Jul 16 (4 day) Poseidon Fishing Adventures
Good morning,
We got lucky this morning and scored a nice big kelp with a school of 12-20# yellowtail that were biting pretty good. Good action! We’re looking for more this afternoon.

Good evening,
It was a tough day for us. We got into a kelp zone late and there were just scraps left. So we kept rolling down and bumped into another large area of non-biting bluefin which we tried for a little while for one bite.
We did see fish on kelps, but we just couldn’t get any bites. So we’re going to try again tomorrow morning.

Good morning ,
We traveled yesterday to get to the bluefin grounds in time for a night bite. We saw very good sign throughout the night of 50-200# fish. They didn’t bite all that well, but we had a couple opportunities–once right when we got here and one right before the sun came up.
We’re seeing very good sign again with the sun up here this morning but they are not biting yet. Stay tuned!

The infamous night bite!
Good evening,
We looked at these same fish all day today. It was very frustrating at times since there are plenty of fish but it’s hard for us to get a bite, and even harder to land. We did manage to land a few and they were nice ones.
We still see it here before sunset and we’re going to see what the first few hours of the night bring, then move on.

Hello anglers,
After a very slow day and night yesterday we decided to head south for some action with yellowtail on kelp paddies. We found a few kelps that have some nice size yellows on them!
The weather is nice with light winds very little seas and the sun is coming out. More later,

Found the right patty!

Hello anglers,
We went west to try for bluefin tuna after getting good reports from the boats on scene. We had a great opportunity to catch bluefin tuna up to 180 pounds. We had some losses but everyone had a great chance. We saw fish almost all night until about 4:30 a.m. when the fish vanished.
We are hopeful for some action during the day as we wait for another chance tonight.
More later,
We stayed close to last night’s area all morning, and have seen tremendous schools of bluefin on the surface, eating small bait. Unfortunately we haven’t caught anything. We will keep working and hope for a repeat tonight! Very nice weather with light winds and a small swell.

Good morning,
We marked one of our kelps from yesterday with our satelite buoy and hit it a few times this morning We loaded up on it and took off around noon. The kelp paddy was flying to the south and we’re a long way from home.
We had wide open fishing on 12-20# yellowtail again. Very fun morning and the weather is nice as well.

Good morning,
We looked locally at some school-grade bluefin tuna yesterday and had no success. So we decided to slide down the beach last night.
We’ve spent our day kelping this morning and have finally found our first biting kelp. We’re seeing quite a bit of quality dorado and yellowtail on them. The first few kelps didn’t bite, but the last one did. The yellowtail are 10-25# and the dorado are 8-14#.
Good action, fun fishing, good weather.
Captain Mike and the boys
Quality yellowtail for Michele!
Good evening,
We had a big day today. We found a few more kelps that were biting pretty good. It’s the same grade of fish. Very good action on quality grade of fish. We were catching them every way you could think of surface iron, yoyo lures, fly lined baits, colt snipers .. all of the above.
We’re going to try again in the morning.

Good morning,
We are seeing this yellowfin this morning though they are not biting all that well yet. We have scraped up a few yellowtail and captured a dorado as well this morning however. Hoping for a shot this afternoon. Tough conditions this morning.
Captain Mike and the boys
Dorado for Mike!
Good evening,
Things started to look up around lunchtime. We had a good shot at these 18-25lb yellowfin. They were boiling all around the boat but it fizzled out after we caught a couple handfuls. We couldn’t get another one to go.
Then it fell flat so we started to work out to the west looking for a kelp. Tough conditions this afternoon. The wind has come down a little but its still choppy.

Good morning,
We made a 80 mile move last night and we’ve been scratching up some quality yellowtail here this morning. Most of them are 12-15lbs. The weather is a little better, still a bit choppy but much more manageable. We are seeing lots of kelps with no fish on them and lots of kelps with non-biting fish on them. Hopefully we can scratch up some more.
Captain Mike and the boys
Good evening,
We had a great day fishing these yellowtail today. We never saw a tuna, but we did have some dorado. Despite the sloppy weather we were able to get some pretty good hits on these yellowtail. They were primarily 12-20lbs. We saw kelps with no fish on them and kelps with non biting fish, but when we found one with biting fish, they bit.
Fun way to wrap up the trip after a slow start.
