Welcome to the NEW Fishdope website!!
Be sure to check out all the new features like all the different charts and the Bite zone chart.
Should be interesting to see how this works out in regards to where the fish are biting.
We are still working out the bugs that happen when ever you open up a new website.
Thank you all for your patience during this process.

Catalina Island
Wind was howling by 8am this morning. Water 68 to 73 along the front.
Still Squid everywhere along the front side of the Island. Catching bait is easy.
Yellowtail are all along the front too and are stuffed full of Squid. It’s getting tougher to get them to bite now.
Some of the better signal is up from Red Bluff to Starlight.
Contact Darrell on the “Mary Claire” at 949-677-0607 or CH 11. If you mention “Fishdope” you’ll get $10 dollars off on each scoop of Squid!

Capt Dave Hansen was out at the Island today with Steve Benafield and found the wind screaming down the front so they tucked up in tight inside of the Isthmus and whacked double limits of 3 to 4lb Calico Bass on Live Squid. They also caught a very lost and loney 4lb Sand bass
LA Harbor
Same story as the past week or so. Slow all over the Horseshoe during the daytime with Rockfish being the primary catch.
Things change during the night as the Squid being to show and with them are some nice Sand Bass. Most are legal sized with some pushing the 8lb mark.
A trick that is working good though is to bring 2 rods. Rig one with a Squid Jig and the 2nd one with a 1 1/2 leadhead. Catch a squid and use it for bait. The jumbo bass are being caught this way
The location of the Squid is at 33.38 x 118.11.

Newport Reef is also seeing some of this night time Sand bass action.
Same as up north the fish are good quality and want the live Squid. They will bite the frozen on a plastic though, just not as good

Dana Point
The Squid are gone now.
A couple of guys looked all up and down the area last night and found none.
Calico bass are wanting to bite if you have Anchovy….. Problem is no anchovy for sale right now. Just big 8 inch Sardines.
Some big fat Reds are biting on the stones off Box canyon if your interested in those.

Ponto South to Mission bay
Red tide is developing from Mission Bay on up to just above the Ponto are of Oceanside. Right now its just streaky but it could get worse with the hot water along that part of the coast and combined with all the green plankton inshore for the stuff to feed on.
Still some Squid right outside of Mission bay. It on the northside between the bay and Cyrstal Pier. Some Yellowtail are on this and biting in the very early morning and again late in the afternoon.
There was also a few Yellows seen and caught yesterday afternoon just below the La Jolla MPA above Crystal Pier.
32.47.58 x 117.16.58· Pacific Beach Artificial Reef – Crystal Pier
Coronado Islands
Nothing exciting happening. Yellowtail are around but not wanting to play much.
Try slow trolling a Sardine around through the middle grounds and down through the lee of South Island.
There are also a few big Barracuda in the lee of South Island

