Another wild fishing day at Jurassic Park. Water was as flat as a pancake zero wind and 70 degrees air temp. As soon as we dropped in our lines it was like catfishing in a barrel. Double after double the big chili peppers came up. The pic shows some of the catch for the day. […] The post September 2 appeared first on Monterey Bay and Santa Cruz Fi...

Awesome Jurassic Park trip today with early limits for four (pic only shows some of the fish and missing one fisherman). Came in closer to shore for halibut but didn’t find any takers. Thanks Marvin (and his mother) for sharing the tasty pupusas! The post September 1 appeared first on Monterey Bay and Santa Cruz Fishing Charters.

Nice flat water for our afternoon halibut trip. Went down the coast where the halibut had been biting and trolled. No takers! Went to a Capitola reef and picked up some blue rockfish. Today was the last day for local rockfish fishing. Will open again May 2024. The post August 31 appeared first on Monterey Bay and Santa Cruz Fishing Charters.

Nice weather today for our local rockfish trip. Was slow at first then after an hour or so the bite went wide open! Lost a few lings in the melee too 🙁 Came home with five limits of blues and olives. Half the blues were pretty big too. The post August 26 appeared first on Monterey Bay and Santa Cruz Fishing Charters.

Local rockcod trip today. With the impending effects from storm Hilary catching close to shore was slow (too much ground swell). We moved out a couple miles to deeper water and found lots of blues and olives. Kept the best 50 for Syvia and her family. Came back early and had a great picnic on […] The post August 20 appeared first on Monterey Bay a...

Another trip out to the deep for Jurassic Park. Current was still raging and the bite was slow. After an hour we decided to try some new fishing grounds and found the fish! Started nailing green spots reds and chili peppers. Happy campers tonight! The post August 5 appeared first on Monterey Bay and Santa Cruz Fishing Charters.

Out to the deep reef shelf today and as soon as we dropped in our lines we had four rods go off with big yellowtail.

Drove around testing other fishing spots but the raging current was […] The post August 4 appeared first on Monterey Bay and Santa Cruz Fish...

Flat calm water for our deep shelf Jurassic Park trip today. We had to look around a bit for limits for five of chili pepper red canary and petrale sole. Perfect day on the bay. The post August 2 appeared first on Monterey Bay and Santa Cruz Fishing Charters.

Out to the deep again but this time the catch was difficult. Probably caused by the full moon and the ripping current. Got some fish but not enough of a bite so came in closer and picked up some lingcod and a few more rockfish. Lot of miles today and some quality fish.
