Howdy anglers, Today was very slow for us and actually frustrating in some aspects. Most of this fish has been caught during a grey bite and drifting, however we never found a school to stop on. We found a school later in the morning and it stuck with us for a while, but it was mostly “show and not much go.” We tried a kite and for once, I was asking for a little breeze. It was grease calm, making it hard to fly a kite, and once I was able to get the bait away from the boat, I went 0 and 8 on the kite baits. VERY frustrating! We’re headed home and hope to see ya on the water soon, Capt. Aaron

News from Alijos Rocks

Reports show excellent yellow-fin tuna fishing at Alijos Rocks. They are catching 30-60# yellowfin with an occasional 100# fish in there too. There are a few wahoo and dorado and yellowtail mixed in as well. We have a few spots open on our 7-day trips fishing that area departing 9/25 and 10/2.

Sep 13-Day’s end

Hello anglers, Well another excellent day of fishing here at Cedros Island! The day started out with some big yellowtail and a few white seabass. That bite continued with the smaller-grade fish biting for a while…smaller meaning 16 to 20 pounds and bigger meaning 25 to 40 pounds. The white seabass were in the 18 to 35 pound class. Some of the people that caught white seabass, got their first one ever so it was great to give them the opportunity. Everyone has enough yellowtail and a good time was had by all. We are ending our trip here and travelling home. More tomorrow, Capt Art

Hello anglers, Today was a phenomenal day of fishing. We stayed busy most of the day in various spots at Cedros and everyone had a great day. The majority of the fish were in the 16 to 20 pound range with a few bigger ones first thing in the morning. A lot of the fish came on dropper-loops and yo-yo iron with a few fish on surface plugs. We had 23 white seabass today which was a pleasant surprise. Hoping for a repeat tomorrow. More then, Capt Art

Sept 12-mid day report

September 12th, 2010|Captain Mike's Blog|

Hello anglers, I have a mid day report from Cedros Island. We had an excellent mornig with great yellowtail fishing and a few white seabass thrown in. Rob Lahue from San Diego had 3 white seabass in a row along with 2 big yellowtail before breakfast this morning. It was really good fishing starting before daylight with mostly bigger yellows and the white seabass. It’s a little slow right now but we are hoping for another bite before the end of the day.

Hello anglers, We are back in the fishing mode again and headed south to San Benito. We will arrive tomorrow afternoon. The signs of yellowtail are still good there, with other boats having success in the afternoon. The weather is great with light winds and calm seas. Capt Aaron had a great trip with lots of wildlife and plenty of birds during our annual pelagic bird watching trip. Mre tomorrow, Capt Art
