Background
I have been fishing off of the California and Mexican coast for over 30 years. We are so lucky to have one of the healthiest fisheries in the world. At any time tuna upwards of 300 lbs can show up 15 miles from home. Yellowtail and Mahi continue to arrive in our waters starting in April and staying until November. As a proud fisherman and charter boat owner, I am fortunate enough doing something I love. I will always go the extra mile for my clients. I hope you come and join me. See you soon. Captain Ron
Techniques
We will always have live sardines or anchovies on our trips. Depending on the time of year and what fish are around, there are many methods we may use. For big bluefin tuna I enjoy flying a balloon with a flying fish. When we are offshore and paddy hoping, fly line sardines and throwing iron tend to get it done. While fishing the Coronado Islands for yellowtail and tuna we have had huge success slow trolling live sardines...