OFFSHORE
US Waters
Several radio reports of Bonito seen under birds this morning. No location given but the signal was close and clear so it was likely some place off La jolla
Off Orange county
Finally some improvment. Some Yellowtail and Dorado on kelps from the 267 down to inside of the 209 to the 181
No volume of fish. Just 2 to 5 yellows and a couple of Dorado on each kelp that is holding. but there could soon be a kelp with a bunch on it. Can’t rule that out now.
33.00 x 117.49 Lots of Yellow and Dorado on this kelp
32.49 x 117.45 Large kelp with Yellowtail and Dorado
Report from James
Went to the 267 all the way out to the 209 and then into Oceanside for about five different patties with nothing but bait Water temperature got up to 71.5
Crowded out there today. There was 18 boats on a kelp at the 267 that saw a couple of dorado. Try the 209 to the 181 a few kelps holding at least 1 fish.
Report from the Caguama:
Made a late-morning run out to the 267 area on Wednesday. Launched at 10am and picked up a scoop of excellent bait from DP (6-8″ healthy dines). 65-degree green water just outside the harbor. Seas with breezy white caps heading out, but still able to cruise at 25 knots. Tough conditions for spotting kelps, but managed to find a handful of coffee table sized ones. 72-degree blue, but not-so-clear water around the 267. Spotted a 6′ mako between the 267 and the 14. Couldn’t get my green horn on the chunk bait fast enough to keep it in the area…never saw it again. Wind swell picked up around 2:00. Headed for the barn at 4pm. As always…a beautiful day on the water!
43 Fathom Spot
Guys are finding some kelps out this way with Dorado and yellowtail on them. There is also several reports of Yellowfin on Jig stops and on Dolphin.
So far this continues to a rumor as nobody as brought anything back to prove its happening. It’s very possible though and this an area that they are commonly found this time of year.
There have been a few verified schools found under Dolphin outside of the San Salvador knoll in the past week and that is not far away to the south.
32.40 x 118.02 kelp
32.39 x 118.06 Meter mark of tuna on Dolphin
32.33 x 117.55 kelp
Report from the Tale Spinner
Left Mission Bay around 7 am on Wednesday. Went straight to the 182 stopped on a couple of patties with lots of bait but nothing else visible. Then made a straight shot to towards the 43 Fathom spot. about 3-4 miles short of the spot we found a large patty with lots of nice size Dorado. After multiple drifts we ended up with 9 Dorado and one small Yellow Tail. Lost another four or five Dodos too. It was not wide open but was fairly steady. We were there for about three hours. Had large Sardines which were super healthy all day. Caught a couple on chunks but most on live bait. We found other pattys in the area that had Dorado on them but no biters. Conditions started to get a little snotty and the wind picked up pretty good in the afternoon and then the wind backed off and it was a decent ride in. Sorry no exact numbers but we found about 8 -10 patties in the area. Watch c losely for the birds diving, that is how we even found this patty. Water had enough chop on it to make finding pattys a little tough.
Cortez Bank / Tanner Bank
Both banks have Bluefin on them. The catch numbers are down a little bit but still very respectable. Most are 15lb fish but some up to about 40lb are aslo being caught.
Big Yellowtail are also biting on both banks. Most of these are coming on the dropper loop rig.
Large Bonito from 5 to 10lbs are everywhere on the Cortez and big Whitefish, Sheephead and Salmon Grouper round out the excellent overall fishing
32.26 x 119.08 Cortez
32.42 x 119.08 Tanner
MEXICO
302
Kelps around the high spot are holding Yellowtail this morning. Not any mention of Dorado on them however.
Early afternoon saw some Bonito up under some birds
Here are a few numbers for kelps today
32.27 x 117.37
32.28 x 117.35
32.26 x 117.32
32.29 x 117.32
32.25 x 117.35 yellow kelp with Tuna on birds a few hundred yards away
425 / Upper Hidden Bank / 475 Knuckle
Lots of Dorado are on kelps now about 6 to 10 miles below the 425 and toward the Upper Hidden bank This stuff is also spread out towards the 475.
Some Yellowtail are on these as well. For the most part the Dorado are not wanting to bite very much but the Yellowtail are. The Dorado are 12-15lb fish and the Yellows are 6 to 10 with a few larger.
32.08 x 117.23 kelp

