Ran a bit offshore for our local potluck today. Water is still a little bumpy from the recent weather. As soon as we dropped in our lines it was a wide open bite! Got our fish early today.

After getting our fill of rockcod we came closer to port and tried for halibut. Beautiful day on the water. Great family […] The post June 9 appeared first on Monterey Bay an...

Headed out for a local rockcod trip and the water wasn’t very comfortable. Fish didn’t bite much but we came home with some rockcod. Great family and fun. The post May 18 – Morning trip appeared first on Monterey Bay and Santa Cruz Fishing Charters.

Our first trip out this season for local potluck. With the storm that just passed winds were big and seas were uncomfortable. Our group worked real hard to get the fish to bite and were able to get a few lingcod and rockcod. Kept two of the lings and the rockcod. Hats off to our […] The post May 5 appeared first on Monterey Bay and Santa Cruz Fish...

We’re still waiting for the official word when fishing season will open. I expect May 1st we can fishing for everything except salmon. Salmon will probably remain closed for another season. The post February 5 appeared first on Monterey Bay and Santa Cruz Fishing Charters.

Out to the deep for lings and things today. Got our bait then tried for lingcod but they weren’t biting. Ran up the coast for rockcod and did okay. Water was a wee bit bUmPy today. The post October 11 appeared first on Monterey Bay and Santa Cruz Fishing Charters.

Out to the deep today with high hopes of big fish. Mother nature had other plans for us. East wind made fishing difficult but we did manage to knock out limits of chili peppers and green spots. The post November 1 appeared first on Monterey Bay and Santa Cruz Fishing Charters.
