Good Evening,

When we got to the zone last night, we had a few good opportunities with plenty of fish to try for. This morning we changed modes and scratched away at some mixed grade yellowtail. We’ve had nice weather today and we’ll see what we can come up with tonight.

Hello Anglers,

Searcher left Fisherman’s Landing Tuesday morning on a 3-day trip, June 10 – 13, 2025 with the Pelagic Predators Charter. We’ve seen lots of opportunities, but fishing has been challenging the past few days. The anglers have fished hard, but the tuna haven’t wanted to bite. We’re looking for more opportunities before heading back home.