Report from Steve Massey on the Blackjack:
South 9 for all u want quality bottom fish
6 miles south of 425 followed terns to paddy loaded with YT on chew lots of dodos that would not bite
390
This excellent report from Garrett says it all:
Fished the 390 area on Wed.
Grabbed some nice bait from the boys in Mission Bay, 4-7″ sardines. Very small passes and light single scoop in a 36 gallon tank so we only had about 4 or 5 baits roll.
Weather going down wasn’t bad until outside and a little south of the 371 and then the wind came (just a bit before 7am). It got a little mixed up with the groundswell out of the WSW and the wind out of the WNW. Wind was 10 knots by 8:00am and picked up to about 15 knots by noon. Stayed that way until about 3pm or when we got inside the 302 on the way back up the line, then weather mellowed out.
Difficult to see paddies in the slop and you definitely didn’t want to be going west. Here are my notes.
8 miles N of the 390 the water was 69.5
5.6 mile N of the 390 at 8am water was 69.6
2.1 miles NW of 390 at 8:30am water was 69.1
On the 390 at 8:45am water was 69.1
Found our one stop shop paddy at 9:45am. Water was 69.2 and located at 31.59 x 117.48
Drift was very fast and we didn’t have a lot of bait or chum to keep the fish with us so each pass we managed 2-4 yellowtail from 5-9lbs. After about an hour of very quick drifts due east a few dodo’s showed up or decided to play. We had a single female of about 10 or 12 lbs fight for a bait with a YT (it was an awesome spectacle up on the surface). A new and over zealous angler put it in gear way too early and after one jump she dropped the sardine and we never saw her again. There were however a handful of small 2-3lb dodo’s under the YT, but they either couldn’t compete with the bigger faster YT or weren’t interested in our sardines or top water baits. Really fun day on the paddy and despite dumping three fish in the kelp it stayed hot for us all day. I finally got a fish to eat an Orca topwater bait. I’m not so sure that it lives up to the cost or their marketing. Had a lot of followers only to turn away at the last second. Maybe some unibutter would have helped? I’m glad I made the call to fish it nearly all day as we only found one other paddy on the ride home. It was NE of the 371 and had YT on it, but they didn’t bite on the single drift we gave it (same model YT, 5-9lbs or so). Only chatter on the radio was an angler or two near the 302 and guys fishing north of the Mex border.
In general we probably got lucky with the paddy. There wasn’t a ton of life out there. Only two small bait balls for hours of trolling around and a handful of birds here and there but none doing anything other than looking like we were. Had a single fin whale come up between us and our paddy as we were heading back to do another drift and saw a single pod of dolphin not doing much of anything just north of the 390. Water was blue, but not super clean like that deep purple blue.
483/500
This zone continues to be the closest spot for a shot at a very large Bluefin. The area is a 15 mile circle around the numbers for the 483/500.
The quality of the Bluefin is impressive. Only a handful of those 15lb models being seen. Most are 40 to 60 with fish well over 100lbs destroying gear.
9 out of 10 of these really big fish are lost due to light line or by being chewed off. Use the 50lb Flurocarbon and a 2 speed reel. Try using a circle hook to plant that hook in the corner of the mouth.
31.28 x 118.04 483/500
31.20 x 118.14 100lb class bluefin
31.32 x 118.10 spooled reels and broken rods on this stop. 6 landed out of 25 hooked
Double 220 and 295
Nothing new today so far but yesterday saw some Kelp paddy Yellowtail and a few Bluefin caught on the troll.
238 to the 1140 Finger
Really good Yellowtail action on kelp along with some good hits on Dorado by a few boats. Some bluefin and a couple of Yellowfin this morning round out the action.
The giant schools of Bluefin that Dave Hansen found were not there late yesterday afternoon but this boat did find a few schools and a couple of boats got about a dozen.
31.21 x 117.12 Bluefin
31.26 x 117.07 hot kelp
31.29 x 117.01 kelp
31.34 x 117.09 kelp
Off Colonet and down 160 miles
Reposting of yesterdays report as the word We got this morning is unchanged
Talked to one of our sportboat buddie’s and the word is that anywhere below the 31.00 line from 116.50 and out to 117.30 and down to the 30.00 line you can find scattered jig stops on Yellowfin tuna and a few schools of Big Bluefin.
The farther down you go the better the fishing gets.
Nearly 100% of the Tuna are west of the 117.00 line with the better shot at a Bluefin being on the western edge of this huge block.
Several boats are down this way fishing and all of them are making big scores.
On the inside of the 117.00 line is where you start running into wide open kelps hold zillions of rat Yellowtail and a few Dorado.
Only small numbers of Yellowfin are on these though at the present time.
Currently the current is running uphill and the fish appear to be moving up hill towards us as well.
General feeling is these fish will push up inside of 100 miles in just a few days to a week.
All reports, good, bad, or otherwise are very helpful.·
If you go fishing please give us a call or shoot us an email.

Welcome to the NEW Fishdope website!!
Be sure to check out all the new features like all the different charts and the Bite zone chart.
Should be interesting to see how this works out in regards to where the fish are biting.
We are still working out the bugs that happen when ever you open up a new website.
Thank you all for your patience during this process.

