    8/7/22 So. Cal Mahi

    Got out with my dad yesterday for a local trip. Our choices were to run 40-50 miles for a shot at the triple-digit bluefin or stay local for a shot at the warm water exotics. We went with the more relaxing approach and launched late at 9:30am, picked up a half scoop of live sardines and made 10...

    October Tuna in So. Cal.

    Just a few photos from probably our last offshore run of the season. The fishing was tough, but we scratched up something. The tuna were putting on a nice show, jumping all over the place, but were boat shy. It was tough to get on them before they sunk out. There was a ton of life out there...

    So. Cal. Albacore

This year they've come inside much closer to the beach than the past few years, so it's only a 20 mile run from San Diego. We launched from Dana Point, so...

    So. Cali Giant Squid

    These guys invaded our waters and just won't leave. 5 miles off the beach, depth of 250 fathoms. Dropped a jig down to about 500 feet, and hook up a squid. Crank it up to the surface, and it will have a whole school of followers. Drop another jig in and instant hookup. As long as you left...
