Today was our premier half day morning Rockfish trip and it went great. Deckhand Alfredo and 12 anglers on deck landed 116 fish! Nice Yellowtails, Olives, fat Blues and a spattering of Gophers and Starry Rockfish. Half of the fishers were young kids out for their first boat trip and they did awesome. I’m very…
The swell is still up from yesterday’s storm but it looks like it’s starting to subside already. The residual swell made for hard work on the fishing grounds though. Deckhand Kevin is finally back from Texas after losing his home from the Carmel valley fires. It’s great to have him back out with us working…
We spent our entire morning trip waiting for the bad weather that was forecasted to show up and it finally did. Around 2:30 the wind started cranking up which made for some rough stuff. We want everyone to have a good time, so I called the shop and let everyone know that the weather was…
Today was a pretty good day for us. Deckhand Daniel and I set off with 6 anglers for Rockfish. The weather was a chief concern as the forecast was calling for some serious weather later in the day, but it was holding pretty good locally. We fished whole squid which produced excellent fish on a…
We set out on our second trip to find less than ideal sea conditions. The fish weren’t hungry. We moved around the Pacific Grove water front trying to find better conditions and hungrier fish. No such luck. The decision was made to go into the middle of the bay to find find the elusive rock…
Trip number one in the books with limits of rock fish and 3 lingcod. The fish were taking their sweet time but we got the job done. Now onto trip number two. Results to come this evening. Stay Tuned, Capt. Rod
This afternoon Deckhand Alfredo, trainee Caila and I set off with 15 anglers for Rockfish. The weather was just a little chunky but not bad. We hit the shallow water and really nailed the Blues and Yellows. One of the guys fishing right outside my door caught a great Tree fish. I told him that…
Blue! Blue, blue, blue and blue! Finally after weeks of smoke and fog choking out the sun, the sun broke through. The ocean and clouds and skies were beautiful. 16 Anglers and Deckhand Andrew had a good time on the water today. I started the day with ambitions of Point Sur, but after checking the…
What a day we had today. Set out with 10 anglers, 1 ride along and Deckhand Daniel for Rockfish. Since the weather was so good and it was a light load, I decided today was a good day for live bait Rockfish. The bait didn’t come easy today like it has been. We fished bait…
Well, no Halibut today, but we smashed big slob Rockfish in shallow water. Our 6 anglers caught plenty of perfect squid and the biggest sardine I’ve ever seen. No joke, that Sardine was 12 inches! Que five dollar foot long song. After several drifts with no Halibut, we let the boat drift over the rocks.…