BAIT REPORT
San Diego Bait Barge 6-8″ Sardine
Mission Bay Bait Barge 6-8″” Sardine
Dana Point Harbor Bait Barge 5-7″ Sardine
Catalina Island
Squid all over the frontside of the Island. Almost any place you set up for the night will get a float. Even Avalon Harbor saw squid the past few nights.
Improved Yellowtail action on the western end of the Island now with Yellows seen and caught at Eagle Reef, Starlight and in west cove.
Guys down east are still seeing them at Hen Rock, K-20, and the East end.
Good Calico Bass fishing too. Red bluff is a good spot as is Hen Rock.
Everything is on live Squid
No idea where Darrell is. Try calling him, but he hasn’t been answering. Leave a message and maybe he will call you back.
Contact Darrell on the “Mary Claire” at 949-677-0607 or CH 11. If you mention “Fishdope” you’ll get $10 dollars off on each scoop of Squid!

Capt. Dave Hansen was at Catalina today, fishing with Terry and Judy on their boat “On Ice”
They fished along the front side of the Island and caught Calico Bass and stuff and at the end of the trip they tried a spot at white’s Landing. Here with the last few Anchovy they had they caught this pair of 25-25 inch Bonito.
San Clemente Island
Check to make sure the Island is open before you go! Some guys got chased off by the Navy yesterday.
The backside saw a good shot at White Seabass a few days ago.
Look at areas from the cove to around the corner to China Point and then up as far as the Dunes.
You need Live Squid for this!!

LA Harbor
Same story as the past week or so. Slow all over the Horseshoe during the daytime with Rockfish being the primary catch.
Things change during the night as the Squid being to show and with them are some nice Sand Bass. Most are legal sized with some pushing the 8lb mark.
A trick that is working good though is to bring 2 rods. Rig one with a Squid Jig and the 2nd one with a 1 1/2 leadhead. Catch a squid and use it for bait. The jumbo bass are being caught this way
The location of the Squid is at 33.38 x 118.11.

Dana Point
Mixed reports of where the Squid is. Some are saying it’s at the check point while others are saying it is between San Mateo and San Onofre.
No Gamefish on it right now and the Squid is said to be looking spawned out and has a bunch of finbait on it.
No anchovy for sale right now. Just big 8 inch Sardines

Ponto down through La Jolla
Red tide is developing from Mission Bay on up to just above the Ponto are of Oceanside. Right now its just streaky but it could get worse with the hot water along that part of the coast and combined with all the green plankton inshore for the stuff to feed on.
Still some Squid right outside of Mission bay. It on the northside between the bay and Cyrstal Pier. Some Yellowtail are on this and biting in the very early morning and again late in the afternoon.
There was also a few Yellows seen and caught yesterday afternoon just below the La Jolla MPA above Crystal Pier.
32.47.58 x 117.16.58· Pacific Beach Artificial Reef – Crystal Pier
Coronado Islands
There are Yellowtail at the Islands but they are being very touchy.
You might get some or you might not see anything at all.
The past few days and today have seen large meter marks of Yellowtail in the Middle Grounds but they just don’t respond to anything. Not on the sardine or the Yoyo Iron.
Some schools of Big Barracuda have been found at the upper end of South Island on the lee side.

