Trip 11: 6 day (Aug 10-16) Guadalupe Island
Good Afternoon anglers,
This morning we had some tough fishing at the island. but still managed to catch a few nice yellowfin tuna. The sharks were not kind to us, so we headed off the island a few miles and managed to put together a very nice catch.
Here is Dale B. with a 50lb class yellowfin he caught on the kite. We have beautiful weather and all day left to fish still.

Trip 11: 6 day (Aug 10-16) Guadalupe Island
Good evening anglers,
After two days of anticipation we arrived at Guadalupe Island. We were greeted early with multiple jig strikes several miles short of the island. When we finally arrived on scene around 3:30pm, we located some yellowfin tuna on the machines and promptly kicked the anchor over. We managed to hook a few with the limited amount of time we had this afternoon.
Here is Ashley M with a nice 56lb yellowfin tuna.
We are going to stay here tonight and see what tomorrow has to offer.

Trip 9: 6-day (Jul 29-Aug 4) Izorline Open
Hello angers,
We had some more action on good-size tuna again today. The group was a little slow this morning after the last two days–they are tired! The participation was light at times but everyone had a chance to land a tuna. Here is Tom K with a nice fish from this afternoon.
We are headed north tonight with hopes of trying for a yellowtail on a kelp paddie tomorrow.
