Jul 11 (Jul 9-12) Ryan Bussell and Friends Open
Good afternoon,
We are scratching up some yellowtail this morning. It’s been flurry-style and a beautiful grade of fish. Yoyo fishing and fly line sardines are working best.
We’re going to do a few cod drifts this afternoon before we head home.

Jul 10 (Jul 9-12) Ryan Bussell and Friends Open
Good morning,
We were off the fish until early this morning though we did have a few opportunities throughout the night. We’re seeing good sign this morning and are picking on big fish now. They are 100-150# bluefin.
Captain Mike and the boys
Congrats, Ashley!
Good evening,
We had a very long day of bluefin tuna watching. We’ve seen an incredible sign throughout the day of 25-150lb fish. We had a few opportunities throughout the morning but by mid day, they were impossible to hook. It looks like a good set up for tonight.

Jul 8 (Jul 6-9) Seeker Rods Open with Sophie
Good morning,
Continuing our 3-day Seeker Fishing Rods open charter, we scratched up some fish last night for the few anglers that stayed up and tried. There were some opportunities!
We’ve been plunking all morning on mixed-grade fish (30-110#, mostly 60#). Pretty fun fishing in sunny and calm weather. Enjoyable day so far!

Jul 7 (Jul 6-9) Seeker Rods Open with Sophie
Good evening,
Continuing our 3-day Seeker Fishing Rods open charter, we were off the fish until late in the afternoon. It didn’t look good until about 3 p.m. We started seeing a good sign of 25-100# bluefin and we got a few shots at them. Very fun fishing this afternoon!
Captain Mike and the boys
Jul 6 (Jul 6-9) Seeker Rods Open with Sophie
Good evening,
We left the dock on our 3-day Seeker Fishing Rods open charter. The fish made a move out west throughout the day and we finally got on them right before the sun went down. We got a good shot on 20-50lb mixed bluefin and yellowfin. Fun fishing, hopefully it holds up!

Jul 5 (Jul 4-6) Let’s Talk Hook-up!
Good afternoon:
We’re on our Let’s Talk Hook-up sponsored 2-day trip with CCA’s Wayne Kotow as host. Giveways were distributed and we got down to business.
We headed out west last night to where we have been fishing and we didn’t stay very long. We stopped on a few decent schools for no result. It didn’t seem right. We made the decision pretty quickly that we were not where we wanted to be.
We ran back in 70 miles and we’ve had a few decent opportunities in mixed yellowfin and bluefin this morning. We’re not seeing a whole lot right now, and are looking for another stop. The fish are 20-40lbs

Jul 2 (Jun 30-Jul 3) 4th of July Special
Good morning!
We had some fun fishing last night. We scratched all night long–from sun-up to sundown–on 60-150lb fish. Short stopping, we never went long without stopping the boat and catching 1-5 at a time. We saw a lot more than we saw last night and yesterday.
The sun’s up now and we see them, though they’re a lot harder to catch.
Captain Mike and the boys
Good afternoon,
We’re tried to go yellowtail fishing this morning and it didn’t work out, so we’re back out doing some bluefin tuna watching now. There’s a lot to look at but they’re a little hungover. We have managed a few bites but they’re not coming on the boat.

Jul 1 (Jun 30-Jul 3) 4th of July Special
Good morning!
We had a good opportunity right when we arrived on scene last night on 60-150lb bluefin tuna. They were good biting fish, and even though they got the better of us we still managed to score a few.
We saw good sign the rest of the night but couldn’t catch it. Nice weather we’ll see what happens today.
Captain Mike and the boys
Good afternoon!
We’re seeing some good schools of 60-100+lb bluefin. There’s a little bit of opportunity to flyline a sandine but they’re tough to land on the 50lb. We’re boating a few here. Still calm weather and a bit of biting fish, so we are enjoying the day.
Captain Mike and the boys
Jun 29 (Jun 27-30) 2.5 day Limited load
Good Morning,
We landed on the fish right before dark and there were a lot around! We had good action last night on medium-large grade fish. We left just after midnight since we got what we wanted as far as bluefin goes. We’re going to try catch something else today.
Captain Mike and the boys
Good evening,
Fun island fishing today with a few shots at some big yellowtail. We saw a fair sign of 25-30# yellowtail, but they were hard to hook and harder to land. Plenty of other miscellaneous to go along with it. Nice weather.
