Deep Water Rockfish Fishing Report

Deep Water Rockfish Fishing Report

This was a 1/2 day fishing trip that we went out 12 miles for deep water rockfish. Shallow water rockfish is currently closed in San Diego, CA, and we are required to fish over 300 ft, where the big ones live.


On this guided fishing trip, we were bottom fishing using squid, live sardines and plastic swim baits.


It is generally great fishing for rock cod out in the deep water and on this trip, we caught limits of delicious cod, great for tacos and ceviche.  If you've never had FRESH ceviche on these fish...you're missing out!


The crew was very satisfied by the end of the fishing trip with a full bag of fish and some standouts like a big lingcod. Crazy how these fish are either brown, green, or blue in color depending on where they live.

If you'd like to join our fishing charter for rockfish around San Diego, CA, than give us a call and let's go fishing!
