26 anglers, Full Day Coronado Islands: 111 Rockfish, 3 Bluefin Tuna. We started the trip at the Coronado Islands and didn’t really like what we saw with only rockfish willing to bite, so towards the end of the day we ran offshore and saw some bluefin willing to play and we landed three. We are looking forward to spending the whole day Offshore tomorrow!

 

We have limited spots available on a definite go trip tomorrow fishing offshore for bluefin tuna. Reservations recommended to guarantee your spot on the boat. 

 

Tackle recommendations:

1. A flyline setup with good fresh 30lb monofilament matched with equal test flurocarbon and 1/0 to 2/0 circle hooks. 

2. 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. Passports NOT required. (We also have Coronado Islands trips on the schedule which do require a passport so be sure to check the passport requirements of your trip) Return times may be later than posted. Bunks are available and free of charge, please provide your own bedding if needed. No fuel surcharge.
