Looking for action

Weekly Fish Report

½ Day - ¾ Day: It’s hit and miss on the spots of yellowtail roaming about in 160’ of water or so. When they’re found and eating, it can be an epic half-day trip. If not, you might wish you pinned to your favorite bump and soaked bait for rockfish or tossed plastic for calico bass or halibut. Though it’s hard to pass up January yellowtail so close to home you might try a ¾ day for better odds as the Coronados are still producing steady action.

1 Day to 2.5 Day: Boats fishing off Ensenada to San Martin are getting steady action on yellowtail, rockfish and lingcod. A few white seabass have been caught up and down the coast and conditions look good for their spring-summer run here in San Diego. The warm water and bluefin tuna are still holding in the Cortez Bank area and some boats have added trips to the area as long as the fish hold.

Long-Range - Baja: The long-range boats are enjoying a successful winter season at the Hurricane Bank with lots of yellowfin tuna to well over 200 pounds. On their way up and back, the wahoo south off Mag Bay are providing nonstop action and the yellowtail and white seabass at Cedros are adding to the variety. The spring yellowtail fishing in La Paz is early and exceptional after a no-show for the past several years.

Freshwater: The trout bite has been on and off sporadically. It seems a few days after the plants are the best, but with warmer than normal conditions and lots of sunshine, it is hard to predict. Last week, the best local producer was Lake Poway. Worms, Power-bait, mini jigs, spoons and spinner-baits are all getting results. Largemouth bass are showing in spring mode a bit early and watch for the shell-crackers working the bottom in 5’ of water around the brush.

Whale Report: This has already been one of the best years in a long time for sightings and close encounters with the Gray Whales. Along with the whales, large pods of Pacific Whiteside, some Risso’s Dolphin and even a few Orca have been sighted.

Trout Plants: 02/04/15 Poway (3000) 02/06/15 (1000) 02/10/15 Cuyamaca (1200) 02/11/15 Dixon (3000), Cuyamaca (1200), Wohlford (1500)
