Hello Anglers,

We finished our last day of fishing on a good note. Today we had very good fishing on 20 to 45 pound albacore with a few bluefin in the mix. Most of our fish came out of one very long drift where we were able to keep 3 to 5 fish going most of the day. Tomorrow we are going to be arriving at Fisherman's Landing at 0600 and Justin will be leaving on a Braid Products 5 day trip in the afternoon so he will be checking in during the trip. A quick recap of the trip we departed on July 16th and we fished on the first day out and had fair albacore fishing. The 17th we had what I would call excellent albacore fishing with some yellowfin and bluefin mixed in. On the 18th we looked offshore and had choppy weather and we picked up only a handful of 15 to 20 pound yellowfin. On the 19th we had very good yellowtail fishing on 14 to 28 pound yellowtail in flat calm weather and they put on a awesome show on the surface for us all. The 20th we worked offshore and had a very good day on 12 to 20 pound yellowfin, with good dorado and yellowtail and the couple of schools of bluefin we saw were uncooperative but they were around. And finally today the 21st. We had a good day on a mixed bag of fish today and we are going to be at the landing in the morning. Shawn and the crew

Hello Anglers,

Today we looked offshore for Bluefin, Yellowfin, Yellowtail,and Dorado. We successfully landed three of the four species with Bluefin being the ones we did not catch. We picked up some yellowfin off of kelps, sonar marks, and a blue whale that had a good school on it but they did not bite well. Our yellowtail and dorado came off of kelps and the yellows were in the 15 to 25 pounds and the dorado were 10 to 20 pounds...... Read More

Hello Anglers,

Today was a very productive day on yellows in the 15 to 30 pound range. We saw a whole lot more than we caught but the show on the surface of the water was a good one. The fish were up on the surface chasing anchovies and picking off red crabs splashing water all over the place. The weather was flat calm so they were easy to see. We are going to look offshore for other species so we...... Read More
