July 9 — Day’s end

July 9th, 2010|Captain Mike's Blog|

Hello anglers, We had a tough day today with plenty of fish seen, just not a lot caught. We ended up with 36 albies in the 15 to 25 pound class. There were troll fish as well as bait fish. Some boats had better days and some boats didn’t do as well. There are still good signs of fish and one of these days they will bite! We plan to be there. Thanks to Patrick Gee for his help and great representation of Lets Talk Hook-up/On The Water Shimano Seminars. We look forward to having him back in August. We still have space on that trip. Don’t miss out on some great tackle to use and lots of giveaways. More next trip from the same area, Capt Art

July 9 — Noon report

July 8th, 2010|Captain Mike's Blog|

Hello anglers, We are 120 miles from San Diego trying for those darn albies again. We have 28 fish aboard so far and we see fair signs today, with fish on top and a few troll fish. We are hoping this afternoon picks up a little. Yesterday was better in the afternoon than the morning so we hope that happens today. The weather is still great with very little wind. More later, Capt Art

Shimano/Let’s Talk Hook-up On the Water Seminar finds Albacore by Pete Gray

July 8th, 2010|Uncategorized|

Our second Shimano/Let’s Talk Hook-up on the water seminar returned to the Fishermans Landing docked Thursday morning with a nice load of albacore and some very happy anglers.  Captain Art Taylor was behind the wheel of the Searcher and took our group of 29- 115 miles from Point Loma to the fishing grounds.  The seas were flat and the fishing was steady.  Captain Art pulled the throttles of the Searcher back about 5:30am and within minutes we saw our first school of "puddling" albacore and proceeded to start the day with a few "bait fish". The morning progressed much the same way, stopping on puddling fish and jig strikes.  Though the fishing was better in the morning hours, we had steady jig strikes and bait fish throuthout the day and early evening.  The bite seemed to shut off about 7pm. The total count for the day was 64 albacore from 15 to 31 pounds.  Most of the fish were over 20 pounds and several anglers on the trip caught their first tuna, including young Joey Johnston pictured with his grandpa Gary Dittmar and Searcher deckhand Dustin Madruga.

Many thanks to our chief Shimano/Let’s Talk Hook-up on the water seminar instructor Patrick Gee pictured giving instruction to some of the group. Thanks to Dana Landing in Mission Bay for coordinating the trips, Celia and Art Taylor from the Searcher for hosting the trips and Shimano for providing the finest tackle on earth for everyone to use free on the trips.
 

If you would like to join us for our last Shimano/Let’s Talk Hook-up on the water seminar, it is a great one- 3 day trip on the Searcher in prime time- August 7-10.  There are a few spots left, so contact Searcher Sportfishing at 619-2262403 or check www.searchersportfishing.com

Hello anglers, We finished the day with 64 nice-grade albacore. The majority of the fish were caught on live bait with a few fish on the troll. We saw good signs of fish today with action throughout the day and not too much time between stops or seeing something. The weather is great with no wind or swell and the forecast looks good for the next few days. Leaving again tomorrow for another 1.5 day trip with Let’s Talk Hook Up. Pete Gray made the trip this time and caught 2 nice albies. A good time was had by all. More to come, Capt Art
