Trip 18, Seeker Rods Sponsored, July 6-9
Good afternoon,
Over the past few days we’ve been seeing good signs of mixed-grade fish weighing between 40 and 200 lbs. They were very difficult to work with during the day, but we’ve been getting our shots and capitalizing on our opportunities after sunset.

Trip 17, 4th of July Special, July 3-6
Good evening,
Trip 17, 4th of July Special, July 3-6, 2024. We have had good opportunities the past two nights on the big fish. 120-220 pounders have been reeled on the boat. Both nights we had our shots right after dark. This big fish zone is pretty far from home so we’re making a move this afternoon to get closer to home and see what else is available.

Trip 13 – 3 Day Limited Load 6/24/2024
Good morning,
We spent the last 24 hours searching for larger grade fish to wrap up our trip. Yesterday afternoon, we saw impressive signs of 50-150lb fish and went from spot to spot. Unfortunately, we couldn’t get any bites, though we hoped our luck would change after dark. When night fell, they all vanished and we never saw a scale. That’s just how it goes sometimes. We’re looking forward to getting some revenge soon.

Trip 13 – 3 Day Limited Load
Good morning,
We had nonstop action throughout the night, scratching away on 20-60 pounders. There was a lot of stopping and going with plenty of bites. Tons of fun! When the sun rose, we went searching for bigger fish. We spotted some, but not enough to stay in that area, though it felt like more were nearby. With good weather on the horizon, we’re hopeful to get back on the meat.

Trip 12 – James Thomas Invitational – Day 2
Good evening,
Last night we had some great opportunities on the 40-to-60-pound fish. One large school and a couple of medium ones plugged us up with just about all we can keep. Left the tuna zone in search for yellowtail and bottom critters along the Baja coastline. Although the yellowtail has eluded us thus far, we had some steady fishing on reds, lingcod, and other creatures of the bottom sort. We’ve now switched gears back into yellowtail fishing to see if we can add a cherry on top to an already outstanding trip.
