Fisherman’s Landing Saturday night: Dolphin’s 96 calico, Tomahawk’s 42 yellowfin, one swordfish
Fisherman’s Landing’s Saturday evening sheet is a different set of boats from the morning note already on the desk. The update posted Oct. 17, 2026, at 7:11 p.m. lists Bight Sportfishing with 1 swordfish for 1 angler, and Tomahawk with 42 yellowfin tuna for 28 anglers on a 2-day trip.
Dolphin ran two local half-days. The morning trip, 49 anglers, returned with 18 sand bass, 15 calico bass, 22 sculpin, 2 skipjack, and 1 whitefish. The afternoon trip, 47 anglers, returned with 81 calico bass, 21 skipjack, 3 yellowtail, 7 sculpin, 1 sheephead, 1 white seabass, and 1 barracuda. Together the two half-days are 96 calico and 23 skipjack.
The same update still points half-day anglers at Dolphin and says bass and bonito fishing has been strong the last couple of weeks, with some yellowtail mixed in. Sardines are on the boat. Friday’s Dolphin white seabass, Pegasus yellowfin, and Liberty call-in are the morning sheet and are not repeated here.
