Yellowtail Tattoos: Stunning Ink Inspired by One of California’s Most Iconic Game Fish
When we went to California earlier this year, we hit a remarkable window of opportunity for white seabass, and thanks to the efforts of Captains Oliver and Riley Ngy we capitalized with four big “gray ghosts.” As amazing as that was, it also left us wanting more. Yellowtail, one of Southern California's most celebrated game fish, is now at the top of our list for our return trip. They are hard fighters with vibrant coloration and many west coast anglers obsess about them – even to the point of getting permanent body art. Here are some of the best yellowtail tattoos we’ve found
In case you can’t tell from the recent spate of articles, we’ll be heading back to California to chase multiple species as soon as we can arrange it. If you’d like to get out with the Big Bass Dreams team, send us an email and we can make the introduction. Just promise us that if you get a yellowtail tattoo you’ll let us feature it on this site.
