Jul 22 (Jul 20-23) 3 day Limited load
Good morning,
We had a good morning! These 25# bluefin were biting pretty good for awhile. We managed to get one stop in before it was over.
We are enjoying the calm weather and biting fish. Been a pretty fun morning.
We’re going to try catch a few trophies this afternoon before we have to go home.

Good afternoon,
We drove around all night last night and it was pretty clear we were off the fish. We saw two schools at around 3 and 4 in the morning. Since the sun has come up we have been seeing good sign of these school-grade bluefin tuna. We tried a handful of schools before we got one to bite a little bit. We’ve been plunking slowly ever since. It’s light-line finesse style fishing. We’ll see what the afternoon brings.

Jul 11 (Jul 9-12) Ryan Bussell and Friends Open
Good afternoon,
We are scratching up some yellowtail this morning. It’s been flurry-style and a beautiful grade of fish. Yoyo fishing and fly line sardines are working best.
We’re going to do a few cod drifts this afternoon before we head home.

Jul 10 (Jul 9-12) Ryan Bussell and Friends Open
Good morning,
We were off the fish until early this morning though we did have a few opportunities throughout the night. We’re seeing good sign this morning and are picking on big fish now. They are 100-150# bluefin.
Captain Mike and the boys
Good evening,
We had a very long day of bluefin tuna watching. We’ve seen an incredible sign throughout the day of 25-150lb fish. We had a few opportunities throughout the morning but by mid day, they were impossible to hook. It looks like a good set up for tonight.

Jul 8 (Jul 6-9) Seeker Rods Open with Sophie
Good morning,
Continuing our 3-day Seeker Fishing Rods open charter, we scratched up some fish last night for the few anglers that stayed up and tried. There were some opportunities!
We’ve been plunking all morning on mixed-grade fish (30-110#, mostly 60#). Pretty fun fishing in sunny and calm weather. Enjoyable day so far!