OFFSHORE
US Waters
267
Still a kelp or 2 with Dorado on it. No volume though. This kelp appears to be the same one found over several days now. Last sighting that we got a report on was at 33.17 x 117.49
Look for it to be a mile or 2 north to nw of that number now.
209
Lots of kelp but none holding as the noon hour. Water temp 71 and clean blue.
43 fathom spot
Kelps out this way are holding Yellowtail. 1 of then was at 32.38 x 118.04 at around 10am this morning. This kelp is marked with a blown up white trash bag.
It was loaded with straight Yellowtail and no Dorado.
There is some talk of Yellowfin Tuna being seen by a sword boat spotter plane near the Head at SCI. This may just be a rumor so we are working on trying to verify this info.
Cortez and Tanner banks
Still very good Bluefin fishing on both Banks. Cortez gets the nod with better Yellowtail and lots of big Whitefish and Sheephead.
Tonnage of Bonito on the Cortez for the most part but some of this is on Tanner as well.
MEXICO
South 9 / 226 / 302 / San Salvador Knoll
Quiet this morning. This area has been the best zone to try and find Dorado on kelps.
Not many guys out today however so reports are slim to none.
Update: After the noon hour the action picked up with a few guys finding kelps with Dorado and Yellowtail on them.
1 was said to have about 200 Dorado on it
390
Got a report of both Squid and Bluefin near the 390 by a sportboat running 2 nights ago for the 483/500.
Squid were up high and drive with Bluefin running through them.
Then again last night the Squid were seen again but no signal of the Bluefin.
At this point today at the noon hour we have no reports of anybody going down to look at this.
Double 220 and the 295
Report from the Ella Mae:
Fished the 295-D220 yesterday. Lumpy to uncomfortable. Two BFT one on cedar plug and the other mex flag. 20#
Kelps are Infested with rats and 1 ill mannered sporty.
Eating baby YT this weekend.
483/500 to the Sniffer bank
The Sportboats working around a 5 to 10 mile block at 31.15 x 118.22.
The quality of the Bluefin is impressive. Only a handful of those 15lb models being seen. Most are 40 to 60 with fish well over 100lbs destroying gear.
9 out of 10 of these really big fish are lost due to light line or by being chewed off. Use the 50lb Flurocarbon and a 2 speed reel. Try using a circle hook to plant that hook in the corner of the mouth.
If you can score some green Mackerel that would be better than the Sardines too.
1140 finger
Last report from late yesterday had large schools of Bluefin just to the NE of the spot and about 15 miles below the 238.
Nobody around for miles. Kelps in the area are holding Yellowtail and Dorado. Many of these Dorado are in the 15lb class
Look around 31.22 x 117.08 for both Bluefin and Dorado on kelps
100 to 160 miles
Talked to one of our sportboat buddie’s and the word is that anywhere below the 31.00 line from 116.50 and out to 117.30 and down to the 30.00 line you can find scattered jig stops on Yellowfin tuna and a few schools of Big Bluefin.
The farther down you go the better the fishing gets.
Nearly 100% of the Tuna are west of the 117.00 line with the better shot at a Bluefin being on the western edge of this huge block.
Several boats are down this way fishing and all of them are making big scores.
On the inside of the 117.00 line is where you start running into wide open kelps hold zillions of rat Yellowtail and a few Dorado.
Only small numbers of Yellowfin are on these though at the present time.
Currently the current is running uphill and the fish appear to be moving up hill towards us as well.
General feeling is these fish will push up inside of 100 miles in just a few days to a week.
All reports, good, bad, or otherwise are very helpful.·
If you go fishing please give us a call or shoot us an email.

Welcome to the NEW Fishdope website!!
Be sure to check out all the new features like all the different charts and the Bite zone chart.
Should be interesting to see how this works out in regards to where the fish are biting.
We are still working out the bugs that happen when ever you open up a new website.
Thank you all for your patience during this process.
Catalina Island
Squid is thick and getting thicker. Almost any place along the front has Squid showing under even the smallest of light.
Last night there was even a float inside of Avalon at the pier
Yellowtail are being found at the east end, K-20, Hen Rock, Gilbralter, and Red Bluff. It’s all on the live Squid.
No big numbers of Yellowtail though. It’s just a few fish here and there kind of thing.
The Yellowtail are running from 10 to over 20lb with most those 10lb models.
They are biting pretty good today though up along the front at Eagle reef and to the west.
Darrell is MIA. No word if he got the boat fixed or if the boat is still down for repair
Contact Darrell on the “Mary Claire” at 949-677-0607 or CH 11. If you mention “Fishdope” you’ll get $10 dollars off on each scoop of Squid!

Report from the Legacy:
We fished every point at Catalina from Hen Rock to the V’s with fresh squid and saw no yellowtail . There was plenty of Calico and perch but all too small.
Of interest was the ride back. About five miles off Avalon, we had a double hit of Dorado on the troll. They spit the hook as they jumped out of the water.
San Clemente Island
Navy web site says the Island is closed today
Always make sure the Island is open before making the run.

