We have been catching kings and false albacore consistently, and coming across some smaller school mahi but all snapper season the snapper its hit or miss, but they are back on the near shore reefs and bitting. The last two trips we have cought some real good ones. One near 20 pounds and a 11 pounder and several mingo snapper and some short trigger fish. On severl trips we cought 30 to 40 pound jack crevel within just a couple minutes after leaving the dock. Photos from the last snapper trip in July and the last couple weeks. The two big snapper are from this week catch and release, closed season until weekends in September, October and November long weekends on holidays.

The blackfin had been showing up near the pasd so thats where we started and in the first 2 min. of trolling we hooked up double, but wrong species. After catching several false albacore we decided to move down towards the pier and didn't take long and we found a good king mackrel and several more albacore. So we made a decision to just keep working furter out and cought another king and finally we hooked up and knew wright away it was likely a blackfin tuna and was wright 26 pounds. 25 fish total , 1 blackfin, 3 king mackerel, a short amberjack ( season opens sept. 1st) 1 spanish, bite by barracuda, 1 barracuda, and 18 false albacore. What a awesome day,
