Friday morning, June 12, 2026, we left Fisherman’s Landing on Trip #11, an Accurate Fishing Sponsored 3-Day weekend with pro-rep Kenny Phillips. First night started off with a bang and we found the BIG BLUEFIN! Easily 100+ lbs. We were up all night catching. Today, we have been enjoying the good weather and checking out some kelp for a little daytime action. Tonight we’ll be on the hunt for some more action. We’ve got Joe “Speedy,” Kaden “Cheeto,” Rob, and Steve on deck and Josh and Jesse cooking up something good in the galley.
