Sep 9 (Sep 8-10) 2 Day Private Charter, part 2

September 9th, 2023|Captain Mike's Blog, Trip Reports|

Good evening,
We had a great day here today.  We started anchored up on the bank and had some good action on 25# yellowtail and 15-40# bluefin.  We left it before lunch. We were still picking but we wanted to mix it up.  We had a kelp early afternoon for all you wanted dorado.  It was full-speed aquarium style fishing.
When we got our fix we headed back to where we were last night and saw the same incredible sign of fish: miles and miles of all-size bluefin. It was quite a sight.  We caught a couple more 30-40# bluefin and ran out of time.

Sep 9 (Sep 8-10) 2 Day Private Charter

September 9th, 2023|Captain Mike's Blog, Trip Reports|

Good morning,
We had excellent fishing last night.  We stopped on a giant school of 50-150# bluefin and it stuck until we left it at about midnight. This last week there has been some excellent sign around and they’re biting.
We made a move out to the bank last night when the guys had enough of big ones, and we’re anchored up picking away on 25# yellowtail and 15-40# bluefin right now.  Beautiful weather and good fishing, and happy anglers!

Sep 2 (Sep 1-4) 3 day Labor Day Special

September 3rd, 2023|Captain Mike's Blog, Trip Reports|

Good evening, 

Seems like things are on the upswing right now. We scratched up a nice day here, mostly in the afternoon on 60-120# bluefin. We had one good opportunity in the gray this morning, then a long dry spell, and  then started seeing some good schools late in the day and pieced it together.

We ended our day with a nice sundowner picking on nice grade bluefin. It turned into some action on the lures after dark. It was a very fun afternoon. We’re going to mix it up and try for yellowtail in the morning.

Aug 31 (Aug 30-Sep 1) 1.5 day Let’s Talk Hook-up Open

August 31st, 2023|Captain Mike's Blog, Trip Reports|

Good afternoon,
We’re getting some opportunity here on 100# bluefin. They’re biting a little bit, but we can’t get them in the boat. We see good sign of big fish and very little sign of smaller fish. We’re seeing a good sign of dorado on kelps as well.
