[font "Times New Roman"][size 3]IN GENERAL: Saturday night brought some much needed rain that was enough to cause some run off from the arroyos. Since then the rain has been confined to foothills behind East Cape. It is really a good news – bad news story with the runoff comes more flotsam which usually provides cover for sardina which attracts the dorado. Tyler Foreman, Boulder, CO and his eleven year old son got their string straightened by some nice sized tuna out quite a ways out. Daniel Vapnek, Santa Barbara, CA found enough roosters, jacks and sierra to make his arm sore in front of Punta Colorada. [/size][/font]
