Captain Brian Sims Reports that these 7 day Calico trips are like a "Half day trip on steroids!" with all you want fishing on calicos up to 8.0lbs. and big yellows up eating the plug!

Here is Leo Hill Sr with one of the first calicos caught.

Check out the dark colors on this bass. Wayne got this guy right in the kelp. (the fish was released after the photo)

After getting some samples at Ana Capa we moved over to Santa Cruz, and it was wide open calico fishing! Here's Wayne with a nice bass.

When calicos are biting it is a blast! (fish was released after the photo)

Here's Aki with one of his many calicos

Nice calico Wayne! (The fish was safely released after the photo) On Sportfishingreport.com trips, we STRONGLY encourage the release of the larger calicos.

Here's Christopher with a little calico. We got into a great calico bite. Most of the fish were small, but there were some larger fish lurking.

Deckhand Ricky with a nice calico. With such a light load, Ricky was able to spend some time fishing bass with us. Ricky is definitely fun to fish with!
