Trip Reports

Good morning,

Wednesday was another epic day here on the bank. In the morning, we had great yellowtail fishing, and the big ones were biting. We had easy pickings all day with the tuna. Camped out for the night and with any luck we’ll be back at it today chasing those yellows again. Hoping for another solid haul.

Good morning,

The Searcher set off Monday morning for our 4-day Izorline-sponsored trip, joined by pro-staffer Norm Fujimoto. Tuesday brought a great day at the bank, anchored and reeling in 20-40lb bluefin and yellowtail. We scratched almost all day, with plenty of time at the rail and lots of bites. After camping overnight, we’re ready to give it another shot today.

Good evening,

Had an amazing two days of fishing at the bank. Our anglers caught their limit of bluefin (18-30 pounds) and around 45 yellowtail (18-25 pounds). Scouting for more yellowtail before heading back home.

Good morning,

Out on trip #27, the Captain Potatohead Memorial Fun-Raiser. The past couple of days we’ve found some nice schools of fish. Catching quality grade yellowtail and bluefin tuna.

Good evening,

After a slow night of fishing, we found a couple of nice schools today with fish ranging from 20 to 60 pounds, and enjoyed some excellent fishing. We’re close to reaching our limit of bluefin tuna for our 2-day trip.

Good evening,

Awesome day of yellowtail fishing. Nice grade ranging between 15-35 lbs. Had a few pushing 40lbs.  Steady picking on the anchor all day. We went from sunup to sundown with nice flurries in between. Yo-yo lures seem to be the best.

Good morning,

Searcher drove out Saturday, July 27, 2024, on our 8-day with Turner’s Outdoorsman and Izorline sponsored trip with Pro-Staffer’s Lori Sachau and Wendy Tochihara.  We’ve had some good opportunities the past few days with incredible fishing on 30 – 70-pound yellowfin tuna.

Good evening,

We had some good opportunities last night on these big bluefin ranging between 130-180lbs. Later in the night we also scratched up some 30-80lbers.This morning we made a 90 mile move and it paid off. We got a yellowtail shooter this evening. Good biting fish 15-25lbs.

Good evening,

We looked at fish all day yesterday, mostly 150-200lb, but couldn’t catch them. As soon as the sun went down, we got a couple opportunities. Seems to be on the upswing.
