so as to not snap the bait off of the hook.

For an angler, being outside and fishing in a short sleeve shirt with no one around should be enough to call any day a success. This day was about to get better. As we cast into a river with increasing water temps and a majority of the steelhead already back in Lake Ontario, our expectations of a tight line were low.

We enjoyed a full day on the river swinging 4-plus-inch flies and catching more than 25 smallmouth bass apiece.Under The Sea – Slings and Polearms
