Trip 27 (7 day) Oct 27- Nov 3 (Day 4) Ultra-limited load
Good evening anglers: BOO!
We gathered a few more wahoo this afternoon before we had to leave for our next destination. Click here for some tips on the most successful wahoo lures. Most of our fish were caught trolling on Nomads and Marauders. We’ve really enjoyed this epic wahoo fishing for the last three days!
Today’s wahoo gang: Steven, Ron, Todd, John and Jack on one of the last stops today.
We will be trying for yellowtail (click here for the best lure selections) tomorrow along the beautiful Baja peninsula.
Wish us luck, we will check in with you tomorrow.

Good Morning Anglers,
Yesterday, we had so very good wahoo fishing with all onboard catching a few. (Need a yummy recipe for your wahoo? Click here for a delicious recipe.) Best way to get a bite was a live bait and 40lb or casting a wahoo bomb lure. Weather is beautiful sunny skies and flat calm seas. Going to stay in this area for today. Wish us luck. Heres John L. with a nice one. ~Captain Shawn and Team Searcher
