Fisheman's Landing Bluefin Report

3-29-2017
Carl Schmidt   
Carl Schmidt just called in from Fisherman’s Landing with an update from San Diego, CA. Today the Liberty is out on a 3/4 day offshore trip. They have 13 Bluefin Tuna (20 to 35 pounds) and 15 Yellowtail. Captain Taro is recommending a 25 pound outfit for the Bluefin they are catching today.

3/4 Day Yellows and Blues
Wednesday 3/29/17

UPDATE 3:15pm - The San Diego just called in and are up to 7 Bluefin Tuna now, but the grade of fish that they have been fighting this afternoon have been 70-120lbs.  They have hooked 6 of these big boys but have lost all of them to tackle failures.  Capt. Ryan suggest bringing a 50# or 60# setup for these big fish with a two speed reel and a fluorocarbon topshot. 


Time to pick up some leaders and  put on some fresh top shot

I've been thinking about getting a jet ski.

Nice and compact and you can deck them out with rod holders and a fish finder.

Only problem with that, last I checked, you can't operate them at night even with nav. Lights do a 3-4am departure or morning departure and night return is out of the question. Would be cool within 25 miles, local kelp and spear fishing though.
