Locals look but find no more biters

MORRO BAY – September 22 Juan Pablo Esteban posted a photo of a large bluefin with the words “Out of Morro Bay over the weekend. 5 miles out!” It looked to be about 70 pounds. Pushed way forward, it looked even larger. This had to be checked out. Five

Checking in with Morro local Harold Davis of Davis Boats fame, he said “That was the only fish. Lots have tried but no success.” This writer asked if it was just lost, or were there more to see, just not biting.

His response was it was just one lost fish, noting however “Great water temp. Great water color Lots of whales and bait.” So we’ll see what materializes this fall.
