Trip 27 (7 day) Oct 27- Nov 3 (Day 5) Ultra-limited load
Good evening anglers:
Today we fished the coast for yellowtail and had good results on catching some 16 to 25 lb fish. The best way to get a bite was on a dropper loop set-up and a sardine (click here for a how-to video) as well yo-yo iron using 50lb test. For success at surface iron fishing lures, click here.
The weather today was nothing short of fantastic with calm seas and sunny skies.
It has been truly an “epic trip” and we want to say a big Team Searcher “THANK YOU” to Thom C. and the group of anglers that joined us.
Here’s Thom with his quality yellowtail. We’re travelling north on Friday and due to arrive back to the dock early Saturday morning.
Captain Shawn and Team Searcher
