Hello anglers: We have awesome weather with glassy conditions, sunny skies and warm temps. The water is 75 degrees and blue. We had two stops on dorado this morning that were terrific. We found good-size fish, lots of jumpers, and enough fish in the water to make it look like an aquarium.You could almost pick the fish you wanted to catch. Ken Yoshida and Capt Art are pictured with a sample of the size fish we landed. Lots of fun!

Hello anglers: We travelled further south with hopes of finding some yellowfin tuna. Unfortunately we didn’t connect. We found what we were looking for–tuna associated with common dolphin in blue, 80-degree water. There was a small amount of tuna present, but we couldn’t get them to bite very well. We are headed north tonight and we will look for some dorado tomorrow.

Hello anglers: We started our trip a little on the slow side with windy conditions and the wrong day in the yellowtail zone. We saw enough sign of fish to stay and try the next day.Today we had excellent fishing with yellowtail in the 12 – 25 pound range, with most of the fish landed on dropper-loops and yo-yo lures. We are glad we stayed and so now we can check the yeloowtail box and head further south for tomorrow.

Howdy anglers: What amazing day we had here on Searcher! We found a kelp that was LOADED with 15-30 lb dorado and they were biting! i have seen lots of wide open bites, but never this grade of dorado. 
It was like fishing a aquarium–truly amazing. After we had our fun and left the fish biting, we looked for tuna. Unfortunately we never found them. So we’re headed in and Capt Art is coming back out for a 6-day trip

Howdy anglers, Today was a fun day! It started out with a really good calico bass bite while we waited for the weather to improve. Then the weather improved and we were able to get offshore to get some action on some really nice dorado. There’s a nice round of dorado for the whole group. The weather is getting better all the time and we’re hoping for some more offshore action tomorrow. Stay tuned for our last day of fishing.
Tip of the day: When fishing is good and they’re biting, don’t waste time when you lose one. Grab another rod and get a bait in the water!

Howdy anglers: We had another great morning fishing for yellowtail and so we’re working up the beach trying to find something else to catch. Our weather is very good still. Here’s a sample of the fish we caught. This is “Team Wisconsin” with family members Jim and Dan Berg and Tricia Ohm.

Howdy anglers: Today we had a amazing afternoon of fishing for yellowtail. We got our daily limit of fish and the weather couldn’t get any calmer. We’re hoping for some more action tomorrow before we head offshore looking for other species

A tip of the day; Traveling can wear on you, but the wait can be beneficial, like today!
Hello anglers: Yesterday we had some late action on yellowtail in the 14-20 pound range during the last two hours of the day. Most of the fish were landed using yo-yo lures. Today we had more excellent yellowtail fishing. Yo-yo lures and dropper-loop are the two methods of choice. They are the same size yellowtail as yesterday but in a completely differnet spot. Pictured is Capt Art and Brendan Applegate from San Diego.
The weather is awesome with sunny skies and calm seas. We are truly blessed this trip with great weather and great fishing.
