While this crazy El Niño summer may be winding down, here are some highlights. Some crazy catches are still continuing: we are up to 19 Total Wahoo for the Landing and 2 Blue Marlin!

A few stops for us this week, too, on open water schools, but the big majority of our fish were caught on kelps. Mixed grade 5– to 12-pound yellowfin tuna.

Things you may have missed? The Helena caught a Blue Marlin shown below and then just a week later the Reel Fun caught one, the first time the landing has ever caught one in 45 years not to mention two.

Close to the beach, the excellent half day fishing continued. Great kelp bass fishing with some nice bonito mixed in there, and we’re still seeing some yellowtail along the edges of the bigger kelp beds.
