Thank you Steve “Wrong Way” Lamb for all the great photos this year. (He can cook and wash mugs too!)
Congratulations to Harvey Schroeder for winning SONAR–a new Shimano rod/reel and a Searcher Trip in 2010!
There have been a few issues sending our recent e-newsletters due to a hosting change. We will be upgrading our service soon and thank you for your understanding.
Hey anglers, We had another excellent day of fishing at Cedros Island. Most of the fish landed today were in the 25 pounds plus size. We caught some mackerel for bait last night and so they came in handy for those better-grade fish. The method of choice was 40 pound line and 5/0 or 6/0 hook flyline mackerel. Everyone caught close to their limit of yellowtail today and so we elected to try offshore this afternoon. Unfortunatley we didn’t have any success with the tuna. We have great weather and we are going to try offshore tomorrow for dorado and yellowfin tuna. More tomorrow, Capt Art
Hey anglers, Today we had great fishing for yellowtail in the morning. Most of the fish are in the 18-22 pound range, with a few 25 pounders mixed in. Most of the fish were landed using flyline live sardines. A few fish were landed on yo-yo iron and dropper-loop. The weather is great with no wind. Since we are in the lee of Cedros, there is no sea. The water is 73 degrees and clean green–perfect for yellows. We did have an unusual catch this morning–one of the customers landed a 30 pound yellowfin tuna. We don’t usually catch tuna in the shallows here at Cedros. Looking forward to tomorrow, Capt Art
Tune in later to find out!
Hey anglers, Today we spent the day offshore looking for yellowfin tuna and dorado. Only a few fish were landed on the kelps today–it was pretty slow. We had good conditions with calm seas and very little wind, perfect for finding kelps. The water temp was 69 and blue. Unfortunately our efforts didn’t pay off. We are looking forward to tomorrow at Cedros Island with good reports from other boats today. Capt Art
Since our last fishing trip for 2009 left today, Capt Art selected the SONAR winner. This lucky person wins a Shimano rod/reel and a free 3-day trip aboard Searcher in 2010! (You too can qualify for SONAR next year–bring a friend fishing and win!)
