The Makos have arrived! There back in San Diego to bite our flies and give us aerial displays. The kelp was great over the weekend as well with a great Barracuda bite with some Yellowtail and White Sea Bass mixed in. We hammered the Barracuda in La Jolla on Sunday. it was a blast on Eight weights.
I had a couple nice trips last week. The Barracuda are still around and biting pretty well and so are the Calicos deep in the kelp. My clients had two Yellowtail on the iron and many other shots. When the weather lays down its been great from 12 to 6 in the evening. I also saw quite a few White Sea Bass in the kelp while fishing for Bass. We just didn’t have the right gear ready and we weren’ t in the right position but it’s always great to see.
Fished the kelp yesterday and it has rolled over and dropped by 4 degrees overnight. It shut down pretty good from last week. give it a couple of days before getting out there everything is very unstable out there including the wind. Hopefully the next few days will settle everything down and well see the bite come back again. I also went on a trip out to lake Dixon on Friday and had a blast! we didn’t catch a thing because the water was so clear they just wouldn’t eat the fly. We could however see the bass on their beds and the trout cruising around it was like an aquarium, unreal.
Well were in the middle of our season change and we are waiting for the big makos to show. The Barracuda, Bonito and Bass near the kelp are biting really good right now. I was out in La Jolla chasing Yellowtail last Thursday they are definitely on the chew! The bigger Yellows are just below the islands and are biting very well especially on the calm days without the wind. Let me know if you want to go after some great fishing this spring!
Wow what a week the fishing has been nuts with all this perfect weather. The bay couldn’t be better with wide open bites! The Blue sharks are still thick with some more sightings of larger Makos starting to show up. Don’t forget about all the yellows down south either with wide open fishing all around it’s time to get out there!
