Sep 14 (Sep 13-15) 2 Day Offshore, part 2
Good evening,
We had good daytime plunking during two long drifts today. It could be tough to get a bite, then we’d have 4 or 5 going at a time. Best set-up was 30# line and a small circle hook.

Good morning,
We saw and caught some very nice grade bluefin last night and are now seeing some 40# fish today. Anglers had good opportunities to catching a quality fish so far!

Good morning,
We saw lots of fish last night, but had a little trouble hooking them. We are currently on anchor, fishing for mixed yellowtail and bluefin.

Sep 9 (Sep 8-10) 2 Day Private Charter, part 2
Good evening,
We had a great day here today. We started anchored up on the bank and had some good action on 25# yellowtail and 15-40# bluefin. We left it before lunch. We were still picking but we wanted to mix it up. We had a kelp early afternoon for all you wanted dorado. It was full-speed aquarium style fishing.
When we got our fix we headed back to where we were last night and saw the same incredible sign of fish: miles and miles of all-size bluefin. It was quite a sight. We caught a couple more 30-40# bluefin and ran out of time.

Sep 9 (Sep 8-10) 2 Day Private Charter
Good morning,
We had excellent fishing last night. We stopped on a giant school of 50-150# bluefin and it stuck until we left it at about midnight. This last week there has been some excellent sign around and they’re biting.
We made a move out to the bank last night when the guys had enough of big ones, and we’re anchored up picking away on 25# yellowtail and 15-40# bluefin right now. Beautiful weather and good fishing, and happy anglers!

Sep 2 (Sep 1-4) 3 day Labor Day Special
Good evening,
Seems like things are on the upswing right now. We scratched up a nice day here, mostly in the afternoon on 60-120# bluefin. We had one good opportunity in the gray this morning, then a long dry spell, and then started seeing some good schools late in the day and pieced it together.
We ended our day with a nice sundowner picking on nice grade bluefin. It turned into some action on the lures after dark. It was a very fun afternoon. We’re going to mix it up and try for yellowtail in the morning.

Aug 31 (Aug 30-Sep 1) 1.5 day Let’s Talk Hook-up Open
Good afternoon,
We’re getting some opportunity here on 100# bluefin. They’re biting a little bit, but we can’t get them in the boat. We see good sign of big fish and very little sign of smaller fish. We’re seeing a good sign of dorado on kelps as well.

Aug 27 (Aug 25-28) Limited load
Good evening,
We had a tough trip this weekend. We are dealing with fast-moving bluefin and choppy weather which made it difficult for us to get on some fish we could catch. We’ve been hard at work in tough conditions the last couple days.
We did some good sign last night and yesterday afternoon way out to the northwest but and had a small window of opportunity in poor weather conditions. We lost track of it though and never got back on them. Just scattered sign throughout the day.

Congrats to Peter Thiessen on his 90# bluefin!
Aug 23 (Aug 21-24) Lady Angler Searcher Special #2
Good afternoon,
We got a little shot at the big ones last night…they are 100+#. After about 11 p.m. the wind came up and they got harder to catch, so we threw in the towel. We’ve been anchored up, pickng away at mixed-grade bluefin and some nice yellowtail today. It’s breezy out here but we’re scratching up a nice day.