LA Harbor
Best bite continues to be Sand Bass at night.
A trick that is working good though is to bring 2 rods. Rig one with a Squid Jig and the 2nd one with a 1 1/2 leadhead. Catch a squid and use it for bait. The jumbo bass are being caught this way
Squid is still floating at night. The location is at 33.38 x 118.11.
33.41.06 x 118.07.73 Sand Bass Junction
33.39.03 x 118.06.08 Izors Reef
Dana Point
If you can get some Anchovy the bite on Calico bass is pretty good. Live Squid would probably really get them too.
There is some squid at the Check point below San Onofre. Yesterdays report had it at San Mateo but that stuff is there anymore.

La Jolla
Report from Jeff:
Streaky and patchy red tide from mission bay to at least ponto. La jolla was gross. Decent water otherwise. ran offshore on the way back south and found tons of big kelps 3-6 mi off solana/del mar but all were dry. Clean offshore but not deep purple blue clean.
Coronado Islands
Report from Daft Boot:
Fished the Coronados today, 9/2. Arrived at 7:30 AM at Pukey Point. Lots of bait, and a few private boaters there. Drifted and slow trolled with sardines for nothing, even the sea lions left us alone for most of the day. Plenty of bait around, mostly closer in to the point. Talked to a couple fellow boaters who also had no luck. Headed across the middle grounds and down to south island, nothing going on there, so headed in around noon. Foggy all day. Water temps around 66-67, not as clear as I’ve seen it but not super dirty like some of the water we drove through to get there.
OFFSHORE
US Waters
Off Dana Point
Got a report of Dorado at the 267 where at least 1 of them were caught. It was on a kelp at 33.17 x 117.49
Report from Michael Webster:
Left Dana Point in the dense fog at 5:15 AM. The first paddy we found was at 33.17.660 x 117.44.716. It was holding a few Dorado. My buddy had one and lost it. I had a really nice sized one (maybe 30+lbs) and we lost it right next to the boat during the second gaff attempt! First gaff attempt failed! Crazy beautiful aerial show during the fight! We saw multiple dorado jumping out of the water. Dorado chasing bait all around! Our first 2 strikes and it was over. No more bites. We spent the rest of the day on the hunt… found about 10 to 12 paddys and that was it for the day. Back in Dana Point harbor around 4 PM. Long day… We had high hopes considering the first paddy was holding… oh well!
Inside of the 182
Report from the Grim Reefer:
Left Dana Point at 445am and headed to the 267 in the fog and darkness. at grey light visibility was about 100 yards. found no kelp at all. same at the 209. we set our gps to the 302 kidney bank. Found a kelp at: 32.41.535 x 117.39.375 holding 6 or so yellows. we got one out (8pounds) before a boat full of spear fisherman rolled up(FIND YOUR OWN KELP!). They saw 5 more under there. We left and headed towards the 302 where we found empty kelp.
The wind picked up at noon and we got the snot kicked out of us for 80 miles.
Cortez and Tanner Banks
WIDE OPEN Bluefin Tuna bite on Monday following the same kind of bite over the weekend. Also showing well are 20 to 25lb Yellowtail and hords of 6 to 10lb bonito making a pest out of themselves
The weather was great with warm water and flat seas.
This morning however there is 15 mph wind out of the Northwest again. What effect this has on the bite will have to be seen.
Email report from Lia at Newport Landing:
Hi Everyone
Amigo fishing Monday September 1st on 1.5 Day Cortes Bank trip had 80 larger Blue Fin Tuna from 10-40+ pounds, 25 Yellowtail up to 40+ pounds.
The water really warmed up and the weather has laid down with a ton of fish that have moved into the area!
Had an amazing day of fishing with flat calm water and fish all around the boat all day!
Thunderbird fishing Monday September 1st on a 1.5 trip at Cortes Bank sacked 211 Blue Fin Tuna and 30 Yellowtail up to 50 pounds.
They had a dream come true trip. They had a wide open Blue Fin Tuna bite all day. Mixed in with big yellowtail.
MEXICO
South 9 to the 302
A few scatterd kelps are holding both Yellowtail and Dorado. Plenty of empty kelps though.
