19 anglers: 95 big bonito (limits)
Incredible sign of big offshore bonito. Fun fishing on live bait and artificials.
Continue to bring the bluefin gear because you never know when they’ll pop up.
We need some more reservations for tomorrow’s trip and Sunday is a definite go with a light load so far.

24 anglers: 62 (8-15lb) Bonita
Saw some encouraging sign on our first trip out this week. Hopefully it’s a sign of things to come.
-Had a handful of fast and furious stops on some trophy Bonita today.
-Hooked and unfortunately lost a handful of nice yellowtail on kelp paddies
-saw some large bluefin tuna through our eyeballs and electronics
If you’re planning on coming out in the near future, these following setups are a great idea to have. In the event that we have a run-in with large tuna you want to make sure you have the proper tackle in hand.
Basic Tackle recommendations:
-assortment of flyline bait setups
25 or 30lb, 40lb test
-sinker rig/heavy lure 150-250gram
60-80lb test
Terminal tackle:
1/0-2/0 j hooks for kelps and small tuna
1/0-4/0 circle hooks for medium-big tuna
4-8oz torpedo sinkers and rubber bands
Colt sniper jigs (60-100 gram) and knife jigs (150-300gram) of various colors.
Definite go through Monday!
