Fishing Report - Sept 29 - Offshore to Mexican Waters

This chartered fishing trip was 30-40 miles southwest from San Diego region into Mexican waters.

We mostly used trolling spreader bars because we knew there were big fish around and it’s the best way to hook them on heavy gear. We also did some casting and live bait fishing. 

Lately, we are getting in the zone where the fish are at and trolling until we see them on the surface eating anchovy and dragging the spreader bars right over the the fish splashing around on the surface. We are also fishing live baits on kelp patty’s and casting on fish we see on the surface.  Sight fishing can be a blast!


The trophy catch was a 130# bluefin tuna. Had a great time with a great group of people.
