Up the coast for Jurassic Park today. Very foggy and a little bumpy. Got into some quality reds and blues. The post September 13 appeared first on Monterey Bay and Santa Cruz Fishing Charters.

Winds and waves are dying down in the tuna grounds. Looks like Thursday throughout the weekend is our best shot for albacore. It’s tuna time! The post September 2 appeared first on Monterey Bay and Santa Cruz Fishing Charters.

Out to the halibut grounds today and smooth seas but a wee bit foggy. Got to our honey hole and started drifting fresh caught squid. Brought home some nice halibut and big smiles. 11yo Jason from Hollister got his first ocean caught fish and it was a good one!

Tried to get back out to south rock but the afternoon winds were blowing too hard so puttered around looking for fish closer to port.

Things slowed down while we moved around picking up blues olives browns canaries and reds the rest of the trip.

The albacore fishing has slowed down and they’re farther offshore than a few days ago. Looks like we have to wait for when the warmer water comes back in. Probably 2-3 days from now. The local fishing for halibut has been good. Lingcod and rockcod are picking up too. The post August 29 appeared first on Monterey Bay and Santa Cruz Fishing Charters...

Local halibut trip today with a great group of guys from over the hill. South swell is in town and really knocked down the nearshore fishing. No halibut today. The post August 25 appeared first on Monterey Bay and Santa Cruz Fishing Charters.

Local rockcod trip with the cold water and strong currents with pretty much the same results as this morning. The boys had a blast but not much fish. The post August 24 – Afternoon trip appeared first on Monterey Bay and Santa Cruz Fishing Charters.

Off to Jurassic Park today with high hopes. Last time Donglin fished with us we had 150 pounds of lingcod and rockcod. This time the results weren’t so good. Water temp got very cold and we have a lot of current. Brough home halibut and a few rockcod. Sorry Donglin better luck next time. The post August 24 – Morning trip appeared first on Monterey...

Awesome trip to Jurassic Park today. Ran up the coast a ways and as soon as we dropped in our lines we were hooking up with nice quality blues reds coppers and seven lingcod (kept four).

Up the coast for our Jurassic Park trip today for our party of six. Once we got to the honey hole we started bringing in fish non-stop. Got our rockcod and a big fat blue lingcod and a big fat cabezon. What a great group of guys. Non stop hauling in fish.

Out to the local grounds again but the wind was blowing pretty hard. Moved around a lot and found some fish but not as many as we’d like. Had a great whale show in the distance with whales jumping completely out of the water. Incredible sight.
