Saltwater Fishing Charter Report 10/28/2017 - Took out returning clients Danny and Tony on Sunday to complete the 2017 saltwater guide trips for the year. We shot out to the islands in beautiful overcast fall weather. Wanted to start the morning out trying to catch a white seabass. The boys had patience and we ended up finding a school that stuck with the boat and had double and triple hookups for about half an hour but unfortunately they were all about an inch short of legal size to keep. Either way it was fun on the light gear and they got to chase them around the boat and all three of them caught their first ever white seabass. After some batray, barracuda and calico bass bycatch, we decided to switch gears and the guys asked to catch lingcod. We made some sand dabs and mackerel and the guys made short work of limits of lingcod. With some time still left in the day, we finished off catching nice quality chuckleheads and starry rockfish for limits of those too before we called it a wrap. This was the last guide trip of the 2017 season for saltwater and the ranger will be back guiding stripers at castaic lake through the winter season. Awesome season for us and can't wait to see you guys when we start back in March!

Saltwater Fishing Charter Report 09/17/2017 – Today we took returning anglers Alex, Mario and nick out. We left at 6am and headed away from the cluster of boats leaving the harbor and we headed up the front side of Santa Cruz Island. Deciding to try and catch a surface fish first, we put out the troll rods and started to look for breezers. After seeing signs of fish but not just right it seemed like it was a time of day deal. We picked up one nice bonito on the troll then switched gears to rockfish as the guys wanted some fish for a fish fry. We worked very small spots and plucked at very nice quality chuckleheads, and red snappers. Ended up with limits of rockfish just in time to go back in the shallows in the afternoon. As predicted, the time of day and sunshine brought the surface fish up to play. Big breezers of bonito and barracuda were seen everywhere. We would slide in and the guys would be double and tripled up on wide open bonito and calico bass mixed in on every slide. The guys were very patient and stuck it out all day as we looked for quality not quantity and it paid off. Overall really fun day of fishing. You guys were a pleasure and can’t wait to fish with you again. – Captain Jake Klinshaw

Saltwater Fishing Charter Report 09/10/2017 - Headed out of the harbor at 6am on Sunday with anglers Rick, Tom, and Frank. Some unexpected weather made the crossing a little slower and after the guys suited up, we watched a beautiful thunder and lightning storm at a safe distance that made the crossing pretty neat. Really tough conditions at the island made fishing tough. The guys stuck it out in hopes of hooking a yellow. Really good sign of fish but the weather front had them lockjaw. Had one small halibut for their efforts. Switched gears and fished for bass in the boilers. The wind on the outside kept us limited to a small area that we could fish. Within it, The guys had a couple doubles and lots of single fish to be had but smaller grade and slower. Towards the last part of the day, we shot to the beach and had wide open bass fishing to finish off the day in a good note. The guys were very patient and it paid off. Thanks again fellas, it was a pleasure.

Saltwater Fishing Charter Report 08/13/2017 - Today three sportfishing boat regulars came out on their very first private charter on the Bahia. Alex, Jimmy, and Shawn were very excited and full of anticipation upon me (Jake) picking them up from the dock. Decent channel crossing in the morning but a little to breezy to make it to Santa Cruz Island so we cut it short and ended up at Anacapa island. The guys opted to give it a good shot at catching a yellowtail in the morning before doing something else. Saw lots of them but couldn't get one to eat a bait with a hook in it. Ended up with two bonito and two barracuda for those efforts. The guys then decided to switch gears and after promising their families a fish fry, decided it would be best to fish for rockfish and other table fare. We switched over, kept it less than 100 feet and had really decent rockfishing with nice quality and many species. The guys made short work of it and ended up with right about limits of rockfish, 10 sheephead, a few whitefish and a sculpin before saying they had plenty to feed everyone. For the last part of the day we switched up and fished bass in the boilers along the back of the island before calling it and heading in for home. Awesome day and even more awesome group of guys. Hope to see you again very soon! -
