Fish Report for 5-26-2024

Offshore success!

5-26-2024
James McDaniels

34 anglers: 1 Bluefin Tuna, 9 Bonito.

 

Tomorrow’s trip is scheduled for the Coronado Islands and will fish there. We hope to find Yellowtail, barracuda, bass, bonito and rockfish. An islands trip on a holiday weekend is a great time to take the family out to enjoy fun in the sun in calm seas. We have plenty of room available if you’d like to join us tomorrow. Passports are required for this islands trip. 25-30 pound live bait setups and 40 pound jig setups with a selection of torpedo sinkers and some 2/0 hooks is all you need. 

 

Tackle recommendations for our upcoming offshore trips:

 

1. Yellowtail/bonito/small bluefin: A flyline setup with good fresh 30lb monofilament matched with equal test flurocarbon and 1/0 to 2/0 Gamakatsu nautilus or Owner mutu circle hooks. 

2. Medium size bluefin: A 40-50lb outfit with matching flurocarbon for sinker rig fishing using 4-6 ounce torpedo sinkers and heavy duty rubber bands. This rig is also great for 80-120 gram Daiwa Zakana jigs and Shimano colt snipers. 

3. Big Bluefin: 60-100lb outfit with a two speed reel to fish the sinker rig and 180-300 gram knife jigs. 

 

Departing seven days a week at 5:30am, check-in begins at 4:45am. Mexican fishing license included. Return times may be later than posted. Bunks are available and free of charge, please provide your own bedding if needed. No fuel surcharge