JD on the Breakaway found a couple of the fishy kelps at 32.30 x 117.30 and at 32.30 x 117.34
390
Got a report of both Squid and Bluefin near the 390 by a sportboat running last night for the 483/500.
Squid were up high and drive with Bluefin running through them.
475 down to the 238
Report from Louie on the Its4Reels:
We were heading for the 475 with the intent of fishing north of the 238 when we found several spots of feeding and jumping bluefin. With only anchovies and spanish macks in the tank we chased them for over an hour with no luck. General area was 31.35/116.58. We fished several paddies for 10 firecracker yellows and 2 dorado (12 and 15 lbs.). Kelps were found in the area of the bluefin (31.35/117.00). Saw a few flying fish as well. Pulled the bigger dodo off a small strand of kelp very close to Todos Santos Island at 31.47/116.51. The strand of kelp had several terns flying over it and we saw 5 bigger dorado that were seemingly feeding on eggs that were attached to it. A couple of notes: We saw lots of dorado that would not bite but they were feeding on chunks we would throw. I also was able to hook one on the chunk by swinging quickly as it mouthed i t. It eventually came off. The best thing I did was drop hook sizes from 3/0 to a 1/0 and I was able to hook both dorado that way using live spanish macks.
238
Some good fishing happening down this way this morning. Most of it is kelp paddy Yellowtail but some Dorado and Bluefin are being found as well.
The area is on the bank and just about and to the west.
Try looking around a block centered at 31.37 x 117.13
31.36 x 117.14
31.39 x 117.14
31.39 x 117.11
Capt. Dave Hansen had a big day fishing with Chad and Hanna Fuller, Greg, Dave, and Tyler on their 42 Bertrum “Wide Open” while working the water about 15 miles below the 238.
At 32.21 x 117.07 they found huge schools of 15 to 20lb Bluefin up on the surface puddling and under birds.
They didn’t have enough bait to chum with but got 4 Tuna anyway.. At 31.22 117.08 they found a big kelp holding Dorado and pulled 5 of them off it.
After all of this they ran inside to get out of the lumpy seas and found another kelp at 31.22 x 117.02 that was jugged full of Yellowtail, Dorado and even some Bluefin.
Final count 4 Bluefin, 6 dorado and limits of Yellowtail.
483/500 to the Sniffer
Large Bluefin are tearing up gear in this area. many 40 to 60lb models with some monsters way over 100lbs
Most of the really big Bluefin are being lost due to light line and or extremely long battles.
Lots of boats working around a 5 to10 mile block at 31.15 x 118.22
Between the Lower 500 and Colonet
Same story as the past several days. Good numbers of Kelp paddy Yellowtail along with some Dorado, Bluefin and scattered Yellowfin.
So far most of the Yellowfin continue to be single or double jig stops without and bait fish. There is volume down below however and that stuff is pushing up the line riding along on an uphill current.
Look at a North-South block centered around 31.06 x 116.47
150 to 170 miles
Fantastic Yellowfin fishing continues. A few big hits on the Bluefin as well.
This where the mass of Tuna are but some of this stuff is pushing up the line. You can find scattered jig stops on Yellowfin all the way up to Colonet.
The Yellowfin are 18 to 25lb mostly with a few 35 to 45lb fish. The Bluefin are mostly 10lb fish with a few larger around 25 and the odd 50-60lber thrown in. At 30.59 x 117.00 there was a big score on the Yellowfin
Kelp paddy’s are holding insane numbers of 6lb Yellowtail. Almost to many to get a bait to the Yellowfin.
Most of the kelps are inside of the 117.00 line. A very hot kelp was found at 30.45 x 116.55
There are also a few quality Dorado around but no serious volume right now.
225 miles
Excellent Yellowfin bite down here. The Long Range fleet is focusing on this area now. Lots of 25 to 40lb Yellowfin showing.
This stuff is way down at the bottom of the 29.00 block
All reports, good, bad, or otherwise are very helpful.·
If you go fishing please give us a call or shoot us an email.
