Wow what a first week of fishing.
There is a huge spectrum of fish to catch out there now. Some days it's 60-80 lb Bluefin, then 100-200 lb Bluefin , the next it's 12-20 lb Yellowtail and Dorado on kelp patties, then 20-40 lb Bluefin and Yellowfin tuna the next! The local waters are full of life right now. We can't wait to get back out there this Sunday for our open 1.5 day trip!
Could be kelp patty Yellows, could be cow Bluefin tuna!
We can't wait to find out!
Hope to see you Sunday,
Team Supreme

Todays saying for the fleet fishing with us was "you should of been here yesterday". We fished in yesterdays hot yellowfin zone and it pretty much stunk. It was one of those mornings when you wake up to find 30 boats in one little area and an hour or two later you don't see another boat because we all panic and split up to find where the fish swam off to because they're sure not here. We had one kelp in the morning that had a good amount of tuna on it but it didn't bite well. We were getting them one at a time for a little bit before it quit. After that we didn't catch another tuna until after 5 PM. We found a little stretch of water there that kept our interest up. We started getting jig strikes. We found a kelp where we caught a nice little bit of tuna on and found an area of breaking fish that wouldn't bite. We were stopping the boat until dark.
The weather was great today. We're going to head down and fish the coast for yellowtails tomorrow.
Spent most of our day in search mode after spending 2 days on the beach. Late in the day the group effort was rewarded. We ended with 55 yellowfin (15-35 lbs) and 75 small yellowtail for 36 anglers. Some nice schools of bluefin were also seen in the same area. A 20,30 and 40 lb rod will be perfect.
