Trip Reports

Hello anglers,
We are super excited to get our fishing season started this week! There is a slight chance for a large bluefin tuna on our first trip. It has been difficult to hook and land them but we will certainly try our luck.
We want you to be prepared so we recommend a 2 speed reel with 60# mono. You may use it for fly-lining a live bait or use it as a kite outfit. Also if you are a practiced caster, a long rod with 40-50# mono and a surface lure or large popper has been the method used recently. We hope to see you aboard soon!

Hello anglers,
We are winding down our maintenance period with final touches on the new bait tank and a few other items. We are excited to start our fishing season!
All the reports are good with good signs of bluefin tuna around with an occasional yellowfin tuna mixed in. The quality of the bluefin is AMAZING with lots of fish 40-60 pounds and some bigger fish being seen and caught – up to 200 pounds.
There is a chance to catch a fish of a lifetime! Looking forward to getting out on the water.  See you soon!
