Bluefin Tuna Have Arrived!!!!!

May 1, 2022 San Diego

Well if you have not heard the Bluefin have arrived and want to play! We are seeing an unexplainable amount of volume. We are seeing fish from 20 to well over 200 pounds. Every 12 hour offshore trip we have had out opportunities to catch these fish, from live bait to throwing surface poppers at them! It will only get better but now is the time to book!!

The captain and deckhand were great. Put us right on the fish and can’t wait to book a longer trip. Great start to the season.

9 Hour Trip – Offshore Fishing

This was a great experience and the captain put us on the fish first thing in the morning. He worked hard all day so everybody could get one or two tunas. We will be coming back to fish with him and would recommend him to other groups.
