Trip 13 – 3 Day Limited Load 6/24/2024
Good morning,
We spent the last 24 hours searching for larger grade fish to wrap up our trip. Yesterday afternoon, we saw impressive signs of 50-150lb fish and went from spot to spot. Unfortunately, we couldn’t get any bites, though we hoped our luck would change after dark. When night fell, they all vanished and we never saw a scale. That’s just how it goes sometimes. We’re looking forward to getting some revenge soon.

Trip 13 – 3 Day Limited Load
Good morning,
We had nonstop action throughout the night, scratching away on 20-60 pounders. There was a lot of stopping and going with plenty of bites. Tons of fun! When the sun rose, we went searching for bigger fish. We spotted some, but not enough to stay in that area, though it felt like more were nearby. With good weather on the horizon, we’re hopeful to get back on the meat.

Trip 12 – James Thomas Invitational – Day 2
Good evening,
Last night we had some great opportunities on the 40-to-60-pound fish. One large school and a couple of medium ones plugged us up with just about all we can keep. Left the tuna zone in search for yellowtail and bottom critters along the Baja coastline. Although the yellowtail has eluded us thus far, we had some steady fishing on reds, lingcod, and other creatures of the bottom sort. We’ve now switched gears back into yellowtail fishing to see if we can add a cherry on top to an already outstanding trip.

Trip 12 – James Thomas Invitational (June 18-21)
Hi Anglers,
Good action last night on 20-60 pounders. Lots of stopping and going with some pretty good opportunities. Today we have flat calm weather. We’re going to make a tour while we have a good weather window and see what else is around.

Trip 11, Accurate Fishing Sponsored, June 16, 2024
Good evening,
Last night was as good as it gets on 20-60lb fish. Stopped the boat a few times before midnight and scratched a few of them around 0100. Then we stopped on a good school that stuck with us and plunked 1-5 at a time until the sun came up. At sunrise everyone went to bed as we slid east to look for the kelps. There we saw a few with yellowtail on them but no bites. This evening we did a little codding on the beach and now we’re heading back home.

Trip 11, Accurate Fishing Sponsored, June 14-17
Good afternoon,
On Friday, June 14, 2024, Searcher cruised out on trip 11, sponsored by Accurate Fishing with Matthew Elash. We drove until 1 AM when we caught our first fish of the trip. The rest of the early morning we continued to pick away, pulling in around 20 fish ranging from 20 to 50 pounds. This morning, we caught a 40 pounder and a few yellowtails on the kelps. Hoping for another opportunity tonight before the weather kicks up.
