This week’s weather calls for calm seas. Fishing has been very good for pacific snapper (rockcod), lingcod and halibut. Good grade of fish too. Salmon and tuna are longshots at best. Some boats will go out looking for tuna this coming weekend. The salmon have already moved up the coast and into their respective rivers for spawning.
Local potluck today for rockfish. A little difficult to get the fish biting but we found some willing fish. Nice olive, blue, brown and red pacific snapper.
Big wind this afternoon so we had to try really hard to find fish. Took a while but we found em! Thank you Ramsay for bringing your family from Switzerland to Monterey Bay. Glad they got some fish!
Back from commercial fishing and back in the saddle for charter fishing. Big day today for our friends from Scott’s Valley and Utah. Big canary, brown, blue, olive, and red snapper and lingcod today. Happy campers!
Our first halibut trip of the season and WOW! Our Nebraska team of three nailed the halibut today. Boated nine and kept the biggest seven. Fresh squid was the ticket!
Happy belated Christmas present to 12 yo Evan. Was supposed to fish when he was 9 but covid got in the way. Wow, what a banner day today with lingcod and lots of snapper. Caught all fish early! Great whale show today too.
Local potluck again today. Lots of fog with zero wind and flat calm seas. Happy Birthday Andy! Great fishing with you and the family today. Limits of quality snapper today.
Ran up the coats for our Jurassic Park trip today. Foggy morning with flat seas. The fishing was off the hook! Came home with limits for all (plus crew) of olive, yellowtail, canary, black, blue, china, brown copper and and red pacific snapper. A lot of fish were BIG!
Awesome local potluck fishing today. Still have the swell in town so the ride was a little bumpy but we scored good on the rockfish. Hot Bobby (Robert) won the jackpot with his last drop lingcod.
Still a swell in town but the wind’s have come down a bit. Ran a little offshore to fish and we got into the olives and blues real good! Nick won the pot with a three-pound olive.
Nice afternoon local potluck trip today with plenty of wind and plenty of fish! Our friends from Las Vegas were taking in the cool breeze away from their 112 degree days back home. 13 year-old Axle and 9 year-old Jasper were hauling in the fish like pros! Even mom and dad brought in a few fish.
Great day on the water today. Was flat as a pancake water and virtually no wind. We got into the fish big time! Olive, blue, black, brown and red pacific snapper.
Ran up the coast today for our Jurassic Park trip to get away from the wind. Water temps are still cold up there so it started out a slow bite. Came in closer to Santa Cruz and things went wide-open!
Awesome day for our local potluck fishing. Our friends from Redding started hauling in fish as soon as we dropped our lines in. Reds, blacks, browns and olive pacific snapper and a big fat blue lingcod to top it off.
Perfect weather and flat calm water today. The fall run salmon are here and there’s a lot of big fish coming up the coast now. Today our biggest was 25# and the smallest was 18#. Jackie, Pooja and Kim pulled them in like pros!
