Kenny Loggins at Catalina Island
 
Fri Jul 04 2008, 03:38PM

Catalina Island Resort Services Proudly Presents
KENNY LOGGINS

Sunday, August 10, 2008. One Show Only
After Show Mainland transportation Available

Call: 1-800-595-4849kenny loggins

In a creative journey that's encompassed over three decades of hit singles and more than twelve albums exceeding platinum status, Kenny Loggins has found his way Back to Avalon for the very first time...Avalon, Santa Catalina Island.

On Sunday, August 10, 2008, Kenny Loggins and his band will be performing for the first time in the legendary Casino Ballroom, a 1929 Art Deco masterpiece that sits on the edge of beautiful Avalon Bay on Santa Catalina Island.

Raised in Southern California, Kenny has followed his musical path up and down the West Coast beginning in the 1970's.  Originally a part of the duo Loggins and Messina, he has continued to perform and record as a solo artist and has written hits for many other artists.

Highlights throughout his career include Danny's Song, A Love Song, Celebrate Me Home and another signature song, Whenever I Call You ‘Friend', a duet with Stevie Nicks.  Throughout the ‘80's and ‘90's, Kenny has also reigned as one of the most successful movie theme song composers of his era, with massive hits including I'm Alright (Caddyshack), Danger Zone (Top Gun), Nobody's Fool (Caddyshack II), the Oscar‑nominated Footloose (Footloose) and For The First Time (One Fine Day).

On his latest album, 2007's How About Now, the two‑time Grammy Award winning superstar comes home to the soulful, roots‑centric singer‑songwriter tradition that first made him a household name.  Through his music we can enjoy the ongoing flow of life with loved ones of all ages ‑ as expressed by one of contemporary music's most emotionally perceptive singer‑songwriters.  Kenny's music is an experience to be celebrated on any and every occasion.

Islander Labor Day 3 Day Trip
 
Fri Jul 04 2008, 02:25PM

The Labor Day 3 day is an annual favorite. The end of August is an excellent time for offshore fishing. In recent years warmer water has made for excellent action on Tuna, Dorado and Yellowtail. A 3 day trip is an excellent choice for anglers considering longer trips as we have two full days to fish departing 9/1 returning 9/4.
 
For reservations please call Fisherman's Landing at (619) 221-8500.

Royal Polaris From The Deck
 
Fri Jul 04 2008, 10:31AM

Hi everyone;

Once again our weather was quite pleasant. No wind and just slightly roll, because of both a south swell and a northwest swell.

Fishing was excellent. We had limits of Yellowfin tuna with the largest about 90 pounds, caught by Manfred Schiruska. There were several other fish in 55 to 80 pound category, with a few 25 to 30 pound fish. The majority of fish caught were 15 to 20 pounds. We also picked up a single Wahoo.


We are now headed to the Albacore grounds and will fish Albacore Saturday and Sunday. The R/p crew.


P.S. There is now 1 opening on the July 7th, 3 day trip, give our office a call at (619) 226-8030 and talk to Scotty or Andrea'

Shogun From The Bridge
 
Fri Jul 04 2008, 10:24AM

It was a good day, or half a day I should say, on the cod grounds. Our group here is extremely talented at fishing for these shallow water reds, which took alot of the pressure off of the guy upstairs. The hot ticket is spectra with a short top shot of mono, a single dropper which has a sparse tied shrimp fly attached and a diamond bar on the bottom for weight. For our afternoon we looked offshore for not too much action.

Islander Trip Report
 
Fri Jul 04 2008, 10:20AM

Day One
We headed out with reports of pretty meagre scratch fishing for the fleet. That being the case we started northwest of central in terms of the area being fished. We began our day in marginal weather with high hopes, but despite our efforts we weren't able to locate a school. By mid-morning we began sliding southeast towards the previous day's grounds. We made a considerable move but enjoyed the favorable course as the weather increased substantially during our journey. Eventually we began to scratch away with short jig strikes and a few bait fish. Unfortunately the weather blew up to a steady 25 knots and continued that way into the evening. All in all it was a very tough day of fishing punctuated by the weather.


Day Two
We spent the night on the sea anchor as the wind continued to blow. It never really let down the entire day as we had another round of steady 25 knots. We spent the first part of the morning working up swell despite Mother Nature's best attempts to keep us down. Not far into our travels we began to jig a few fish with one stop showing promise in terms of baitfish. We captured a handful but it was short-lived. We scratched throughout the day catching anywhere from one to seven at a time but all together it was another challenging day due in large part to the weather. There is definitely a good sign of fish over a fairly expansive area - if we catch a break from the wind there is a very good chance these fish will bite. We're out again tonight on a 1.5 day - we'll keep you posted.

Point Loma Sportfishing The AA Report
 
Fri Jul 04 2008, 10:15AM

PICK, PICK, PICK


First of all, I'd like to comment on the weather, it was aalll right. Fishing has been the same for the last few days, in that Luck has come into play and again today, that was the case more than once on the Radio waves.

We ended our day with 60 Albacore, which was pretty much the average score, unless you were the token couple of boats that got a super-stop.


We would like to say Thank You to all of the 4th of July Gang for coming out with us on this trip. It is just about the same group of folks every year and it was great to see everyone and we have a good time every year.


The photo of the day is some of the gang strutting their stuff.
