Hey anglers, Today we had our best day of the season so far for albacore. We landed a total of 68 fish. Most of them were caught on live sardines for bait, with 25# line and no sinker. We had 15 stops today with troll fish in each stop, There were meter marks and sonar marks that produced bites also. We are currently 150 miles from San Diego and we will be here all day tomorrow. Looking forward to more fireworks with the albacore, Capt Art
This 1.5-day trip had 22 anglers and they caught 41 yellowtail, 15 bluefin and 29 albacore. The jackpot winner is:
Greetings from Searcher, We’re just finishing up the second annual KW birthday bash 1.5 day trip! Based on information received on the way out to the fishing grounds we opted to head about 120 miles down in the search of albacore, bluefin, and kelp paddy yellowtail. Our morning started out with a jig strike for two albacore, followed up by a meter mark that led to 15 bluefin tuna. After that we managed to pick off a few more albacore throughout the day and visited a number of kelp paddies for some really good quality yellowtail. Our count for the day is 41 yellowtail, 15 bluefin and 7 albacore. We’re all glad to see the fishing improve out here and the conditions look promising! So come on out and catch some fish. Capt Joe Santos and the Crew
8:30 a.m. report from the 1.5 day trip: We are fishing 110 miles southeast of San Diego and we found a school of 12-20 pound bluefin. We’ve landed 15 of them so far, with several more hook-ups. There’s also albacore around–we’ve got just two so far. The weather is good too. Wish us luck for the rest of the day! Capt Kevin p.s. Happy Birthday, Kevin!
Special thanks to San Pasqual Tribal Elders for joining us on this trip!
Hey Anglers, Timing is everything, including sometimes for fishing too! There had been good signs of albacore and bluefin tuna for the past 4 or 5 days, but not today. The fish disappeared today and it just so happens we’re out here on a 1.5 trip. Most of the fleet has less than 20 fish per boat–there is one boat with 35 albacore and another boat had a lucky kelp paddie for a bunch of small yellow tail. We ended up with 7 albacore, 3 bonito, and 1 yellow tail. The weather is good and hopefully the fish will reappear tomorrow or the next day. There are still some spots available on our next 1.5 trip, hopefully the fish are up and biting. More next trip, Capt Art
Hello anglers! We are leaving on a 1.5 day trip this afternoon and will report from the tuna grounds tomorrow. Wish us luck! Two boats from Fishermans Landing have been in the area over the last few days. One boat had 60 albacore and 14 bluefin two days ago, and yesterday another boat had 25 albacore. More tomorrow, Capt Art p.s. We have room on our Jul 1-3 trip, if you want to try your luck with these albacore!
